Are my grades good enough for Oxbridge?

Grades are an area of much misunderstanding when it comes to Oxbridge. Many students ask themselves; “What grades do I need to get into Oxbridge?” Many of you will have no doubt read stories before in the press about a student who applied to Cambridge or Oxford with 11 A*s at GCSE and 3A*s predicted for their A2s and yet, inexplicably, wasn’t given a place. It is crucial to understand now, that excellent grades are no more than a passport to your interview (and even then there are other hurdles such as the admissions tests for which to account). They are not a passport to success.
