Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

In what ranking would you put these universities for Computer Science?

I'm hoping to go to these uni's on open days and whatnot, but I'm trying to gauge some opinions before I go visit them, so how you guys rank these universities for Computer Science admissions?

The universities -
Warwick
Manchester
Birmingham City
St. Andrews
Edinburgh
UCL
Southhampton
York

Thanks,

The below is my opinion based on outdated and incomplete information combined with rumors and stereotypes.

Warwick
York
Manchester
UCL
Edinburgh
St. Andrews
Southhampton
Birmingham City

Will say though, the St Andrews CS department clearly have a lot of money, it was really slick last time I saw it.

Birmingham or Birmingham City?

You can't go wrong at any of them.
Except Birmingham City.

Now based on where I'd rather live, that would go Manchester, UCL, Edinburgh, Birmingham City, Southampton, York, Warwick, St Andrews. But that's just my opinion.
