Can I apply to an AAA Uni with my grades?

It certainly wouldn't be unrealistic to apply to one or two AAA unis if your other choices are AAB or lower.
Try emailing the uni to see what they say, some are more flexible than others.

I have just been predicted A*AB for A2, grades which are very obtainable for me. Would it be clever to apply for an AAA uni or will I be rejected straight away? Or shall I just stick to applying to <AAB unis

Apply for 2/3 AAAs then 2 AABs and 1 ABB (worst case scenario)

Good luck!

One tactic is to apply for 2-3 universities at first including at least one AAA and see what response you get.

However, if the AAA unis give you an offer then that will be the level they want. If you get AAA or better, then you don't have a problem; if you achieve your predicted grades of A*AB then your fate is out of your hands. It will depend on how many applicants have met their requirements, how many spaces are still available, and how you have performed compared to others in the 'near miss' category.
