I'm aiming for AABB this year so would I get offers from the Russell group unis if I achieve that?

Have you done your research yet?

Look at the unis typical offer for the course on their website.

If youe predicted grades matches or beats the typical offer offered by the uni then you should be fine

My A Levels are Applied Business Studies, History and Politics- 1/3 facilitating subjects. I have offers for History from Durham Uni, Newcastle, Leeds, Lancaster and Aberdeen. 3 RG's. The most important thing is grades, not subjects for most courses. Saying that my UMS average across my subjects was 97.5% at AS, but my point still stands- do well in them and you'll get an offer from at least one good uni. AAAB would, of course, be better than AABB, but you should be fine.

What subject are you applying for and what are the entry requirements?
If you get AAB, as you are aiming for, you'll probably get into most courses that have an AAB requirement or lower.
