Do I still have a chance at UCL/Warwick econ?

I'm predicted AAA (Maths, Econ, Bus Man) Ik this isn't enough but since the tmua is running this year, I was wondering what score I would need to compensate enough for my sub par grades as well as how much weight these unis put on each part of ur application

No chance

You don’t meet the requirement + these courses are super competitive

Unless you’re contextual and there’s a very good reason you’re not even predicted a single A* (especially in maths), please reconsider

You’d need something astonishing (no less than top 5% in the cohort - 8.5+) in the tmua for those not to be instant rejections

Also econ + business isn’t usually an acceptable subject combination?

I would drop the Warwick/Ucl idea. If you want to be aspirational, maybe go for Durham (A*AA) but again it’s heavily oversubscribed

Nottingham, Exeter and Bristol could be decent choices as well
