Dear Mr Lee,

 

I refer to your request of 6 October 2021 for “information on entry into
MBChB through the biomedical science and health science (undergraduate

including 2021”. The University’s response follows.

 

“1. Lowest successful UCAT score and GPA for MBChB (undergraduate entry

2. Total number of international applicants applying for MBChB
[3a]. Successful number of international applicants for MBChB
[3b]. Highest UCAT score and GPA for unsuccessful international applicants

The information requested in parts 2, 3a, and 5 is provided in the table

2019 12 7 3 3
2020 8 8 6 6

Due to the low number of persons in the relevant category, the information
requested in parts 1 and 3b of your request is withheld under section
9(2)(a) of the Official Information Act, to protect their privacy.

 

There is no UCAT cutoff for interviews for international FY applicants.

 

You have the right to make a complaint to an Ombudsman if you are
dissatisfied with this response.
