I'd say Liverpool. But tbh I'm biased as I applied there for uni and I just love liverpool as a city.
I don't think any of them would really be considered "prestigious".
I'd say Liverpool definitely.

I think if you can't spell prestigious you probably shouldn't be going to university.

That's a bit harsh, isn't it?
Why does it matter to your ego?

OK, everyone, you heard it - if you've ever spelt one word wrong in your life, forget university, you won't succeed, @socialist96 has declared it.

It's not about ego. The fact is that having a university with a good reputation helps you in getting a competitive graduate job.

Nah, it's just for when I'm applying for a job in the future, which one would make me more likely to succeed

The only things that are making me against it is the fact that it is much lower ranked than the other two in the league tables and the fact that many people have mentioned the teaching quality is sub-standard cause the professors focus more on their research
Which one has the most interesting course?

None of them are really prestigious, they're all similar in quality though. Liverpool is part of the Russell Group but it seems that in the past few years Surrey and Lancasters reputation has improved a lot and may continue whereas Liverpool will probably stay the same

I think that yes league tables are a good guide, but a GUIDE, to be used at your own peril, I wouldn't use them like the Bible in terms of choosing.

And who knows, not all teachers there are bound to be research led. If they do their job, and do it right, there's a reason why they're in the job!

Don't take my word for it, I'm only trying to balance out any slightly negative feelings you might have about Liverpool

(I would still say Liverpool though)
