You can email the uni admission teams and see what they say. But you’re still able to get in based on those grades, some unis once you get to interview will give offers solely off of the interview and will disregard the rest.

I believe Glasgow and Edinburgh said that they do at their open days. A lot of the new ones such as UClan, Aberdeen, Nottingham , etc will likely have lower grade boundaries as well

If the school says it’s a minimum requirement, it is exactly that. For vet med courses there are at least 10 applicants per place so minimum requirements are a tick box operation. If not met then it’s automatic rejection as they’ll have to reject a load that do meet the requirements so they will not think twice about rejecting those that don’t. Hence the need to check each schools requirements before applying.
If the applicant is eligible for a contextual offer ( vet school specific) grade requirements may be lower.Bristol will accept a B as long as another science is achieved at A grade for example
