Do you have to be good at creative writing to study English?

Heya
I'm an ESL student currently in year 13 taking English Lang&Lit, Sociology and History. I'm quite passionate about English Language and Literature and would love to continue it at university level, but I struggle with creative writing quite a bit which is why I'm still debating whether or not it's a good idea for me to do so. My results are ABB, with the A being from English.
You'll be fine for literature, but english language contains some aspects of creative writing. Where do you want to apply? Check the universities you want to apply to as they'll usually list the core modules and the optional modules you can pick up, and see if any of them include mandatory creative writing (I'm sure they won't!).
