Biomedical engineering?

I'm in year 13, thinking about taking a gap year because I'm really lost on what I want to do.

One thing that's been interesting me loads is biomedical engineering but the only problem is I don't do maths. I do biology, chemistry, and psychology a-levels.

I know some unis do foundation years but would that be worth it? Especially if I had to apply after a gap year I'd already be one year behind, plus then adding the foundation year I feel like I'd be way behind in life, but then again, two years isn't that much I suppose.

Does anyone know any unis that allow you to apply with the subjects I have? Or any unis that do foundation years for biomed engineering for people who don't have the right subjects?

Or if anyone knows of any similar courses I'm open to suggestions too.

Thanks!

Alternatively, is there a way to get into a masters in it without having done a degree in it? For example could you be accepted onto a masters course on it with any other related degrees?
