LSES Admission stats - MBChB

Paul made this Official Information request to University of Auckland

The request was partially successful.

From: Paul

Dear University of Auckland,
I was wondering about the median and minimum Gpa, mmi score and other stats for those who got into MBChB and Bachelor of Pharmacy in 2025.

Id like to compare this with other special pathways, such as rural. Thank you!

Yours faithfully,
Paul
