My undergrads, looking to go to a Junior Year Abroad program prefer to LSE to either Oxford or Cambridge, even though LSE requires a full year and Oxbridge Colleges allow one to come just for a term.

Actually, I think we're number 1 in the universe.

* Latest university league table ranks LSE as third in the UK and as the

top London university

The Times Good Universities Guide published today ranks LSE as the third

best university in the UK, only behind Oxford and Cambridge, and as the

top university in London.

LSE has therefore climbed up two places, from being ranked the fifth

best university in the same league table in 2010, to third place this

year.

The School has improved in a number of the categories that are included

in the ranking, including student satisfaction, research quality, and

its student-staff ratio.

The guide also shows that LSE is the university with the most

undergraduate applications by place, with more than 14 applications for

every place.

Professor Stuart Corbridge, pro-director for research and external

relations, said: 'League tables like this can offer only a partial

snapshot of universities' performance and they must be treated with some

caution. Nevertheless, we are very pleased to see LSE rise to third

place in the university rankings overall, and to first place in London.

It is particularly pleasing to see the School's high ranking in terms of

research quality, which partly echoes the findings from the Research

Assessment Exercise of 2008, which found LSE to have the highest

percentage of world-leading research of all universities in the

country.'
