I'm asking this purely because I want to know why I got an offer from this uni. I applied to UCL for BA Comparative Literature w/ Year Abroad. Entry reqs are AAA and my predicted UCAS grades are AAB. I've heard of ppl getting rejected from similar courses with predictions of A*A*A. Given that UCL is competitive I was fully expecting rejection, but they gave me an offer (AAA). I did not get an interview. I'm a UK student, not fluent in the language I've chosen (but take it at A level). I read some French in my spare time and I've taught myself how to read some Japanese and now starting to learn Hangeul purely for fun. I go to a state sixth form and I don't get contextual offers, nor am I from a socially disadvantaged background.
Does anyone know how UCL chooses their successful applicants? I'm just intrigued as to why they've picked me even though I don't even meet the basic entry reqs. Does this also mean that I still have a chance at getting in, even if I get my original grades of AAB or even ABB? I just feel like I don't really deserve my place and I have no idea why they've accepted me.
