   • GCSEs can determine the sixth form you go to. Entry requirements for school and college sixth forms vary – ranging from four to five grade 5-4s, with 6-5s in the subjects you want to study, through to at least six GCSEs at 7 or above for the most selective colleges.
   • GCSEs determine the qualifications you take next. Some sixth forms may say you can’t do a particular subject unless you’ve got at least a 6 or 7 in that subject at GCSE.
   • GCSEs could be used to assess eligibility for a uni course. Regardless of the subject you want to study, the majority of university courses look for at least a grade 4 or 5 in English and maths.
   • GCSEs may limit the universities you can apply to. Some of the top academic universities (often belonging to the Russell Group) will ask for very high A-level grades – AAB or higher – for most courses.
