bath or bristol?

im an international student applying uni for design/design engineering course, infamous but its a mix of both design/draw techniques based on science/math knowledges.
i already sent an application to cambridge / imperial. know have 3 more choices to go but maybe 1 with ucl, other 2 im not sure Imao but the bath / bristol has a high standard so im deciding of applying both of them or only one and other one uni with lower entry req. for safety

my predicted grades were 3A* (math, fm, design)
1A (physics), and bath has an entry requirement of AAA (dk why is it so high, literally higher than cambridge) bristol was A*AA, it seems like bath has more academic strengths but toh i dont like the architecture, and any other aspects. i liked bristol from their architecture and the name, i know bath is a good uni btw
does anyone know if i should apply to bath or bristol, or maybe both of them? im aiming to apply at least one of them until friday just because i want an offer real quick,

Bath offers a fantastic placement scheme - I'd choose that uni over Bristol. Bristol has too many students and some end up in halls in Wales!

Hi!
Just a bit of information about studying at Bath. Our Faculty of Engineering & Design has consistently performed as one of the best in the country, and we have a range of courses available (see here).

As mentioned above, we also have a great placement scheme. We have strong links with employers, and the placement year is a key feature of many of the courses here. Many students are offered jobs after carrying out their placements, guaranteeing employment after graduation. This is a major reason why Bath's graduate prospects are consistently excellent. Also, if you prefer Bristol as a city, it is very easily accessible (just 15 minutes by train) so you can visit whenever you please.

As you are suggesting, we always recommend putting a safety choice with lower grade requirements, so that is definitely something to consider.

Ultimately, it comes down to what’s most important to you. If academic experience is your priority, Bath is a solid choice.

Feel free to reach out if you have more questions or need more info!
