University entry requirements

I see the standard entry requirement on UCAS is AAA but then I saw the minimum requirement is ABB in A level, I that means I can still apply the course even I got ABB in my A level prediction?

Is it a minimum requirement or are those the grade boundaries for contextual offers? Not everyone is eligible for the latter.

Yes, you can apply with predicted grades and a strong personal statement and academic reference. Just be aware that universities mat not make an offer if they don’t believe you’re likely to meet their minimum academic requirements.

You need to email or phone that Uni and find out the criteria for the lower grade offer - contextual, specific A level subjects, or ...? Don't guess or assume.
