I'd put durham in A but I'd def put KCL there too it's really prestigious. As for the B tier, I'd probably have to split it more since unis like Bristol and Manchester are arguably better than Sheffield and Cardiff but it's more or less correct.

What's the point? It's highly course dependent, and you need the right environment to perform at your best, which probably won't match your list order.

I stopped reading after Oxford

Exactly, according to Guardian, for Medicine: Dundee (1st), Aberdeen (2nd) and Edinburgh (3rd) came before Oxford (4th); and Brighton Sussex (5th) before Cambridge (6th); then it's Swansea (7th), Keele (8th) and St Andrews (9th). Leeds is 10th.
Right at the bottom, you have Hull York (33rd) in 3rd bottom, Manchester (32nd) 4th from bottom, KCL (31st) 5th from bottom and Nottingham (29th) 7th from bottom (there are 35 med schools in this list).

No, because this isn't measurable and is course dependent

I do agree with that its course dependant, but you can somewhat generalise them to tiers.

I don't think that really relates to it being course dependant though, that's just blatant inaccuracies, which happens in most league tables. For example, Dundee ranks higher than Durham for law, when clearly in every single aspect Dundee is inferior.

Another meaure: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-44413086 - salary discrepancies between unis - for Medicine and Dentistry Oxbridge is 7th or 8th for men, not even in the top 11 for women.

LSE is S tier in terms of prestige, many students in my year chose them over Cambridge and I regret not going.
Imperial is in the awkward place between S & A
