Predicted grades

I am currently predicted ABB but I would like to be predicted at least A*AA.
What do I do to convince my teachers I am worthy to get those grades as I am willing to work very hard for these grades from now.
P.S I take Politics, History and Economics

your predicted grades are given by your subject teachers based on evidence through year 12 (most importantly the mocks exams at the end)

Risks of inflating predicted grades
We recognise that sometimes you may come under pressure to inflate predicted grades, to give applicants a better chance of receiving an offer for a certain course. However, this is not without risk, and could significantly disadvantage them.

An applicant may receive an offer(s) they are unlikely to meet, leading to disappointment on results day.
Applicants might gain admission to a course which they cannot succeed in – choosing the right course is a very important decision as they will be investing a lot of time, money, and effort, and it can be difficult to change.
If a university or college has reason to believe that a predicted grade is grossly inaccurate, they retain the right to withdraw any offers.

The school used evidence your evaluate you, your school will not set you up for failure.
What course are you applying for?

Look at your ‘contextual offers post’, you want to do law. At Manchester it is A*AA so I understand why you posted this question. With contextual being AAA (https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwjSha7NnYCBAxUliv0HHfcIBqYQFnoECBAQAw&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.theuniguide.co.uk%2Funiversity-of-manchester-m20%2Fcourses%2Flaw-llb-hons-2024-da6cdd42cc8f%23%3A~%3Atext%3DTypical%2520Contextual%2520Offer%253A%2520AAA%2520We%2Csubject%2520areas%2520of%2520the%2520Diploma.&usg=AOvVaw3tsqnBy_HYPTeEI2hZfzau&opi=89978449)
Your ABB will get you to https://digital.ucas.com/coursedisplay/courses/5a3c1f28-e757-7898-0dab-e43388f5dbbb as it requires 120 to 128 UCAS points, ABB is 128 UCAS points.
Dont ask to increase your predicted grades,
Apply to any university for law that has entry requirements for your grades.

No good teacher will inflate your grades for no reason. I am accountable for my predictions - if students don't meet their offers because I inflated the predicted grade what good is that to them?
