How is Manchester prestigious but has taken a big dip in Rankings?
Manchester is generally considered prestigious and performs well in international rankings, but has gone from a concensus top 10, to the low 20s in most national rankings.
I was wondering if anyone knew why this is, or if anyone knows if there’s an actual reason it’s declining, and if universities that seem to be ranking higher every year (eg: Sheff, Newcastle) should be considered more preferable.
