Dear FOI,

But I did not receive any Statistics for unsuccessful applicants although I have ever requested statistics for unsuccessful applicants with their BMAT and A levels results , in my original request. So please could you provide me with these statistics.

Please, could you carry out the formal internal review? If you don’t mind. And could you make the statistics in this response broken down by college without the need to make a new request ? In this case you will help me much because I really need these information and I can not wait more.

Yours sincerely,

Mr. Samir Yunus
