depending on the Oboe and reed, you can reach different notes. I have never been able to go above the f above the staff, but my teacher can go higher. On the lower side, you can go to the b flat right below the staff. If you have an extension, you can hit the a below that.

the range on a student oboe is B natural one space below the treble staff to F three spaces above the treble staff. on an intermediate or professional oboe the range stays the same except for the low B natural lowers a half step to B flat.

The oboe's range is from the Bb (below middle C) to the A almost six octaves higher. Most of the time, the oboe plays from low D (right above middle C) to high C (one octave higher).

C4 to F6. This is basically the fourth C on a piano and the sixth F on a piano from left to right.

Is the viola in the same clef as the oboe?

they are both Bb instruments, but they range of notes isnt. [][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][] Sorry, but that (original) answer above is half-false. The oboe most definitely is NOT a Bb (transposing) instrument. The Oboe is a CONCERT-PITCH instrument. The Clarinet may be pitched in a variety of keys; Bb today is the most prevalent, but the A Clarinet is (or should be) in the collection of every professional orchestral clarinetist. The Oboe's range extends down to the Bb (one whole step) below Middle C; the Bb Clarinet's lowest written note is the "E" below Middle C; because it is a Bb transposing instrument, that "E" actually sounds one whole step lower - "D". The oboe's larger, deeper cousin - the English horn - is a transposing instrument: in F. Its written note will sound a perfect fifth lower than written.
