You should be predicted at least the entry requirements for your subject, not lower.

Not really. You should be predicted at least the minimum entry requirements and your cause isn't helped by the fact that two of your three facilitating subjects are predicted Bs.

Even if I got 7A* 6A in my o levels and I am hoping to get 5 As in my As and giving a total of 6 subjects in A levels

Unfortunately....
No matter how good your previous achievements have been you have to fulfill the requirements. You have to have at least A*A*AB. As I said try to talk with your teachers!?

Firstly, if you get 5 As at AS, why would you be predicted A*A*BB? Secondly, please don't make the mistake of assuming that universities will be impressed by you taking loads of A Levels and will be more lenient with your grades. They wont. All you need are 3 A Levels, 4 are fine, any more than 4 is pointless.

Yes as no university can see where you applied to.

That depends on the cohort and the admissions decision made

Once again, if you're not predicted the minimum entrance requirements, your chances aren't going to be great.
