Pre and Post A Level applicants to Cambridge University
Dear University of Cambridge
I would be grateful to know the statistics for post A Level applications for the Undergraduate degree in natural sciences (Physical), i.e. applications from students who hold their A Levels at the time of applying (excluding mature students). Please provide the data over the last 5 years in a spreadsheet tabular format, specifically:-
(1) How many post A Level applicants applied to study Natural Sciences (Physical) each year
(2) Of these how many were shortlisted each year for interview
(3) How many were offered places each year
(4) The number of A* in A Level (A2) each applicant held at the time of the application
(5) The name of the college offered the place to each applicant
(6) Please divide the above data by type of school such as independent, maintained or other/overseas
Further, in a separate table, please provide the following data for pre A Level applications, i.e. the applications from students who are in the first term of their second year A Level at the time of applying (excluding mature students and post A Level students) for the same 5 years as above.
(a) The total number of pre A Level applicants
(b) The total number of places offered to pre A Level applicants
(c) Please divide the data by type of school – independent, maintained or other/overseas
Many thanks for your kind assistance.
Yours faithfully
Vivian Fung
