None. All you need is talent :)
A BTEC-referring to schooling education, is worth four GCSES. Different schools will vary in what subjects they decide to use as a BTEC. A good example of a BTEC is btec sport. This is where students are asked to complete several assingments and are graded as the following: Referal Pass Merit Distinction Distinction* A pass can give a student 4 C grade gcses A merit can give a student 4 B grade gcses A distinction can give a student 4 A grade gcses A distinction* can give a student 4 A* grade gcses Not every school will have the btec course so choose wisely. A BTEC doesn't consist of exams!
7-8 is average, some schools will go in for up to 10. Usually kids with insanely high numbers of GCSEs do them out of school, or do them early. In some cases they speak a foreign language at home, so its easy for them. I wouldn't worry too much about the number of GCSEs you take, just make sure that you get good grades. Universities look to make offers based off your A levels anyway. For more information see How many GCSEs link.
