Assessment procedure and data for English, Law, Economics & Psychological and Behavioural Sciences

The request was refused by Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge.

Dear Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge,
Could you please list the criteria and give the spreadsheets (for the last complete UCAS cycle for 2019 entry) that are used for each subject (English, Law, Economics & Psychological and Behavioural Sciences) to assess whether each applicant should get an interview and offer. No names need be in the spreadsheet but column headings of criteria and the actual data so it can be seen the level and scores of each student that is successful in obtaining an interview/offer. Any blank form used to by interviewers to assess during interview would also be appreciated.

Yours faithfully,
