Your GCSEs are fine. Cambridge assess applications holistically, so as long as your A level grades meet the entry requirements, you won’t be disadvantaged. There are also other things they will consider, such as your LNAT, personal statement and contextual data. I’ll be applying to study law at Cambridge this year. Wishing you the best of luck in your A levels :smile:
