Undergrad Tier List for London across Europe

This is according to the collective experience amongst my seniors as well as many posts on WSO and is particularly focused on BBIB/MBB.
Tier 1 - Oxford, Cambridge
Tier 1.25 - LSE
Tier 1.5 - Imperial, Bocconi, Warwick, UCL
Tier 2 - Durham, Edinburgh, Nottingham, KCL, RSM, HSG, SSE
Tier 3 - Bath, Bristol, UCD, Trinity, WHU
Tier 4 - Other Russell Group Universities + Mannheim, IE, ESSEC BBA, WU Vienna

T1-T1.5 = Target; T2 = Semi Target; T3 = Lesser Semi Target; T4 = Close to Non-Target

Is this comprehensive? Any corrections?

Edit : Added Manchester to the Russell group and replaced its tier 2 position with Nottingham, bumped RSM and HSG from Tier 3 to Tier 2, added UCD and Trinity to Tier 3, Added SSE and WHU and WU to the list, also gave a label for tiers

 

Drop Imperial to Tier 3 (they have a new bachelor that will take several years to arrive at a decent spot). RSM and HSG should be in tier 1.5. Drop UCL to tier 2.

 

Well, as we are excluding prepa/PGE it is pretty hard to land a job in London coming from French BBA or equivalent without an Msc. The ranking itself is not adapted to include French cursus as they are mostly 5 years (fair choice from the author as the topic is designed for foreigners). 

 

in Spain, ICADE and ESADE are way better than IE for undergrad in terms of everything. Just look at the placement. What is good about IE are its Masters in Finance, but not undergrad

 

UK unis are way too highly rated (besides Oxbridge, LSE, Imperial, UCL) vs continental unis. The way to think about it is there are 4 global targets (Oxbridge, LSE, Imperial) and then 2-3 additional targets per countries which are sinks for local talents
