Predicted A*A*B, got BBC. What's realistically still open for biomed in clearing

🙏 I WANT HELP

got my results and it went badly. predicted A*A*B, came out with BBC. firm was UCL (needed AAB), insurance was Edinburgh. also had offers from KCL, Bristol and york that I obviously turned down.

what I actually want to do is biomedical sciences, or something adjacent — biological sciences or neuroscience would both be fine. right now I'm looking at Nutritional Sciences, Sport & Exercise Medical Sciences as options.

so basically: with BBC, which unis are realistic for biomed/biosciences right now? I keep seeing conflicting stuff about whether the good ones drop their requirements in clearing or if that's a myth.

and has anyone here actually got a place at a uni that was way above their grades through clearing, or does that basically not happen?

pls help me in any way possible this is quiet literally heartbreaking for me i have to wait 2 days for ucas to update and let me know but yeah please let me know if someone has experinced this

im quiet literally shocked

also i did cie board thats why i got my resukts earlier
