You know the stereotype that autistic people are good at maths,

Its actually true and their is science to back it up. So your autism should not be holding you back with maths. Having said that the education system and peoples ignorance of autism could lead to you having a maths anxiety which could cause you to struggle with maths.

It is possible to get up to university without a C in maths. I know this because I recently got accepted into a university to study film studies and I literally got the most terrible grade in maths!!

If you go for a academic course then you need maths but if you go for a more theoretical course then you can still get in.

Best of luck!

Some people just find maths very difficult it doesn’t mean they have a bad work ethic. And GCSE maths is more than just the basic numeracy you use every day.

My daughter was wondering which uni you are at? She has not completed maths and is currently in year 12 doing Phil Psy and English. She also wants to study into relations. Thank you!
