Notts vs Bath

Between these two, 'reputation' is like splitting hairs. Both are excellent Unis.
Both are target Unis by employers, and Bath's management/finance courses will always mean that they attract those from that area. Bath's placement system is probably the best in the UK, and this would immediately add enormously to your graduate CV, whatever careers area you eventually choose. Bath also has fantastic sports facilities and even if you are not a 'sports person' a whopping great swimming for a lazy Sunday afternoon swim is always a bonus.
