I got predicted 9988777766, and ended up with 9999988888 in the real exam so ur predicted grades are definitely fine.

I think there are other factors they consider more when giving offers, as some people who were predicted much higher than me didn’t get an offer, so it depends.

What other factors would you say they take into account. Would your attendance and punctuality be taken into account?

Hi, LAES don't take attendance into consideration at all when considering your application. I emailed them last year when I was applying to ask exactly this and when they responded to tell me no I went on to bunk a ridiculous amount of school (my attendance was well below 70%) and still enrolled with no issues. I'm pretty sure they don't even get your attendance figure.

To answer your original question, I was predicted (around) and achieved (top 8):

98888888 (8.1 APS)
99988877 (8.1 APS)

For Maths Econ Philosophy and Politics.

I think you should be in a good position for your application since you're applying for all humanities, and even though nothing is guaranteed, I'd be incredibly surprised if you didn't receive an offer given those grades.

LAES here. Predicted 9999998887 but got 9999988877 instead. I currently do biology (9), chemistry (9), psychology (9) and mathematics (8).

Reference depends on your school and I'm pretty sure they don't get any punctuality records. If you were excluded they'll might be informed about that but I can't reason why your school would want to sabotage your application to a good school by putting that in your reference so you'll probably be fine
