Are these GCSEs results limiting me a place at a Russell group university for law ?

Imagine I get predicted the required grade (or higher) at a level, will my gcse results limit me from Russell group universities for law ? ( I especially wanted to go to KCL or UCL but im pretty sure that’s out of the picture now )

My results :
English Language : 8
English Literature : 7
Polish : 7
History : 6
Sociology : 6
Photography : 5
Foundation combined science : 4-4
Maths : 4
Music : Pass

I WILL be putting on extra hard work at sixth form just if anyone is wondering.

KCL have no GCSE requirements for law. UCL ask for a 6 in English language and maths for the standard offer and a 4 in English language and maths for the contextual offer. Unless you are eligible for their contextual offer, you will most likely be rejected without a 6 in maths. There are not many RG universities that regard GCSEs highly for law. If you do not meet the GCSE requirements for a university, that is usually automatic grounds for rejection. Look at the university course page and check whether you meet the requirements. The universities you have mentioned both require the LNAT, with UCL placing a heavy emphasis on Section B and KCL disregarding it entirely. They are also both London universities, making them all the more competitive and oversubscribed.
