GCSE grade requirements for uni

I’m looking into a uni that wants a 5 in maths, but I only have a 4. Would I defiantly not be accepted, or is it worth a go?

Which University and course?

Well it’s not really a specific uni, it’s just common for uni’s to want a 5 in maths instead of a 4, I’m just not sure if it’s worth applying to any that want a 5. I’m think of doing psychology.

According to most universities a 4 is a low pass and 5 is a high pass, majority take a 5. Although it would mainly depend on thew type of university you're applying to for example London-based want a minimum of a 5 or 6.

I just wanted to know the Uni because majority ask for a 4 (as it is considered a pass grade).

It's probably because psychology is a science and majority of science courses at Uni require a B in maths, and majority of Unis consider 5/6 a B. You might have a chance depending on your A Level predictions and the subjects you are studying, but some Unis might turn you down just for not having that 5 in maths as that is the minimum requirement.

Yeah it’s just difficult really, I’m looking at some uni’s that will take a 4 in maths and I’m doing psychology at A Level anyway. I’m not going to lie, my maths isn’t strong. I’m really confident with English but it’s just a matter of whether or not it would be a waste of time trying to apply to a uni that wants a 5 in maths, when I only have a 4. I hope that makes sense!
