Are these realistic university choices

My school is making us apply through UCAS to unis at the end of next week
I want to study history
For my AS I got ABBB (The A was in history) I have dropped one of the B's
I am predicted AAB, but I am retaking one of my A levels so with hard work hopefully I can bring that up to AAA
For GCSE I got AAAAABBBC
The Uni's I am looking at are:

Reach: Warwick (AAA) and King's College (AAA)
Equal: Exeter (A*AA-AAB, hoping for AAB) and Sussex (AAB)
Insurance: Queen Mary's (ABB)

Please be honest! Thank you x

Yes, perfectly reasonable. But no, you don't 'have' to apply by the end of next week. Your school might have internal deadlines, but they can't coerce you into applying until you are ready.

Note - watch out for Exeter offering you their Penryn course instead of the main one in Exeter itself.

be careful over Exeter their usual offer is A*AA. The AAB will only be a contextual offer to certain people.
