If not is there any other universities that are good that you would recommend applying too with these grades as I have not got the slightest clue and will be applying soon

The minimum entry requirements for Bristol are A*AA or A*A*B unless you are eligible for a contextual offer.

I can’t say specifically for Bristol but the Unis I have visited have all told me that to be considered for an offer, you must have the minimum predicted grades for your application. I’d imagine Bristol would be the same given it’s a top 10, well regarded law school.

It’s a bit concerning that you’re applying soon & don’t really know about other law courses. No one can tell you where to apply but I’d say as a start, look at the UniGuide rankings, see which Unis appeal & then go to their websites for the entry requirements.

Most higher ranked Unis want A*AA or some are AAA, but there are others with less. You need to do some research. Your GCSEs are fine.

NB: You need to sit the LNAT, the National law test, for Bristol too.

Hi thank you for the help therefore I assume there’s not much point in applying but I am eligible for the contextual offer for schools on the list of state schools however I am not sure how far that will get me.
I have booked my LNAT it will be sat mid November.

And sorry for the confusion I am sure of the universities I will be applying to but I have not got a clue on weather my options are too aspirational with predicted grades of A*AB. Especially since it is difficult to find universities that will accept less than AAA. I just don’t want to get my hopes up and waste an application.
Current considerations:
Nottingham AAA
York AAA
Warwick AAA
Bristol AAB (contextual offer)
Kent ABB
Royal Holloway ABB

So, if you are eligible for contextual offers then you stand a chance, although I’m fairly sure many of the Unis still say you need to have the minimum ‘standard’ predicted grades to be eligible for a reduced offer. But they may be more lenient.

Some will accept the points equivalent - so A*AB will be the same points as AAA. I know York used to do this but has stopped for 2023 due to limited places & high applicant numbers. I’m not aware of others so you’d need to check their sites, they will say.

You can only just apply & see. You’ve got a couple of fallbacks there which is a good idea.

Is there no opportunity to raise your B? Could you talk to your teachers and see if you could work to try & raise it?

thank you so much I will check the university sites now.

And the B is in history in yr12 Mocks I got AAC(English,econ,history) and have spoken to him numerous times but he is set on the B which I think is fair given in class tests I always get Bs.
Therefore I will look into more universities with lower entry requirments
