(URGENT) Where should I apply with an average UCAT?

Statistics:
Not contextual as far as I know (but my secondary was well below the local authority average for attainment 8, though I can't find universities which only need one contextual marker to be considered for it).
9999998877 at GCSE (9 includes Biology, and English Lang/Lit, 8s being Maths and Chemistry)
Predicted A*AA at A-Level in Chemistry, Biology, Maths
2720 B2 (7th decile?) and my VR was 650
England home student

So far I'm considering Liverpool, Plymouth, and Sheffield. Not sure about a fourth at the minute. KCL has some lower UCAT offers but they are potentially WP so I'm not certain it's a safe bet.

If anyone has any suggestions or wants to warn me of any of the universities I mentioned I would really appreciate it!
