Further to our letter of 24 February 2021, please find attached a report which provides summary statistics on admissions to the MBChB programme in 2021 as well as trend information for the last five years.

Please also note that the lowest GPA for a 2021 waitlist applicant for the MBCHB programme that was made an offer in the general graduate category was 8.5.

I hope this information will be helpful.

Thank you for your patience in this matter.
