What's more prestigious?

Medicine or Oxbridge undergraduate degree?

although there's overlap and areas where these two aren't very comparable, i'd say medicine. tell people you're at oxbridge and they may (not likely) assume you're posh/pretentious but most people respect (pre)doctors just for what they're doing

I think it depends on the Oxbridge degree.

These sorts of threads are bonkers. Who cares about 'prestige', really?

I have never in person met anybody that has talked in this way about degrees

Other people do when their teeth hurt and they run to the dentist
You missed the part where the dentist gets to small bad breath from like 20 miles away.

Neither - no-one with any sense considers 'prestige' when choosing a degree or a university.

Maybe both combined? An Oxbridge Medicine undergrad degree?

Why, why, why would you pay that amount of money for friggin prestige?!! You should focus on your passions instead of fitting into other people's shiny moulds.
