Idk about edge Hill or bristol too but they should.
However Exeter realise heavily on predicted grades if you search up Exeter scoring sheet 2024 entry you can see a Table there I Think last year they Need like 95? Im not too sure but it was quite High and AAA doesnt Go up to that score you can check if you are WP and maybe AAA maybe ok but I just would not recommend it

Which degree subject?
What are the entry requirements for the course you want to apply for at each of these Unis?

i was predicted an ABB and got into both exeter and bristol uni, so i believe it should! but this may also depend on course choice :smile:
What course are you applying to? What are the stated standard entry criteria? Does this match with the average tariff entry scores for the course (as identified in e.g. league table rankings)? Is there other relevant external data that would inform (e.g. for medicine, is there a scoring matrix or cutoffs)?

Your question can't be answered as it's simply to vague.

For example AAA would suffice (if not indeed be beyond the requirements) for most courses at Exeter for example, either explicitly (due to the standard offer being under that) or implicitly (due to the average entry tariff being lower due to them being more flexible in making offers and accepting near miss applicants). However there are some it wouldn't suffice for either explicitly (it's below the standard offer for a competitive course that tends to be less flexible on results day) or less explicitly (e.g. medicine at Exeter where in past years based on their scoring matrix for shortlisting, in order to be shortlisted for interview non-contextual applicants generally needed A*A*A* or A*A*A).

You need to be more precise in what you're asking (and it would probably help to contextualise that in terms of why you are asking so people can advise if it's such a relevant consideration in the first place).

You don't need to start a new thread, just edit your original post to say it's for medicine :smile:

I will also move this to the medicine forum now!

That said as I said, for Exeter medicine due to how they shortlist applicants even if you were contextual I don't think you'd be shortlisted (believe the cutoff for contextual applicants getting shortlisted was A*AA with a high UCAT score last year...?).

Bristol would be fine for predicted. Esp if contextual for Bristol.

However, it's all irrelevant until you can consider it in the context of your ucat. Bristol requires a very high score, and Exeter a high score in combination with high predicted.

When you have your UCAT post your Information in the "which medical school should I apply to uberthread" in the format of the first post as all the information is relevant to be truly strategic.

Generally speaking predicted grades at A level and PS are often the least important factors. GCSE and UCAT are v imp.

If any of your A levels or GcSEs are resits please also note them and the before and after grades.

BUT all med schools are different so all info needed to help.
