Medicine application helppp

My school predicted me A's in all of my subjects except maths which they predicted me at a C for despite the fact I got an A at higher. My UCAT score is already pretty low so will this negatively affect my application? I really want to do medicine or pharmacy but this has me stressing

Have you considered taking a gap year and applying with your achieved grades? Other options may include foundation years (if you’re eligible) and clearing if there are spaces available for medicine or pharmacy. Since the deadline for medicine has passed already, if you are still considering pharmacy, I would try to challenge the school on that prediction on the grounds of you achieving an A at higher (if you haven’t already). It seems unusual that they would predict you a C, unless your performance throughout the year had been consistently weak until that point.
