Cap on how many students admitted

@Helenia @becausethenight @ecolier @GANFYD, might you know?

There are usually very few people repeating years, so would not have a big effect.
I doubt med schools cut numbers of applicants down, as at the point of making offers, they will not know how many are going to fail first year and be allowed to resit?

Thanks @GANFYD, that's what I was thinking too, but with how strict the caps on numbers are, I wondered how this gets managed and the impact on offers given out. There must be some flexibility in the system then!

This is why med schools are not keen on students repeating years, and many only give 1 resit (in Aug) and fail it, and you are out!

Oh I did not know that and thought everyone is normally allowed to repeat the year if they fail the resit!
