I don't think anyone will even consider you because of the B unless you apply to a foundation year or come from a disadvantaged background

Depends on the uni, but generally you have to take non science subjects. You may also be eligible for lower offers (that might allow B's) if you go to a really *****y school

Usually they say on the universities' actual website.

The best thing you can do right now is call up the universities individually and ask them, and do it ASAP.
I know when I was calling up for enquiries last month some admissions closed at around 4pm during the weekdays.

The teacher has to tell you or you don't know where to apply
