Engineering Degree Help!?

Ok, Assume I get AAB and I apply for a uni which requires AAA, would they completely reject me or put me down for a foundation year (Due to subjects) which has requirements of BBB? Since the Uni has a scheme for people like me who don't take physics a level. If they rejected me for the main course would they move me down to the foundation year?

Subjects: Math, Comp sci, Geography

Universities, barring the very top few, are quite generous with offers. Just because you have AAB predicted doesn't mean they can't give you an AAA-A*AA offer.

No, I'm in year 13. ABB are my predicted grades (Around that)

Well then yes, they can give you an offer that's higher than what you're predicted. Besides, at a lot of good universities, a large proportion of applicants are given offers - at least 80%, quite often.
Does it say "typical offer" or "minimum offer"?
