Hi all,

I wanted to ask that am I going to be likely to get an offer from uni if the standard offer is BBC and I have A*CC as predicted grades?

I've used UCAS historical entry grades data and it said that 100% of students with the grades I've entered were previously accepted

I'm just really confused at the moment because I technically do not meet the criteria for that second 'B'.

Thank you

the UCAS historical grades information is about what happened to people who HAD offers. It's based on actual grades not predictions because most universities don't put much (if any) weighting on predicted grades.

The only part that relates to your chances of an offer is the "2 in 3 applicants were made an offer" or similar section and that doesn't allow for predicted grades.
