  1. Results of a multivariable Tobit regression of A level tariff score on sociodemographic category of medical or dental applicant (N = 8180).
  2. Regression coefficients and their 95% confidence intervals (derived via bootstrapping) are given as standardised scores (in SD units). Each unit is worth a tariff score of 45 points. Pseudo R2=.025, Log likelihood -11315.
