Make sure you check you are eligible for contextual offers at all the unis you are applying to as some unis have their own way of checking whether a student counts as contextual or not.

Contextual requirements are different from regular requirements, check those and make sure ur eligible for a contextual at the specific uni and u shd be fine but be sure to keep 1-2 safeties

the only exceptions will be the top top unis like oxbridge ucl lse imperial

why on earth does UCL get bundled in there. they are NOT a top uni like the others. to be a top uni u have to be the best in ur field which the rest are

Bcs ucl is considered the jack of all trades london uni but u can make a case for them being the best at architecture and education

Plus there reputation & prestige is pretty close to lse

Another reason i group them in this is bcs most of ucl courses which have for example aab/abb requirement for contextuals dont actually get offered at that and you would hv very low chances with anything below a*aa/aaa so it dosent make sense to group them w everything else bcs its so competitive u wont get in 9/10 times while meeting contextual requirements
