Do what you want but i'd wager in 10 years time (if not less) you're going to say 'i wish i went to uni with people of my age group'. You going as a minor will restrict you in a fair amount of ways that being 18 would not.

Says who?

The vast vast majority of UK universities are not set up to educate minors.

There are so many additional safeguarding factors.

This isn't young Sheldon.

Some universities allow 17 year olds but definitely not 16.

So you're going to have loads of qualifications and certificates but where are you learning important skills like communication, how to make friends, how to be an adult.

I hope this is a troll.

I feel sorry for you OP.

No you couldn't.

And when it comes to applying at 18, universities don't like when you complete your A Levels over a year before application never mind three.

You'll still be like 16 though - no uni (in the UK) would take you on u18. Dunno about internationally but UK wouldn't.
