Help with uni application
I want to apply for adult nursing to uni of Nottingham, Birmingham, Kings college London but I’m afraid my grades being BBC will not be accepted as it’s one grade below the actual requirements, however I’m confident in my personal statement and I do really well during interviews so I was wondering If I can still apply

It is tricky to tell you the future as nobody knows it. The only way to know your chances is to go for it and apply.
Notts, Kings and Birms are 3 choices and you have 2 other options if those don't result in offers.
Good luck

by Kingston TrenyceHi @Rileyee11, it's worth going onto the official university website and having a look at grade requirements to gain a better picture of what's expected.

They've already done this. It's BBB.

Many unis make aspirational offers, and those asking for BBB are likely to be a bit flexible.
So long as your other choices are sensible, it's fine, (and even recommended), to have one or two choices slightly above your predicted grades.

If you’re confident in your personal statement and interview skills, I’d say go ahead and apply — sometimes passion and a strong application can make up for being slightly below the grade requirements.
