How likely am i to get an offer from St Andrews for a Classics degree?

my predicted grades are AAB and i would like to do Classics with Russian at St Andrews. what are the chances of me getting an offer? would i not get an offer if some people choose not to Classics with Russian?

Your last sentence doesnt make sense.

Its 17% if you view classics as similar to history
Its 50% if you view it similar to a language, so combine those to about 30%.

You stand a chance, but a low one. You need the other A.

I know that, but thats as close as you are going to get, which is your chance is small (assuming they do such a degree). Talk to St Andrews.
Most courses with languages don't get that many applications.
Anything 'with Russian' will not be overwhelmed with applicants.

Apply.
