I think it depends on the subject and the uni you are interested in.
But I think they require min. 3?

also depends on where you're going.
for example, i'm going to university in jordan. there they only require 2 A levels and 6 O levels.
so.. yeah, check the minimum requirements of whatever universities you're applying to, or if the country you're going to has a different system where they calculate your average and ask you to apply to unis with that.  although, jordan might possibly be the only country who does that. i don't know. i say check just to be on the safe side.

oh no i think freaked12 means York University in canada (i'm assuming so, because the Schulich school of business is part of York U in Canada)
i'm not applying to Canada, but a couple of my friends are, so you need about 5-6 O levels/IGCSE's and 2 A levels, which may be substituted by 4 AS levels (according to them, 2 AS Levels= 1 A Level)
so there you have it, i think you're good with 2 for canada, but for most decent universities in the UK, you'd definitely require a minimum of 3.

Yes...don't make the mistake of taking 2 A Levels...there are hundreds of people with 6-7 A Levels going to Harvard, MIT, etc....But most universities require a minimum of 3 (Cambridge: A*AA in its new system)...So I'd suggest you to take one more A Level...you could take IT or business or Further Mathematics at A Level...that would work  Smiley
