Failed Foundation Year

Hi so i failed my foundation year this year for my biochemistry course I looked at my options now and i think i will only be able to apply for uni for 2025 as clearing has basically closed and doesn't offer the course i like the entry requirements for my foundation year were D*D for my applied science diploma and B in my psychology i achieved that but because i did not have a chemistry a level i had to do the foundation year but because i failed now due to many personal circumstances I have considered anything else i would like to do but i am unsure to have the best and most possibilities i would need to have an alevel in chemistry and maths but i would have to fast track this in the next year has anyone who has done this advise me if doing both Chemistry and Maths is possible or even worth it for me i am thinking if i would be able to even do both of them and achieve Bs in a year.

Clearing is not closed yet and your grades are very good. Look around please if not there's next year. During your gap year take a job and focus on what you want to apply to.
