Dear Mr Nilsson,
Your request was received on 1 March 2021 and I am dealing with it under the terms of the Freedom of
Information Act 2000 (‘the Act’). You asked:
Could you please provide any data stored for the Engineering course:
1) If section 1 of the ENGAA is weighted equally as section 2
2) If section 1 of the ENGAA is weighted independently of section 2
3) If GCSEs are weighted in the application process
4) Percentage weightings for any and all parameters used for selection
We do not use weightings when assessing applications. Information regarding GCSEs is published at
https://www.undergraduate.study.cam.ac.uk/applying/contextual-data If you are unhappy with the service you have received in relation to your request and wish to make a
complaint or request an internal review of this decision, you should contact us quoting the reference
number above. The University would normally expect to receive your request for an internal review
within 40 working days of the date of this letter and reserves the right not to review a decision where
there has been undue delay in raising a complaint. If you are not content with the outcome of your
review, you may apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a decision. Generally, the
Information Commissioner cannot make a decision unless you have exhausted the complaints
procedure provided by the University. The Information Commissioner may be contacted at: The
Information Commissioner’s Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 5AF
(https://ico.org.uk/).
Yours sincerely,
Zoe Allwood
