I wanted to know whether you think I have a shot at Oxford:

GCSEs

2 A*
7 A
2 B

A Levels:

Assuming I get say, ABB or better

In the general Economics, Business management, mathematical areas.

(Also, for this exercise, we can assume I pass the interview too.)
:)

Thanks.

It was definately lower, but they still Rejected me, whereas Strathclyde and Glasgow both had higher requirements, but both offered unconditionals.

I didn't apply anywhere else.

If you're a stuck-up pretencious assjack then yeah, go for Oxford and join the rowing squad or some gay-ass thing.

If you want to have fun at uni, bang lots of chicks and also get a decent degree go somewhere else.

The town is about the size of your knee-cap. But the Uni is as big as any other Uni in Scotland at least. They spend lots of money on lots of things and the night life in St. Andrews is quite good too.

Know why I'm not going to apply to St Andrews?

It's about the size of my knee cap.

Roughly.

Glasgow and Strathclyde = AAAAB
Edinburgh = BBBB

I'm almost certain, but can't be bothered checking

Yep, St. Andrews is about ten miles from Dundee (50-60 miles from St. Andrew's) and is one of the best Uni's in Scotland.
