Applying for Glasgow Uni

Looking to study marine biology at UofG however I am confused about entry requirements. I have the S5 standard requirement to be reviewed for S6 however it is asking for 5As and the most that I am able to get is 4. Should i still consider applying or should i try to find other courses elsewhere as I am less likely to get in. The website is confusing me as it doesnt have set in stone entry requirements

Email or call the admissions department at Glasgow and ask them to clarify the entry requirements for the course.
