Dear University of Otago,

There have been plans from the Otago Medical School to remove the grade of ‘Distinction’ from the medical curriculum and to cease the award of the MB ChB with Distinction.

1. I would like to know if any final decisions have been made. If not, when a final decision will be made.

2. I would like the meeting minutes regarding this matter.

3. I would like to see communications with OUMSA (Otago University Medical Students’ Association) regarding this matter.

4. I would like to see both pros and cons for this matter.

Yours faithfully,
