UCL doesn't even come close, the only other choice you have is Cambridge. I would wait another year and apply for Cambridge and Imperial.

Yeah but i could do just a Bsc at UCL. Getting a first should not be that hard and then go for Masters at Imperial or Oxbridge. This saves me a whole year and i think is not worse than doing Bsc and Msc at one of the other unis. What do you think?

I would apply to Manchester and Leeds over UCL.
Better student satisfaction, teaching, accommodation etc.

Then do your masters at Oxbridge. :smile:

If your goal is to do a masters at Oxbridge/Imperial I would get a first from those universities you want to do a masters at otherwise it is never guaranteed. Imperial has a 37% acceptance rate as opposed to Oxbridges 10%. I would suggest you apply for Imperial and wait a year, however you needs an A* in Maths and Chemistry and 2 other As. If you don't have those then apply for UCL.
