No chance for what? You have as much chance as anybody else if you choose your applications carefully and go for realistic choices.
We can't all be high flyers aiming for Oxbridge and Durham you know!

It just so happens we have a larger proportion of the 'lots of A' students, and those are the most likely to brazenly post where they are applying etc. The mere fact you are hear on a forum about your subject indicates your interest and that sets you apart from the masses.
