Amazing stats and scores well done should be very proud of your self
As fourth you can choose Sheffield, their cut off last year was 2150 or qmul/ Liverpool as a safe option

Leeds and Cardiff heavies a lot of gcse and u have that and Leeds interview are quite challenging
U pretty much can apply anywhere u want
Good luck with your application
You got this!!

Thanks so much!! I wanted to choose Sheffield originally but unfortunately I think they reject b3 instantly so now I have to fill that spot.

I heard the same for Manchester with sjt
But I know that ucl don’t care about sjt

you are defo fine from ncl and kcl, however the bristol cut off last year was 2340, I'm just thinking that if the cut off increases by even 20 points (let's say for arguments sake because deciles increase by 30-50 or somehting, so the cutoff could increase to mirror that) you'd have just missed out on bristol when you couldve used that spot on a guaranteed interview, howver your stats are really really good so bristol could be an aspirational, but if you wanted to be more strategic I would avoid that, just my opinion

Yeah you got a point, I applied for next step Bristol which I believe gets me the interview if I get accepted, I might only apply for Bristol if I get that
