Chances of a conditional offer for Finance at University of Glasgow?

Hi, I’m thinking about applying for Finance at the University of Glasgow for 2026 entry and was hoping for some advice on how competitive I am.

Glasgow’s minimum requirement from S5 is ABBB to be considered for an S6 offer. I achieved ABBBB in S5, so slightly above the minimum.

For S6, I’m predicted ABB at Advanced Higher (Maths, Business and Physics), which would bring my overall profile by the end of S6 to something around AAAABBBB when converted using their equivalence (a B at AH = A at Higher).

Glasgow usually gives offers around AAAAAB by the end of S6.

Given this is it still worth applying to for one of my choices and how likely do you think I am to receive a conditional offer?
Any insight from current students or applicants would be really helpful!

normally you should look at their typical offer which for this course would be AAAAAB. I think they require English A and maths A though they would consider (BB). Your predicted grades can help a lot if your school has a good record of accurate predictions if not they will not be held with much weight. It is possible if you have a strong ps and references. I have a friend who got AAABB and got a conditional offer of (AB) tho was predicted (AAAB) - AH Maths and computing A, higher A and Higher B at a school with accurate predictions.
