I need to pass gcse maths for uni

I got accepted into university for physiotherapy, under the condition that i provide evidence of attaining GCSE maths at grade C or above. (i only have a functional skills level 2 in maths at the moment) my plan was to take gcse maths in the summer but it’s now not possible due to the current circumstances. I have emailed the uni already but have received no reply. What do you think the chances that they’ll take the offer away from me, even though i passed the interview?

Impossible to say given how unprecedented the situation. Obviously I would be hopeful that they would allow you to take it at a later date if it's essential.

Bear with them as they will likely be operating with a skeleton staff with most of them homeworking currently. Feel free to call to follow up with them after a week though.

they replied to me saying they don’t have any answers right now. but told me not to be too concerned about it.

they also sent me a link to some equivalency tests, which my uni does accept. i guess i’ll have to do that then if they’re not scrapped too

Is level 2 not an equivalent or an equivalent test provided by the university. Also do you mind saying what university you’ve chosen? As I have a level 2 and want to do physio not now tho in two years when I finish my bsc.

Many universities dont accept functional skills Maths instead of GCSE. You need to check the university you are looking for policy on this.
