I wouldn't say do that at all! Apply, and I'm sure that you'll get an offer 🙂 Your predicted grades are amazing, so they will take that into account and they'd of course also consider your personal statement, references and interview, so if you perform well in those, I'm sure they'd still make you an offer! Worst case scenario (though I don't think this will happen), just have a backup university that isn't necessarily SUPER prestigious, but still very prestigious, like QM, Bristol, Manchester etc. I think taking a gap year might be worse than just going into another university 🙂 But still, APPLY, because I think you just might get an offer!

That’s still a good score. This year the cut off will
Be around 1900-1800 as long as it’s not a UCAT heavy uni. U will be fine. U think your score is bad because many people go on these social platforms and brag about getting 2200+ ( majority are lying ).
Don’t worry u will be fine
