The tables are decided upon by employers. Who would ignore them? Also, why does Imperial, LSE and Melbourne do better than KCL, then?

You got it twisted.Too many Manchester grads - so more employers are going to approve and it's going to be placed higher than kings....as for ur other point....LSE, MELBOURNE AND IMPERIAL and awesome unis thats why

Well you don't say. It's a bigger uni.All I'm saying is that if someone had to recruit either a Economics Manchester grad or a Econ and Management Kings student. They would choose the latter.University of Manchester sounds so dull.

Manchester MBA school ranks in World top 30.

And no, employers don't think like that, they choose candidates based on grades achieved, psychometric tests, perosanlity and cultural fit etc.

If it were Manchester Met we were comparing to KCL, then of course the KCL graduate would most likely come on top. But the margin between Manchester and KCL is very, very small, and employers will not have a preference in this instance.

Not according to the biggest UK graduate employers. KCL doesn't even come up.

Yh I know employers take into consideration other factors....but lets assume uni prestige was the only discriminating factor left....they would choose kings.....sounds so much harder to get into prestigious kings...than old manchester

Looool they decide on these tables based on the number of employers that recruit.Warwick, Nottingham, Manchester just do a **** load of courses.

Oh, and so does Strathclyde and Loughborough, right? No, it's more than that. They test the graduates to see if they're the best.

Is it harder to get into KCL? For what subject? Entry requirements are similar at both unversities for many courses.

Kings still part of golden triangle. When general people hear the name Kings their legs start shaking with fear because their grads are known for intellectual ownage.Same with employers. One business grad from kings was interviewed by JP Morgan - the recruiter broke down in tears because of nervousness.They say a warwick grad came in next and she didnt break a sweatso my mind isnt changing mate.

Naa mate I don't do hypocrisy..... I stare at the truth right in the face - with defiance, fearlessness and humility..... Your argument is thus rendered redundant due to it's in-cohesive nature. Kings is better than Warwick - don't get jealous mate....it isn't healthy for your acne ridden heart.

I rejected Kings's offer for Warwick. You used it's in the wrong grammatical context. You suffer from the disadvantage of being wrong
