Strict Grading

How strict are the entrance requirements for sixth form?

For the 6th form I am going to you have to have a grade B minimum for the subjects you wish to study. But for one of the subject I would like to study i only got a C… I have heard that teachers can vouch for you to study that subject no matter what your grade you got in your GCSE exam. Does anyone know how likely this is to happen?
