Their offer is AAA / AAB depending on how many sciences you study. Univerisities will recieve your alevel results a week before results day and already know who they are rejecting and accepting. Why would they go down to BBB for actual alevel grades where have you heard that from. They will give out offers for all students who have correctly met their offer. Only if they have spaces to fill )which will be very limited )will they give offers to those who missed their offer by a few grades.

‘Many students’ .. there was probably less than 5. Over 1000 people apply for optometry at Aston, TSR is not a representative sample. How do you know Aston emailed saying that? I highly doubt they would email someone and say they would go down to BBB on results day.

i emailed them about what predicted you can apply with and they replied saying minimum AAB with 2 sciences and they've sometimes given out interviews to those who are predicted BBB but rarely. this person has interpreted it wrong 😭
