Applying for a course with one grade higher entry requirements

Hi, I'm looking to apply for economics which requires A*AA-AAA at Nottingham however my predictions are AAB in Biology, Chemistry and Computer science. My area constitutes to one of lower academic achievement however I'm not sure whether it would be worth applying.

Are any of the factors on http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/ugstudy/applying/ourpolicies.aspx#Flexibleadmissionspolicy relevant?

Yes, very much so. My postcode also meets the lower academic performance section

If you were to get an offer then it would almost certainly be for either AAA or A*AA. I was offered A*AA despite taking 4 A Levels (lol)- idk why they are being a bit gay about it

Do you know of anyone that applied with AAB and received an offer?

my brother applied to nottingham for econ with predicted grades of AAB and was made an AAA offer a couple years ago

Which subjects was he doing? Did your postcode meet the criteria for underachieving?

i just checked on that postcode thingymabob right now, and yeah! our address comes up as a flag "considered to be an area of disadvantage or low progression to higher education". he did maths, economics and physics at a level, and geography til AS. he goes to nottingham and he really enjoys it, and sometimes i watch his lectures online from home since he lets me use his moodle and they're all super interesting too. you should defo apply!
