Concept of target isn’t as hard and fast in the UK - Leeds is a good enough university that provided you put the effort in the other areas (grades/interview prep/extra curric etc.) you will have a good throw of the dice (but by no means easy!)

 

If you do end up at Leeds (or any other "non-target" - not a big deal in the UK like US) make sure to take part in as much extra-curricular you can from day 1. Things like the student investment/corporate finance team will help you massively when it comes to spring week applications. Tbh if you get a good spring week under your belt going to a non-target won't hinder you at all imo.
