You could apply to one aspirational choice at AAB, then three at your predicted and an insurance one to two grades below your predicted.

AAA means it's a competitive course. You can try as a reach, but be prepared for a 'no'.

AAB is less competitive and is more of a realistic aspiration, so yes do apply.

Please make sure you've got your other options as ABB or below (with at least one at BBB or below, so you've got something).

I might just try my best to get into a good uni and if not I’ll take a gap year and do best for alevels as my teachers are not helping with my predicted grades

So predicted grades mean something? You used a double negative. :holmes:

Conditional offers are usually based off of predicted grades so they are quite important.
In comp sci a 'good' university would be one that has the modules you want to teach and good connections to industry, because this will give you the CV experience you will need in a competitive job market.
(and where you would like to be living)
You could look at Surrey, Lancaster and Swansea, Newcastle, Aberystwyth, Royal Holloway
