Poor gcse grades

I did my GCSEs last yr I’m now in year 12
I got 76 in science, 6 in maths, history and Spanish
A 5 in English literature economics and computer science
And a 4 in English language
I really want do do accounting/finance in a decent uni possible Lowe ranked russel group, I do meet the gcse entry requirements but I feel like my grades are still to weak, I’m also looking into degree apprenteships I also meet the requirements but there so competitive I don’t think I stand a chance due to my GCSEs

I'm no expert but I don't think GCSEs are that important for a uni application
as long as you pass maths and english
I think personal statement and a level grades are more important
but don't trust me on that
(And those are still good grades, you should be proud of what you achieved)
