Greenhead College Mock Acceptance

Hi, so i have a question. In my October Mocks my grades are these
Lit - 7
Lang - 9
Maths Higher - 8
Trilogy (Triple Science
- Bio is 8
- Chem is 7
- Physics is 6
French - 7
Comp Sci - 9
Geography - 9
I have heard of how great a college Greenhead is and I don't know whether to trust the acceptance Grades on the website because surely many very smart students want to apply.
Do they also take these Oct mocks as what you will get in the real GCSEs or do they assume you improve about 1-2 grades?
Thanks

Your mock grades are used to make a prediction about what grade you’re going to get, but your predicted grades aren’t sent to the college until about March. Also, even if your predicted grades are a grade below the requirement they can make you an offer and you can accept it on results day if you achieve the required results. You’ve done well for your October mocks so I don’t think you need to worry, as if you revise enough this year, you’ll probably get 1-2 grades higher for the actual GCSEs.

I had a friend who was predicted all 8s and 9s and didn’t get a place and someone in my year had lower grades got in. On gcse results day a lot of my friends reapplied and ALL of them got in
