[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m the OP. PP here is right to not focus specifically on just one specific variable on its own.

I also need to go back to my original post. I should have included St Andrews alongside #4 here since this is a US focused list. Clearly St Andrews has a great alumni network in the US and it is very helpful for those coming back to the US after going to school in the UK.

I did not include LSE on purpose on the list since it is a very niche school. But this what the list should be when including those two.

1. Oxford/Cambridge
2. Imperial/LSE
3. UCL
4. Edinburgh/King’s/St Andrews[/quote]

Husband and I are both English. I went to St Andrews for undergrad and LSE grad while my husband went to UCL undergrad and Ivy grad and we have been in the US now for 20 years. My son is applying to 5 of these schools later this year (Oxford, LSE, UCL, Edinburgh and St Andrews) and this is basically how we are looking at it. Big difference if STEM vs Humanities, but the overall seems about right.

If DS gets in one of the 2 Ivy League schools he is applying to and Stanford he goes there. If not, then Oxford, then we have LSE, then St Andrews/Edi right about the same as some of the UC/GTown and USC.
