The youngest Nobel Prize winning activist from Pakistan, Malala Yousafzai has revealed that she intends to study at a British university and striving to get three As in her A Level exams to get enrolled at the prestigious, Oxford University.

"I'm in Year 13 and I have my A Level exams coming and I have received a conditional offer which is three As, that is my focus right now," She was quoted as telling to head teachers at the Association of School and College Lecturers annual conference on Saturday by the British media.

"I have applied to study PPE (Philosophy, Politics and Economics) so for the next three years I will be studying that."

At Oxford, the standard offer is AAA.

Malala did not reveal which college she had applied to, but previously said she had attended an interview at Lady Margaret Hall.

She also told the conference she would be juggling her studies with running the Malala Fund, an international charity which advocates for all girls to have access to 12 years of education, The Independent reported.

Speaking about her Oxford interview, she said: "It was the hardest interview of my life. I just get scared when I think of the interview."

If she does take up an offer from Lady Margaret Hall, she will be following in the footsteps of her hero Benazir Bhutto, the former Prime Minister of Pakistan, who graduated from the college in 1977.

Malala has been living in Birmingham since 2012, where she was treated after surviving an assassination attempt by the Taliban in Pakistan. She will be taking her A-Levels in history, maths, religious studies and geography at her school.

She received the Nobel Peace Prize for her work on girls education in 2014.
