Applying for law with BBB for an AAA course

Heya! Is it worth applying to Sheffield and Exeter law course, Exeter law with European study and Sheffield international law with BBB when the predicted grades are AAA?

I’m not sure if I’m up for the contextual offer as my home postcode fails but my school postcode fails the POLAR4 but passed the IMD Q1 or Q2?

Any help would be fab! Thank you! x

For Exeter, judging by their contextual offers page, I don't think you would be eligible, as they seem to base offers off your home postcode (though I could be wrong). In addition, your grades fall short of the contextual offer as well unfortunately.

The same also seems to be true for Sheffield (missing the contextual offers and the contextual offers being higher than your predicted grades).

As a result, I am really sorry but unfortunately it seems unlikely that you would get in. However, if you are applying to maybe 3 or 4 unis that are at your predicted grades, then choosing one of these as an aspirational is probably ok as you would hopefully have other places to go if you don't get in. Alternatively, if it is an option you are open to, taking a gap year and applying with achieved grades could enable you to have a better chance to get into these courses if you achieve enough to meet their requirements.

Better to be safe than sorry
