Grade Requirements

I got a conditional offer from the University of Birmingham to study law, the requirements are AAA, I just finished my exams and I think I'm going to get A*AB. Are my chances of getting in terminated? I am an international student as well if that helps.

First off, well done — AAB is still a great achievement! 🎓 Universities can be flexible, especially if you're just one grade off and have an A in the mix. Since you're an international student, that could work in your favour too — unis often take a more holistic view for international admissions.
It’s definitely not a guaranteed rejection. If Birmingham is your firm choice, they may still accept you, especially if your personal statement, references, and predicted grades were strong.
If it’s not looking certain on results day, consider calling them directly or having your school reach out — sometimes a phone call makes a difference.

Hello @analytical-curta
Ultimately, no one currently knows what grades you are going to get. Not you, not the exam boards and not the universities. What the grade boundaries are and what your grades turn out to be depend on various factors such as student performance overall for the relevant subject matter. Therefore, it cannot be said whether or not your chances of getting in are terminated; some universities can be flexible.
My advice would be to take this period from now to A Level results day as time to rest, relax and enjoy the summer holiday, even go on a holiday if you are able to. After results day everything will get much busier as you start preparing for university, so take a well-deserved break now.
I hope this helps. If you have any questions or anything at all please do let me know.
