Have you tried to talk your way out of that requirement? It's a long shot, but sometimes it works. Test anxiety, especially around math, is kind of common. Maybe you could demonstrate math competence some other way, by preparing a brief video lesson or something? Or using passing coursework? Offering to take a course?
Unfortunately, there are absolutely no exceptions. We either pass or don't. I'm just so disappointed in myself. I worked so hard to prepare for everything from the interviews to studying over 8 months and if I want to try again, which I won't, I'd have to wait until September to re-apply.

I applied for another Master's program here in the city so we'll see how that goes.
