Predicted grades

Help!!

So I got my predicted grades back for my subjects BCC I really need them to improve. I’m aiming for AAA in psychology, history and Art. For my Art grade I can easily get that up during the summer through doing more work in my sketch book but for my other subjects idk how I’ll get the B and C raised to As please help. Is it even possible by the time UCAS is sent off or not?

Your school / college will need to see evidence that "A" would be a reasonable prediction for Psychology and History. You don't need to submit your UCAS application until January (although your school may insist on an earlier deadline). Do you have any mocks, end-of-topic tests, or similar between now and then?

Identify weak areas, Create a study plan, Seek guidance from teachers, Practice consistently

As above - and if that doesn't get your predictions raised, forget UCAS for now, just work your socks off this year, get the required achieved grades and apply in a gap-year. Nowhere does it say you can only go to Uni directly from school.

I moved school and was slightly depressed for half of the year so my mini tests arent that great however the majority of my History Germany esays were level 4 (out of 5) and for my tudor essays they were level 3. In my Psychology mock I went fom a D to a B in less than a month so Im hoping that will show them that if I have more time I can get to an A

Absolutely. Just keep working hard to show them evidence of improvement, and hence evidence they can use to more accurately predict your grade. :crossedf:
