Is doing 6 o level subjects okay? and will I get admitted to a level without Islamiyat?
also, Will 6 subjects put me at a great disadvantage when applying for ivy leagues?

Most A Level schools (or at least respectable ones) across Pakistan require 8 compulsory subjects (English Language, Mathematics, 3 choice subjects, Urdu (A/B), Pakistan Studies & Islamiyat). You could argue against Islamiyat if you are non-Muslim (alternative would be Religious Studies I guess).
Maybe talk to a few schools in your city and you might find some might be okay taking you on board as well but you shouldn't compromise on their repute, especially if you intend to apply abroad.

Secondly, ivy leagues are BRUTAL with their admission criteria and there is nothing certain with them. However, it's probably understandable that they receive applications from across the globe and not everything relies on grades either. It's all about building a portfolio for these schools and showcasing a good balance between academics, extracurriculars (to pursue your interests) etc.

Good Luck.
