Dear Rachel,

 

I refer to your request of 30 March 2019 about the 2019 MBChB programme
under the Official Information Act 1982 (OIA). Your questions have been
answered as follows:

(1)    There was no set number of RRAS seats that are available only to
graduates.

(2)    There were 41 graduate RRAS applicants.  [Please note that our
response of 26 March 2019 to your earlier request for information
contained a typographical error, misstating this as 21 applicants.]

(3)    The RRAS graduate applicant who had the lowest GPA to receive a
first round offer had a GPA in the 6.50-6.99 range.

(4)    The RRAS graduate applicant who had the lowest GPA to receive an
offer from the waitlist had a GPA in the 6.50-6.99 range.

(5)    The unsuccessful RRAS graduate applicant with the highest GPA had a
GPA in the 7.00-7.49 range, as stated in our response of 26 March 2019.

 

Exact GPAs for individual students are not provided for privacy reasons.
This constitutes a partial refusal of your request under s 9(2)(a) of the
OIA. You have the right to seek an investigation and refusal of this
response.

 

Yours sincerely

 

Rebecca Ewert

General Counsel
