Offer from Warwick higher than the actual course requierements

Hi,
I just got an offer from Warwick for the Cyber security course. I need to get 28/31 points in my leaving exams, equivalent to A*AA, but the course is AAB (which is like 23/22 points); is there a chance that they'll lower my offer or accept me even if I don't get 28 points?

No their typical requirement is 36 points for IB.

36 IB points is indeed equivalent to AAB at A-level.

Don't think they are doing IB (as IB is out of 45 and their exams are out of 31)

I am from Slovenia and my leaving exam gives me an award kf Maturitetno spričevalo; at most unis AAB is equivalent to 22 points. 28 points is equivalent to A*AA. Everything is out of 31

Either they made a mistake with your offer or 28 points is what Warwick considers to be equivalent to AAB

Warwicks entry requirements for Slovenia are as following:
The Matura or secondary school leaving diploma is typically considered sufficient to undergraduate entry at grade level of 4 out of 5.
