  Hi Salma,
  Yes, definitely. Usually for medical study, the minimum required grades are: AA*A* for top universities such as Cambridge and Oxford.

  Hi Maryam,
  We can’t tell you which group is better for you. However, we can help you to narrow down your options.
  
  First, please tell us what do you plan to study in the university? Once we have gotten an idea on your plan, we can help you to choose one group.

  Hi Jackie,
  Guess we have missed your message. However, you can’t change your entry even we answered you that time. You have to write the exam no matter how. If you didn’t score a good grade, just re-sit the paper again in the next examination session.

  Hello Khawaja,
  O Level part 1&2 would be year 10 & 11 in the British system. Some countries call it “Year” some call “Grade”. For example: Year 1 means Grade 1, also means Primary 1.

  Hi Yasin,
  You need to choose at least one subject from the Science group.
