I imagine that the people being rejected with 3 A levels aren't because 3 A levels aren't good enough but because the A Levels they chose is seen as too 'soft' for them. I imagine you want to study something surrounding Maths/computers so do the relevant subjects for that course and you won't get caught out by strict admission staff.

    Personally, I think the whole soft/hard subject debate is a load of rubbish. Someone good at maths isn't always good at writing essays but that's the system that Oxbridge have. In fact, I think Cambridge even make it obvious with a list of subjects they don't accept with Media being on the list. I'll see if I can find it again.
    Okay well it seems like ill likely drop it then, perhaps have a talk with my tutor.

    And yeah, i wanna do computer science, which according to their website i need a minimum of 3 As, and they want maths. Further maths and physics would be better but are not required. I dont think i would be very good at physics so i just went with the further maths and maths and chose computing (which is fun but im also good at ) So yeah. Thanks for the advice.

    Well in the end, if you think that media will affect your other subjects grades then drop it. If not keep it. It does no harm keeping it there. In the end it is just an extra qualification
