Carry on with your other thread. @noblegiraffe posted useful info for you.

But surely you know whether you passed of failed? What does your GCSE certificate say?

The actual marks needed are whatever the boundaries were set at. There is no rule that says marks over X means a C grade.

Ask them, but if they state that require a GCSE pass then they are unlikely to accept passing one module. As a mature entrant they may well offer something like a functional skills in maths as an alternative entry route? At post 16 they would often allow entry without a pass in maths if you did functional skills alongside so hopefully there is a way around it.

Yeah will ask them just didn't wanna make myself look like a fool by doing so. 🙈 I'm doing open uni nursing so I will most definitely need it. They said they would have me do a two week intense math course and exam and if I pass then I continue on course so I was hoping I could wangle myself way out of it with that module 😭

You got 105 ums overall out of ? Is F foundation level, in which case the overall % to pass tends to be more than for higher. Grade boundaries vary each sitting.
