UK target universities

So I have been looking through this for UK target universities but everything seems to be about 5-6 years old does anybody know if there has been any updates in UK target universities for IB especially for undergrad

 

Top targets: Oxford, Cambridge, LSE, (+ LBS for grad)

Other targets: Imperial, UCL, Warwick

Continental targets: HEC, Bocconi, St Gallen, IE, Manheim (mostly for grad school)

 

Loads of threads on this. Basically, for UG: Oxford, Cambridge > Imperial, LSE > UCL, Warwick.

Gaps between them are marginal and some might argue UCL > Warwick, but on a per student basis I'm not sure that's true. Those saying LSE = Oxbridge are wrong; yes it's usually the most represented school, but the placement ratios are actually worse than Imperial given how many people are trying to break in. Classic problem of too many people going for the same thing and there's only so many LSE students that most banks want to take. Oxbridge still has an (slight, moreso for consulting than finance) advantage over the London targets. Other UK schools that might get you in with a bit of work (in no particular order and its highly variable depending on the bank): Durham, KCL, Bath, Nottingham, Bristol, Exeter, Edinburgh.
