Medical Admission Statistics for International Students

The request was successful.

Dear University of Dundee,

I am writing to enquire about the Medicine Admission Statistics (UCAS Code A100) for the previous cycles (2017/18, 18/19 and 19/20)

A) How many international students were applied to this course and how many of these applicants were interviewed and were given an offer?
B) What was the lowest and highest UCAT score of these international applicants?
C) What was the mean UCAT score of international applicants who were invited for an interview?
D) If possible, can you mention how the interviews would be carried out for international students for the 2021 cycle amidst the pandemic.
E) Is the personal statement assessed/given points or is it used as a part of the interview?

Yours faithfully,
Ramya Ganesh
