Year by year

Round one is the figure most people mean by the points. Round two is what was left after the first offers went out, so it is usually lower and it is not a cut off for the year.

A dash means no comparable figure is shown for that round. It does not mean the course did not run or that no later offer is possible. Figures are read from the CAO’s published points charts. AQA means all qualified applicants were offered places. * means not all applicants on that score were offered places in that round. # marks a test, interview, portfolio or audition; v marks a new competition for available places.

It has swung through 138 points across the years held here, where the middle course of the 1,175 with figures in four years or more spans 47. It moves more than 97% of them, so last year's figure is a weaker guide here than it is elsewhere.

Comparable numeric Round 1 and Round 2 figures are held for 1 of the 7 years held here. Round 2 was lower in 1 of them, by at most 1 points. Marked new competitions are excluded. This history does not predict a later offer.
