True - If you're predicted AAA or AAB you might as well give it a shot. It's hardly wasting a choice as you'll have to narrow your offers to just two anyway.
Additional: this is based on the assumption you're not applying for medicine - which is so fiercely competitive it's easy for candidates to have no offers at the end of the application process. Also it assumes you want to go to Oxford or Cambridge - as well as being brilliant unis they're also very traditional so if you don't fancy wearing gowns for exams and formal dinning it might be worth looking elsewhere.
