How difficult is math in finance

I'm in my last year of hs. I go to a very math heavy grade deflated school, so the level is pretty high. However, I certainly do not stand out. I average a 6,5/10 in maths. I struggle not with concepts, but with high degree calculus because I forget a - or something similar. I do not want to be a quant. Can I still compete in finance? I am elite in every other subject.
