Admissions planning estimate

82.5% baseline · Low data confidence

Sensitivity range: 47.5%–99%. This is a modelling range, not a statistical confidence interval or a personal admission probability.

No usable provider offer-rate sample. Low-confidence prior from entry requirements or broad selectivity; UCAS placements are not treated as offers.
