How many marks are required for Oxford University?
Open University To apply to Oxford, students would need to have completed, or be studying for, at least 120 points at stage 1 or above, in appropriate subjects. We would expect students to be performing at the highest level, with at least pass grade 2.
Does Oxford accept AP exams?
Oxford College will grant up to 12 hours of AP credit according to the following guidelines: three semester hours of credit will be granted for each score of four or five on examinations of the Advanced Placement program of the College Entrance Examination Board.
Can I get into Cambridge with bad GCSEs?
No, of course it isn’t. Like all UK universities, they are mainly interested in your A level results. But they expect you to have 5 or more good GCSEs, including Maths and English, or an acceptable alternative.
How many AP classes should you take this year?
Take as many as you can handle without spreading yourself thin, and make sure you will have time to study for the ACT or SAT this year. An Ivy League hopeful might take 3 to 5 AP classes, while if you’re aiming for less-selective schools, 2 to 4 would be enough.
Why do Oxford require APS to be in a specific subject?
As noted by other answers, at Oxford you apply at the beginning for a specific course of study (e.g. biology or English), so they also want your APs/subject tests to be in subjects related to your course.
What SAT score do you need to get into Oxford?
Oxford asks Americans to have SAT scores of 700+ in Critical Reading and in Math, with 2100+ overall (this will probably change in a few years with the planned restructuring of the SAT). In addition, they ask for either three APs with a score of 5 or three SAT II subject tests at 700+ each.
