Dear University of Auckland,

I have realised a mistake in my initial request.

Number 12 states:

Interview MMI cutoff for successful applicants (both FY and Graduate)

I would like to correct this to the following:

Interview UCAT cutoff for sucessful applicants (both FY and Graduate)

Take care,

Alexandar Majstorovic

Subject: Official Information request - RRAS MBChB Entry Ranks

 

Dear University of Auckland,

The University of Auckland uses the the scores of students' GPA, MMI, and
UCAT in order to determine which are given entry into the MBChB programme.
More specifically, the Regional Rural Admission Scheme allows students
from a rural origin to have allocated seats for them during the MBChB
entry process.

As a New Zealand citizen, I am requesting the following data for the years
of 2020, 2021 and 2022 for RRAS MBChB students;

1. Number of seats available (both FY and Graduate)
2. Number of seats filled (both FY and Graduate)
3. Number of total applicants (both FY and Graduate)

4. Lowest GPA for successful applicants (both FY and Graduate)
5. Highest GPA for unsuccessful applicants (both FY and Graduate)
6. Interview GPA cutoff for successful applicants (both FY and Graduate)

7. Lowest MMI score for successful applicants (both FY and Graduate)
8. Highest MMI score for unsuccessful applicants (both FY and Graduate)
9. Interview MMI cutoff for successful applicants (both FY and Graduate)

10. Lowest UCAT score for successful applicants (both FY and Graduate)
11. Highest UCAT score for unsuccessful applicants (both FY and Graduate)
12. Interview MMI cutoff for successful applicants (both FY and Graduate)

Take care,

Alexandar Majstorovic
