Henley is almost certainly the right choice if you want to work in the private sector. 

Thanks, Duncan&nbsp;:slightly-smiling-face:<br><br>What is your opinion on Exeter? Does being in Russel group advantageous?

I don't think that being in the Russell Group is as advantageous as the faster placement,&nbsp; and the higher salary that results from Henley.&nbsp; Your goals seem to be focused on finding work, so put that first. Exeter certainly has several advantages, but Henley's clearly a stronger MiF.&nbsp;

Reading business school has been very respectable for many decades, the University has been a pioneer in management education in the UK and Europe and very ambitious done a few daring M&amp;A. It acquired Henley for example.<br><br>Locationwise Reading is much more accessible to London and the rest of the UK. You will come to appreciate it so much once you settle in.<br><br>Exeter on the other hand was respectable University, a bit older probably a bit more research-intensive just a bit and a member of Russel Group. But location-wise it is at the South West very beautiful very upper middle class but it is more difficult to access to London and the rest of the UK.&nbsp;<br><br>If you want to really dig up history, Reading was a college of Oxford University and overtime grew and become a University. Exeter was a college of Cambridge University and evolved to become a University it is today. the Exeter Business School is a younger and has never gained the ground. The MBA and management scenery in the UK is too competitive and the market is small and I believe Reading has gained real foothold over Exeter. Reading is more international and outward looking offering degrees in Asia and online.<br><br>Therefore it is a logical choice to go to Reading a substantially stronger school in academic, in terms of jobs and better for lifestyle as well. The Reading business school resources is impressive, probably only a few Universities in the UK can match the scale it offers, it has excellent degrees in every area of business such as Real Estate, financial trading/markets. Things Exeter can never match&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br><br>&nbsp;

So, from the above discussions should I conclude that instead of focussing on the QS ranking&nbsp;or the Russell Group, I should focus more on the FT ranking and the MiF Programme. Is it correct?

Yes, Yes &amp; Yes!

The QS MiF data are interesting, but the FT survey has a much higher completion rate and is audited. Perhaps a good approach would be to do some research on LinkedIn to compare the placement of graduates? See: How to use LinkedIn to find the best school&nbsp;www.find-mba.com/board/33571&nbsp;
