    I was stating the fact you get all A*'s and A's basically says you will do well at A Level if you do them.

    not really, its down to the individual - the grades you achieve are not neccessarily reflective of your capability. i'd consider myself very intelligent and able and I did worse than expected in GCSEs. thats because i didnt try very hard, yet for A-levels im obviously going to take them a lot more seriously as they're key to getting into university.

    Dw I'm not, but it is a fact that if you are really clever (Getting 6+ A* and the rest A, you cannot be dumb.

    Lots of people get 3 A's at A level now so Universities need to try and distinguish between the candidates and they do that by looking at GCSE results. The new A* has been introduced at A level which means that A level candidates can be distinguished between so maybe now they will look less at GCSEs but they are still important. 6 A*s and 4 As is the minimum Oxbridge will accept.

    It's all about the highest qualification you have

    You only need C's for GCSE
