Can I get into UCL or KCL with low GCSE

I feel like having low GCSES grades will affect my application ALOT the grades i got were: ABBBBBBCCCCC

My predicted grades for a levels are:
A*A*A,A-Maths, Computer Science, ICT, Welsh Bacc)

Though I’ll be getting contextual offers:
UCL Entry-A*BC
KCL Entry-AAA

Is there anyone who got in with low GCSE grades (for a ucl/KCL student)

I’m applying to Computer Science courses in both.

There are some aspects to your application that I feel make it less likely you will get offers though no one knows for sure. For one thing, your A levels subjects are quite narrow (Computer Science & IT will be seen as similar subjects) and also your predicted grades look very optimistic based on your GCSE grades.

You should make sure you have some safer Insurance choices in addition to UCL & Kings.
Just be aware that comepetition for these Unis is insane.
If you want a far less stressful 2nd year of A levels, simply don't apply.

Bristol, Bath, Warwick, Manchester etc are 'competitive' but at least you have a chance of actually getting an offer.

I guess so but I’m still willing to give it a try
