About
Partialle.ac.uk's pages couldn't be opened directly in this review; every le.ac.uk fact below is drawn from a summary of that exact official page -- it's le.ac.uk's own page content, not a third-party summary. THE rank 192nd (joint, 25th in the UK, 2026) is confirmed two ways: directly from timeshighereducation.com's own Leicester profile, and independently corroborated on a Leicester news article reporting the identical figures for the same edition -- the strongest-sourced field for this school. QS rank left blank: Leicester's own QS profile page explicitly labels its figure '34th in UK... in 2027 QS World University Ranking' -- the 2027 edition, not 2026, so not used. Guardian rank left blank: Leicester's own dedicated rankings page wasn't reachable, and no theguardian.com figure could be confirmed; a THE-focused Leicester news article explicitly states the piece 'does not include QS or Guardian rankings for this institution'. Student size left blank: le.ac.uk states only 'more than 20,000 students', undated. Tuition (2026-entry, from official course pages): BA English £20,200/year (used as the low end), BSc Computer Science £25,100/year, MBChB Medicine £30,150/year for pre-clinical years (rising to an illustrative £48,900/year for clinical years, excluded as an outlier). No official acceptance rate published.

SAT 1300+
le.ac.uk wasn't accessible directly. Two independent searches both consistently attribute the same figures to Leicester's own international-students Medicine page: direct-entry US applicants need SAT I 1300+/1600 or ACT 28+/36, plus 4 AP exams at 5,5,5,4 including Biology or Chemistry at 5. The page also lists a legacy 1950/2400-scale SAT figure alongside the current 1300/1600 one -- the pre-2016 scale is discontinued, so only the current figure is published, same don't-use-the-stale-half standard as the Edge Hill and Norland precedents. Treated as corroborated, not directly verified, per the Cardiff/Heriot-Watt precedent -- kept 'partial'. Tuition is tiered by year (search-corroborated, Leicester's fees page also wasn't accessible directly): £30,150 for years 1-2, rising to £48,900 for years 3-5, 2027 entry -- the first-year rate is published, same convention as the Bristol Medicine entry.

No direct requirement published
Leicester's USA-specific page wasn't reachable directly. A search of the same page surfaced a general-undergraduate figure -- SAT Math/Critical Reading/Writing sections at 550+ each, plus three AP exams, typically graded 4 or 5 depending on the specific degree -- but this is a per-section figure (550x3 does not map cleanly to a single composite out of 1600) and wasn't independently confirmed by a second, separate search the way the Cardiff/Heriot-Watt entries were. No direct SAT/ACT figure published given the single-source, subscore-only nature of what was found, and not confirmed specific to Physics with Space Science regardless. Kept at 'partial'.
