Dear Sir or Madam,

I am making a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.

I would like to know the figures for home applications and
acceptances by type of UK school/college and gender for the
mathematics tripos 2007, broken down similarly to the following
document (which gives these figures across all subjects)

http://www.admin.cam.ac.uk/reporter/2007...
- Cambridge University Reporter 2007/08 No 14 table 1.2

I would appreciate if you could clarify what is meant by
'acceptances' - is this the number of students who are made offers,
or who achieve their offers, or who turn up in October?

Thank you.

Yours faithfully, Irving Washington

ps. I am aware of the other data at the site
http://www.admin.cam.ac.uk/reporter/2007... ,
specifically tables 4.2 and 4.3 . These break down applications and
acceptances by subject and school type OR subject and gender, they
do not allow comparison between school types and gender.
