<p>Of all the information posted above, only this selection quoted is relevant to UK admissions, and only if you apply for maths, Chemistry or a related science. If you want to apply for English for example, these scores would be considered irrelevant (see posts above about being limited to the study of a single subject or “course”, which is chosen on application and is very difficult to change).</p>
<p>Honestly, these scores are not good enough for Oxbridge admissions (you can only apply to Oxford or Cambridge. Not both in the same year BTW).</p>
<p>There is basically zero financial aid in the UK for international undergraduates. Some international students do have aid which is provided by their own countries though. You won’t get anything from a UK university or government.</p>
<p>It seems like the OP is perhaps not seriously considering this. The main reason i am replying to this thread is this</p>

<p>This is exactly as described - it’s a STORY and NOT TRUE! There is another one going round on the web about throwing a brick through a window. There are videos of interviews on both the Oxford and Cambridge websites. If you google oxbridge interview questions you will find a similar site to this called The Student Room where many real questions have been listed. Interviews are exactly like tutorials are once you get in. An academic grilling. </p>
<p>I have written about my interview extensively in this site. I had to explain why the curtains were purple (electrons and all) and also i was shown a slide of some cells and had to explain why the cells contains lots of mitochondria (need lots of energy. why do they need lots of energy? they are muscles. Which mucles need the most energy etc etc). The cells were bats wing mucles. I wasn’t expected to KNOW that. I didn’t know the answer. It is more like a discussion with the interviewers leading you to the answer. To see how you think. But feel free to believe the crazy stories if you want to. I am sick of trying to argue against them. Perhaps I should stop and just be secure in the knowledge that anyone who believes such things clearly will not get in so shouldn’t waste their time applying.</p>
