Can I get into uni without nat 5 maths?

Hey, I'm in 5th year and got my higher results today, I failed nat 5 maths which I was expecting but is it possible to get into uni without it?
I think English and Maths are core subjects that you must pass at least at national 5 level.

I highly recommend resitting it as it will open up options for uni.

I had to go back and get my Nat5 Maths as I wanted to go into teaching. I was accepted for both Primary and Secondary but both required a B in Nat5 Maths. As you know, the exam this year was horrible. I was predicted and A but missed it by 3 marks, but happy I got my B!

I would certainly look to do it again this year if you can as it really would help. Otherwise it is down to the courses you're looking at.
