Is it worth applying to these Universities? (Am I being realistic)
I intend to apply to the following universities with these predicted grades: ABB in Maths, Business and Computer Science respectively.
I am eligible for contextual offers at all these unis and I have put the contextual grades first, then the standard offer grades.
Nottingham (Finance, Accounting and Management): ABB/AAA
York (Accounting, Business Finance and Management): BBB/AAB
Durham (Accounting and Finance): BBB/AAB
Surrey (Accounting and Finance: BBB/ABB
Newcastle (Business, Accounting and Finance w/ placements): BBC/AAB
Am I overshooting with these? I want to go to Durham, Newcastle and Nottingham especially.
I have 3 different relevant work experiences too.
Thanks

If you meet the contextual requirements then all of these are definite possibles, for sure.

Any reason for that? Have you checked whether each university transfers your application onto their normal accounting and finance degree of unsuccessful for Flying Start?

I haven’t checked if they transfer your application. I will do that. I only wanted to apply to one flying start programme as I would rather apply to 4 unis one apprenticeship just because if I were to get rejected from Newcastle I would presume I don’t have a chance at other unis. Also at Nottingham you get just ah Accountancy degree as opposed to Finance, Accounting and Management however that’s not a large deciding factor for me but I would prefer the latter.
