russell group university tier list

That you need to find a hobby

You put Oxford and Cambridge in the wrong order.

What's so bad about the ones in F?

And, if I am being totally honest, the 6 RG's in tier F should not be an RG in my opinion. Uni of Bath and St Andrews should be an RG instead of them.

what did you actually rank them on? like how 'good' they are in league tables and stuff?

You've put Exeter twice and left off Leeds by the look of it so already a bit dire...

Time for our weekly bickering about RG unis thread!
Also, why is Exeter on there twice?

what did you actually rank them on? like how 'good' they are in league tables and stuff?

Yes, I based my ranking on how 'good' they are, and to be specific, it is based on my opinion regarding their prestige, league table performance, name, employment prospects, etc.

You know the RG members are self selected and it's not an external measure of merit but a political lobbying group for those universities to essential act as a cartel within the HE sector, right?

I thought you said above that you didn't make it though? So how is it your ranking in that case?

Regardless of how they are selected, it is a measure of merit and most businesses and companies seem to hire from an RG. RG graduates dominate around 78% of most top companies in the city (something I read recently). You cannot disregard the fact that the RG tag on uni places a big advantage for a grad.
