Dear University College London,
I was hoping to amend my request to also include:
1) The mean number of 5's achieved and predicted at the advanced placement (AP) level for applicants made an offer
2) The mean number of 4's achieved and predicted at the advanced placement (AP) level for applicants made an offer
3) The mean number of 3's achieved and predicted at the advanced placement (AP) level for applicants made an offer

For this amendment, as well as the previously requested information, I would like to clarify that I am interested in data for overseas applicants only.

Thank you for your efforts thus far,

Phil Alexander
