Can you apply with AAB?

Yes, I think so because it says you can apply if you don’t meet A level or gcse requirements for the 5 year degree

i don’t believe they use academics in regards to interviews apart from the minimum requirements. Probably just the number of contextual markers you have.

This is from their website. It says they do look at academics

Shortlisting for interview – Applicants are considered for interview based on relevant academic qualifications and non-academic criteria alone. We do not currently consider personal statements or work experience when selecting for interview

The Admissions Advisory Panel consider many factors when choosing who will be invited to attend an interview, including the number of places available on the course and the number of applications received, alongside the academic profiles of all of our applicants

Oh my bad, but then again looking at academic profiles could mean making sure applicants meet minimum requirements. I do agree they are very vague with how they score people. I’ll email them to see if I can get any kind of info.
