HELLO FELLOWS
I've been v cheeky and been v ambitious with my choices. I am predicted AAB (A in History, A in Classics, B in Eng Lit) and have applied to Exeter and Lancaster, which both offer AAB contextual, however have very high standard entry requirements. What do you think the chances are of me getting offers from either?

Are you asking if i qualify for contextual? If so, yes i do. AAB is the lowest contextual Exeter offer and the lowest contextual Lancaster offer -

BA History single honours (Exeter campus for Exeter), Main campus for Lancaster. I have a good personal statement that's been checked by the admins officer for Uni of Nottingham, do you think that will help also? -

Here is the example from English

There is really nothing to say what the reason is for History but my suspicion for is if you get grade A History you will get AAB but otherwise it will be AAB. Your best bet is to check with the admissions tutor -

Watch out for Exeter rejecting you for Streatham, but offering you Penryn instead. I would avoid the latter - the course has little choice of modules and most of the lecturers simply aren't in the same league as those in Exeter. -

Yes, that can't hurt at all.
