Have I undersold myself? BTEC National Diploma in IT aiming for D*D*D*

I've applied to Greenwich, Kent and Westminster, however I'm starting to feel like I could have applied to some much better Universities, especially in London.

Is there any that I should have looked at that accept/want/require high results in the BTEC IT and focus on Computing/Comp Sci degrees?

if your target grade is D* D* D* you could have applied for better university's. e.g university of Leeds, university of Birmingham. Both accept BTEC for a computer science course
If I were in your situation, I would withdraw the UCAS application, spend the next year getting an A Level in Maths (Further Maths AS too if ambitious) and doing programming projects and then aim for a top 10 uni. You can definitely do better than Greenwich and Westminster.
