University of Leeds Vs University of Sheffield for Aerospace Engineering

Hi,
I have 3 offers from these 2 uni's, 1 for an MEng (conditional on getting AAB) at Leeds and 2 for an MEng (AAA) and foundation year (BBC) at Sheffield. Im stuggling to choose between the 2 uni's. The course is Aerospace Engineering as I said in the title. I do maths, physics and psychology in my alevels and im in the grade range of A*A*B to AAC with the B and C being physics (meaning physics is my main deciding factor when it comes to grades). I am also applicable for Access to Leeds (A2L), which has some very good advantages and perks in favour of Leeds. Still i am not fully decied and would appreciate any insight on the pros and cons of each. My plan is to make Leeds my firm choice as otherwise i lose the A2L grade reduction and need an A*AA rather than AAB, and make the foundation at shefffield be my back up.
They’re both good unis.
Leeds is more modern, better developed, safer, and overall nicer to live in.
