'Best' is subjective. The higher ranked unis may be rubbish for some subjects. Or you may hate the campus.

And there are numerous other Unis that are are a far wiser choice for some subjects than anything that is RG.
And there are top Unis like Lancaster, St Andrews and Bath who never bothered to join in with RG - and it doesnt see to have held them back.

RG is just a nonsense marketing term - it actually doesnt have any real significance at all,.

What are the best and worst Russell group universities?

The rankings of Russell Group universities ( https://ahzassociates.co.uk/russell-group-universities-in-uk/ ) can change over time, and what's considered the "best" or "worst" can be subjective and vary depending on the criteria you use. It's best to consult the latest university rankings and consider your specific academic and personal preferences when choosing a university.

In general! Like in terms of quality of teaching and graduate employment for international students… I’m not asking about universities like Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, LSE, UCL, Warwick…. But other RG universities.

Ok, so here they are ranked: https://www.thecompleteuniversityguide.co.uk/league-tables/rankings/computer-science/all/russell-group

But it is meaningless because it constantly changes, it depends on which courses you are looking at and many nonrussell Unis are better at undergrad experience
