Can I get into Durham with A*A*B?

I want to study English Literature at Durham and the grade requirements are A*AA - I’m predicted an A*A*B and I have an A* EPQ. Does anyone know if they’re flexible with their offers, or if I definitely need to bump my B up to an A regardless of multiple A*s? Any advice or theories would be appreciated :smile:

Have you see if you can get any contextual offers. if not these grades are still amazing just try and be consistent in getting the required grades.

My advice would be to pick Edinburgh over Durham. Edinburgh could ask for as high as A*A*A if they wanted to, but they don't so as to not appear elitist.
