A-level equivalents

Hi, I’m in year 12 and my predicated grades in the qualifications I’m doing are D* in lvl 3 Btec extended certificate, A in LiBF DipFS (and CeFS), 7 at IB HL geography, 6 at IB SL social anthropology. According to both UCAS and my teachers this would be the equivalent of A*A*A at A-level, as well as an A in an AS level. However I’m just wondering if universities will also value this the same way and if for example a course had entry requirements of AAA at A-level, my bizarre collection of qualifications would be eligible. Any response is appreciated as I’m kinda stuck atm and this really makes the difference between me getting into a good russel group and me getting into a mid tier uni

For all unusual qualification combinations, you need to email each of your intended Unis and ask about acceptability - before you apply.
