Lae Stratford Help

Hi I am currently in year 11 and dream to enrol in lae stratford and study Maths Physics and Economics . I have recently received my mocks and have some questions
My top 8 mocks:
Math- 8
Combined Science - 9-9
English lit and lang - 8 7
RS- 9
Economics- 9
Geography- 9
APS- 8.5

Q1. Do I have high chances of getting in ( I have no priorities)
Q2. Can I get predicted a 9 in maths if in my mocks I got 8 ( p1 7, p2 8 p3 8) I had done a lot of silly mistakes and know I can do better
Q3. Is life at lae stressful?
Q4. Will my 8 in maths (if it doesn't get predicted higher) affect my chances if I want to do Maths Physics and Economics

Thank you for reading, if anyone could respond honestly, it would be really nice c:

I'd say you have a good chance of getting an offer just based off your predicted. Pretty sure most of the people in my year at LAE got predicted around that

2.

That's up to your teachers. If you know you can do better - and make sure that they know that as well - then there's a possibility you can get your grade boosted

3.

Definitely at first - the workload was at least for me a big step up from GCSE, but you get used to it pretty quickly and honestly it's no worse than it would be doing A-Levels anywhere else

4.

I think the fact you're doing Econ GCSE (and predicted 9 in it) is enough to boost your chances by a lot. Hardly anyone in my year took it at all

Hi thanks for the reply and congrats on getting into lae, I do have some questions tho

1.

What were your predicted grades to get an offer from lae?

2.

What do you study?

3.

Is it difficult to change subjects on results day as I'm not sure if I want to do economics (maths econ and further maths) or dentistry ( maths bio chem)
