Six IGCSEs is too few, isn't it?

I'm only doing six IGCSEs. The three sciences, math, English and Arabic.

I'm afraid I'll be at a disadvantage in University or Sixth Form applications because of this. (I want to go to uni in england).

It's too late now to take another one (exams next year, can't make up a whole year's worth of studying for a subject).. I regret having not taken a seventh option, but our school doesn't have much in the way of options. French, ICT and Art are what we can take in addition to the six I'm doing.

Art is rubbish and useless & hard, ICT has classes after school meaning you've got to stay in school for an hour and a half after the day's done, and French.. well, I wanted to do French. My parents made me drop it out of fear that it would "hinder my performance on the other ones" as if such a concept makes even a lick of sense.

Anyway, am I in trouble? Is this going to affect me much when pursuing higher education?
