my school has done me over with ucas, what can i do?

i sent my ucas off beginning of january but initially aimed to send it in november. i emailed my careers teacher, and any other necessary staff for help. i emailed nearly every week and never received a reply. i couldn’t find my careers teacher in person ever because she was always hidden away somewhere avoiding students asking for help. a form was sent out asking what predicted grades we needed so teachers know what to put. i take physics, computer science, and english and want to pursue a sociology degree. i needed ABB, and my last year mocks i got A in english, B in physics, and C in computer science. my ucas got sent off eventually because i gave up with asking for help from an unsupportive academy, and i found the careers teacher but upon approaching her politely i was met with nothing but a rude attitude. i applied to warwick, UoB, Leicester, nottingham, and aston, hoping to have warwick or UoB as my firm. i received an offer from aston. and today i have just received two rejections from warwick and UoB because my grades didn’t align with the criteria. i’m heartbroken and angry rightfully as my computer science teacher knows this year i’ve been working at a consistent B, also receiving a B in my latest mocks. however she’s gone and put a C, knowing i needed a B. yet when i attempted to discuss this with staff i never heard back or got a straight answer. i didn’t even know what my teachers put for predicted until after they sent off my application. considering my other two choices need ABB, this means i’ll get 1 offer and 4 rejections which hurts so bad. please anyone is there anything i can do because i’m so upset and disappointed with the lack of support i received.

Firstly don’t assume that you will get 4 rejections. Different universities use predicted grades differently, some universities don’t use them at all.
Did Warwick and Birmingham both state explicitly that it was your predicted grades? If they just said grades then it might have been an issue with your GCSEs. If you haven’t already then ask for written feedback from both. Are there any similar courses with lower requirements at either university that you would be interested in?

If you get ABB take a gap year and reapply.

i’m not in the best position to take a gap year. considering i had also taken one before going into sixth form due to some issues

The school prediction is confidential and based on their judgement of your maximum potential. See what offers you get and if you get the grades an opportunity will open up for you

i think it was a reason that was “your grades didn’t meet the requirements” or such. and the course i applied for was probably the course with the lowest requirements. my gcse grades were ranged from 6-9 so i don’t think that could’ve been the issue. i’m just very stuck. do you think it’d be good to look at apprenticeships as well now?

Predicted grades are not “confidential”. You can’t make a judgement on where to apply without knowing your predicted grades (for certain). Your predicted grades are the foundation of your UCAS application as that is exactly what unis will base offers off.

Sorry, I meant that the reference itself is confidential

Is no one else finding it crazy that this school is asking students what predicted grades they want and (I guess apart from this student) giving them that? I know inflation of predicted grades happens in most schools but this seems ridiculous and unfair.
