Applying to Astrophoria Oxford Foundation Year Chemistry 2026

Hi, i’m currently in year 13 and considering applying for the foundation year in chemistry. I’m currently predicated A* in chemistry A* in maths and DM in applied science. Worried about my GCSEs as there are only 4s-5s. I meet the categories 1,2,3. I also have done the cambridge chemistry challenge and the chemistry olympiad with both getting a bronze in. I am also on the student council at college and help out a lot. is it worth applying?
