The usual advice for your 5 UCAS choices is :

•

1 choice just above your predicted grades - you may get an offer but be prepared for No.

•

3 choices at your predicted grades - your most likely offers

•

1 choice several grades below your predicted grades

Btw, work experience is irrelevant for Law. Far more important is relevant reading etc - Law is a demanding academic course and you need to be able to show that you understand this and can grapple with complicated ideas and concepts.

What reading should I do to prepare for my application to study Law at the University of Oxford
You dont need to read them all - and you will find many of them at your local public library - ask the librarians for help - or 2nd hand on Ebay etc.

No-one can tell you if you will 'get into' any Uni or for any subject.
If you follow my recommendations above about making 5 sensible choices with appropriate entry requirements, you stand a reasonable chance of some offers - that is about the limit of certainty that you are ever going to get.
