Have you submitted your application? What grades do you anticipate getting in your highers?

I suspect you will have predicted grades as they get sent in by school, not by student. You may well get conditional offers where the unis will decide what grades they will accept you with.

Schools don’t always discuss predicted grades with students and students don’t see this on their application it is directly sent from school.

it's depending on your predicted grades and personal statement. i applied in s5 to those unis and i got conditionals from them all. my predicted grades were AAAAB, edinburgh and strathclyde wanted AAABB and glasgow wanted AAAAA. this was for pharmacology so it also will depend on the entry requirements of the course. hope this helps
