Withdrawing KCL application

I recently got my Oxford offer for law at AAA. I am predefined A*A*A and I have a good offer from York at ABB, is there any point to keeping the KCL application?

I'd advice to sit on it for a little bit longer so you can really weigh up which one you think will be the best insurance option for you, because once you withdraw from King's and accept your offers, that's it, you're done, there's no going back even if you regret it later. This might be a more academic consideration for you, as hopefully you do well in your A-levels and go to Oxford, but still, there is no rush in deciding things just yet, so take your time to ponder over your options.

Congrats on your Oxford offer, that’s amazing!
Realistically, you already have a top choice with Oxford, and your predicted grades match perfectly. York is a solid backup with a lower offer, giving you security. KCL could be worth keeping if you’re particularly interested in their course style or location, but it won’t give you any real advantage over Oxford if that’s your firm choice. Essentially, if Oxford is your dream and you feel confident, it makes sense to focus on that and use York as insurance; KCL isn’t necessary unless you want an extra backup or have a specific reason to attend there.

Hope this helped,
