<p>If you get a conditional offer from a school like Oxford saying that you need to get 5s on more AP exams, won't you not find out your scores on those Exams by July or so? Don't you have to accept offers from alternate schools before then?</p>
<p>In the UK students can accept two offers, a firm (first) choice and an insurance choice. That gives students a backup option if they don’t meet the conditions of their conditional offer. (And A-level results aren’t released until August, so July is plenty early for AP scores.)</p>
<p>If your second choice university is located in a different country, you have to figure out yourself how to make things work.</p>
