Dear Liam

 

I refer to your request of 13 January 2020. The information requested in
paragraphs 2 and 4-5 of your request does not exist as 2020 MBChB
admissions have not yet been finalised. These parts of your request are
refused under section 18(g) of the Official Information Act. For 2020,
there were 52 RRAS seats available, and there were 41 First Year
applicants and 41 Graduate applicants in the RRAS category. Interview cut
off for RRAS applicants for both First year applicants and Graduate
applicants was 7. You have the right to make a complaint about this
response to an Ombudsman.  

 

Yours sincerely

Rebecca Ewert

General Counsel
