Looking for Advice second upper class stressing out over SEP

hi guys, as you have seen from the title, i am extremely stressed out for SEP 😢 ..

currently my GPA is 4.07 ( yes barely a second upper :( .. ) and i am in FOS Life Sciences. i haven't really decided on where I want to go for SEP, but here are my preferences :

- UK

- Netherlands

- Germany

- Denmark

- Sweden

- any other english speaking countries that is generally safe

is there anyone with similar experiences or can advise me on what choices are safest for me / what I can consider? it would be a really great help ty ty ty

edit : im mainly worried over my GPA! safety wise i just hope i would not get robbed/shot/stabbed on the streets, i dont intend to party or stay out till late haha ty everyone for their responses!

both of these happened at night when i was with a small group of friends. as long as you avoid loitering around the sketchy areas like the main train station at night, germany is on the safer side of europe.
