As someone who has reviewed applications, the "feedback" information can be brutally unhelpful as a "yes" or "no". Many firms don't go through the process of recording why someone has been unsuccessful, just that they have been. A SAR would not detail any automatic processes either and there would be no guarantees the decision was made on your academics. However, if a firm does score you against any criteria (many do), then this would be recorded and you could get these scores through if you did. So you will just take a bit of a gamble as to how much useful information you would get if you took the SAR route.The percentile will relate to any test scores rather than your application. You could get a very high percentile ranking in tests but still be unsuccessful if your application has not met the criteria of the firm.
