The attached appendix provides details relevant to your request. Please
consider the notices in red when analysing the data.
Please Note:
Data presented by UCAS cycle.
No qualification type matching the exact text provided matches our records
so we have instead counted here any applicant who inputted grade data for
at least one qualification at the point of the application with one of the
following names:
'IGCSES', 'International GCSE (9-1)',
'International GCSE (Double Award)',
'Level 1 /Level 2 Certificates (Ofqual-approved IGCSE, e.g. for UK state
schools)',
'Level 1/Level 2 Certificates Double Award (iGCSE for UK State Schools)',
'International GCSE',
'International GCSE (Double Award) (9-9 to 1-1)',
'International GCSE (Double Award) (AA to GG)'.
Where no UCAT score has been identified it is likely that the applicant
had not provided their UCAT score at the point of application.
