Undergraduate Medicine admissions: data on candidates applying with to A100 an Access to HE Diploma

We're waiting for Mr Singh to read recent responses and update the status.

Dear Newcastle University,

I would like to request the following data relating to the Medicine Course (A100) offered by your university.

I am requesting the data for candidates who received offers for one of the aforementioned law courses in the 2018/2019, 2019/2020, 2020/2021 admissions cycles (I refer to these candidates as ‘the offerholders’).

If the data for 2020/2021 is not available for whatever reason, this is understandable.

I request the following data for each admissions cycle:

1. The number of offerholders who were either planning to complete or had completed an Access to Higher Education diploma as their most recent qualification.

2. The average, highest, and lowest BMAT/UCAT scores (whichever is applicable) of the offerholders who were either planning to complete or had completed an Access to Higher Education diploma as their most recent qualification.

3. The average, highest, and lowest number of GCSEs of offerholders who were either planning to complete or had completed an Access to Higher Education diploma as their most recent qualification.

I look forward to hearing from you. Let me know if I can be of assistance in any way.

Yours faithfully,

Mr Singh

nrecman,

Good morning Mr Singh,

Thank you for your request for information dated 26/04/2021. Please see below for our response to your request.

Responding to your request would result in reporting small numbers (fewer than 5). This would create a risk of some individuals being identifiable. This information is therefore exempt from disclosure under section 40(2)/40(3)(a)(i) of the Freedom of Information Act (2000), as it is personal data relating to those individuals.

I hope that this is of use. If you are unhappy with the way we have handled your request you can ask for an internal review. Details of how to do this can be found at: http://www.ncl.ac.uk/foi/access/complain...

If you are not happy with the outcome of the internal review, you then have the right to apply directly to the Information Commissioner's Office for a decision. Details of how to do this can be found at: http://ico.org.uk/concerns

Kind regards,
