How are your languages?
As with most UK unis (major exceptions being Oxbridge, and to some extent StAs), if you have the stats required, with a decent PS & LoR, you are likely to get an offer. An offer = an acceptance....except that it can be conditional on achieving scores that you won't get until summer.
She will have a fine PS in terms of structure/grammer/content as written (up to the reader to truly evaluate in terms of "likability"). Her LoR will be solid as well. Her HS currently has submitted 5 applicants over last 3 years, all 5 got offers and all 5 attending.
IR and French Jt Degree are intended courses of study.....opinion of her chances?
