Bristol vs Bath economics

Which one should I choose for my 5th choice? I am especially interested in employability, prestige, and which of these two is easier to get an offer on (lower applicant: offer ratio).
Bristol. It is a higher quality course. And it is great city.
If by 5th choice you mean a back-up, then neither. Both have A*AA offers so a bit ambitious for a back-up. Bath is good for employability, especially if you do the placement year - many people are offered jobs at the end of their placements so don't have the stress of job applications during their final year. Bristol is probably more prestigous, if that's something you care about.
