Kia ora P

 

Further to my email to you of 13 February 2023 with our response to your
information request of 11 January 2023, it has come to my attention that
some of the data we provided to you was incorrect regarding the UCAT
thresholds for the 2023 MB ChB programme. To clarify, where UCAT is used
for entry, the thresholds for the 2023 MB ChB programme are set as
follows:

 

o Verbal Reasoning: threshold set at or above the 20^th percentile
o Situational Judgement: threshold set above the lowest 10^th percentile
o Scores for Decision Making, Quantitative Reasoning and Abstract
Reasoning were not considered.

 

I apologise for any inconvenience or confusion this may have caused.

 

As noted to you in our response of 13 February, we will be in touch with
the remaining information you have requested once this information has
been confirmed and is available.

 

Ngā mihi

Kelsey
