Are these the right A levels to choose for doing law at uni?

[Diya]

I really want to study law at Cambridge, and I want to take these subjects at A level:

English language
Politics
Spanish
Chemistry

Will these subjects help in getting into a prestigious institution and studying law there?

You'll need all A's at A level, and A*'s and A's at GCSE.

BUT, that won't guarantee you a place at all. You'll have to take an entrance exam and have an interview or two, which really only the best or really really wealthy people will get through.

It's extremely tough, which is why Oxbridge are such prestigious institutions.
