Bham are apparently willing to accept AAB and a satisfactory performance in lnat? On the other hand warwick just want aaa, but they may be a bit more lenient on results day, but you can't bank on that. Bham is a nice uni in a nice area of birmingham, it has a great reputation locally and is a strong uni. You'd be living in a multicultural city, so if you like that, go for it. Warwick is a newer university with strengths in maths, econ etc. It is still respected, although not as old. You would be living on campus close to bham/coventry by bus/train. There are a lot of int'l students at warwick, but they are not the majority like lse. Just look at the course differences and decide for yourself.
