Our dd did really well in her recent AS mocks: Eng Lit A, History A, Media A and Music B. Her sixth form tutor has been talking about her possibly applying to Oxbridge to study English. This has come as a complete surprise to us - we knew she was a bright, motivated girl but didn't realise that she might have this potential - and we'll support her if she decides to follow this path. Her tutor did mention that her Media course - which she loves - may not be well-received by these establishments and she could consider continuing all 4 subjects for A2; she'd been planning to drop Music.
Would she be at a disadvantage applying with Eng Lit, History and Media?
TIA
