Mid UCAT- Is Imperial/UCL/King's still on?

Worked very hard for the UCAT, but I could never fully crack it.
2800 + Band 1.
I desperately want to go to one of the top 3 London Medschools, but am seriously starting to doubt if it is possible.
Predicted is A*AA incl. bio + chem.
I am not quite sure yet but I may have some extenuating circumstances (UCAS mentions full time caring responsibility and long term health issues as possibly being taken into account)
I know the average UCAT score last year invited to interview was 2930 for King's- if I do get extenuating circumstances would I be considered for interview at any of these unis?
and if not, where should I apply?
Obviously I am part of the first cohort where BMAT is scrapped- does this mean they will be more lenient on ranges for the UCAT or harsher?
Any help from offer holders/medstudents would be greatly appreciated.

Why are you so fixated on London's "top three" universities (whatever that means)?

In a nutshell KCL, Imperial and UCL are off the cards with 2800 at UCAT, as you're unlikely to be shortlisted for an interview. If you post your stats in this thread one of the helpers will try to give you other options: https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=7312527&page=344
