Low ucat, where should I apply??

Hi, so I sat my ucat a while back and got 1820 B2 which I know will limit me in terms of where I can apply. In my GCSEs I got 9’s in chemistry, physics, history and religious education
8’s in biology, both English's, maths and music and a 7 in German. I am predicted A*A*A in bio, psych and chemistry and I am non contextual. If anyone has any suggestions on where I should apply it would be much appreciated!!

hey, im in a very similar position to you. i got 1830 B2 on my ucat which is basically the same score as you. your gcses are a bit higher than mine, mine are 9988887777. im considering keele (they score based on ps), hyms (they score using gcses, ucat, sjt band, and contexual), and leicester just because i live there, but ill most likely not get in.

if i were you, i would defo try to apply to unis who emphasise gcses when selecting applicants, as you have very high gcses.

if i can ask, whereabouts would you like to go uni, or are you happy with anywhere? because there are unis like queens belfast which use gcses to score applicants but its obvs a bit far (for me anyway)

have a look at birmingham, nottingham, and leicester (leicester scores using 50% gcses 50% ucat).

hope everything goes well. if you have any advice for me too, id really appreciate it (:
