Can you get into UCL computer Science without an A* in maths?

I got an A in chemistry and an A in biology in AS , predicted A* in both- but got a B in maths,

I’m really scared I won’t get in to UCL.
Computer science at most universities of that calibre is a necessarily mathematical subject, and so they will primarily be looking at your grades in maths and perhaps related mathematical subjects (e.g. physics). I think you can fairly safely rule out UCL as an option if you are only predicted a B in A-level Maths. Even if you are predicted an A* an achieved B at AS Maths could be seen as concerning. The entry criteria specifically state an A* in A-level Maths is required so if an offer is made it will almost certainly include that requirement.
