It depends on the context of them; If you go to really high acheiving school no However if you have not or your gcses have been made harder to do due to familly problems... ect prehapes.
However GCSE Religious studies and Citizenship are not well respected and are viewed as 'soft' subjects so mmay well put you at a disadvantage.

I got into grammar school with 4A*, 5A and a B. So, yh, you are fine. But the C may put you at advantage.

No m8, A*'s are for scrubs. Need 2 grades higher to be considered decent.

in my school i have to do rs and citizenship. They are part of my core subjects. However, due to my coursework in citizenship, i can get A overall if i get C in the paper. The grammar school i want to go to is on points system.

I applied at a grammar school they want at least 4 C's and 4 B's but you need to look at the specific subject requirements at what you wanna do

well, idk what my schoool were smoking, but they predicted me A is everything, 8 in maths and english
Tbh it depends! I got a friend who got a A in Econ for Mock and ended failing in Final because he actually cheated in Mock. Also it depends how your mock is compared to final year...
