Ppe and gcse grades
Is it realistic for me to be applying to unis like; KCL, UCL, LSE, and Warwick, with slightly low GCSE grades, but high alevel predictions and a lot of work experience, and a few supercurriculars.
(For my gcses I got 8’s in rs, history, spanish, 7’s in chemistry, biology, english language, maths, 6’s in physics and english literature)
I am predicated 4A*’s in my alevel however??
Need advice as London unis have been my dream, especially KCL

I think it depends on the A-levels you’re taking and the course you’re wanting to apply for. I think it will also be worth reading on UCAS / the university websites to see their entry requirements because some may be stricter than others. Double check but don’t be discouraged !!
I know someone who had similar GCSE grades to you that applied and got into KCL for Medicine. 4A* is amazing congratulations !!
If you’re in Y12 and starting your personal statement definitely talk about your work experience and supracurriculars because that’s something they’re definitely looking out for. Talk especially about what you learned from it / how it helped you etc.
Goodluck !!
