2 degrees are probably not enough for him to be able to make an informative decision without regrets.
University of life: where does this sit in the ranking I wonder....
To answer your previous question : Imperial College and Oxford. And you?

Hey, genius, do you think my real name is Mike Stanton? Doh! Just like your real name is "Quinkana Septic Tank". Now, what would you like to know about Imperial? Would you like me to describe the main Physics building, the course, the professors, its most recent Nobel prize?

Weren't good enough for Oxford as your first degree. Just kidding. Or do you find Oxford too parochial? After all, it's hardly a world class city. I'm sure you could describe most university's; you probably do all the guided tours and suck up to the deans and wardens.

And, before you insult, my grandfather has a chair at Christchurch.

He can describe the University because he worked there as a toilet cleaner.

Hey don't knock it. My mother was employed, well not quite as a toilet cleaner, but she enjoyed her brief vacation stint as a "scout" at Walden. Can't even remember the name of the college. My memory fades here. I'm sure Mike will correct me. I think it was one of the women-only colleges. How progressive.

She used to bump in to my grandfather's old cronies. Her partner went to Exeter. Seems all my family have connections, or stories about the place. Used to go there alot in the 80s.

He believes any education that is'nt at Eton and Oxford is second rate. He said thats one of the reasons he left OZ because no Australian University could be good enough for his kids.

University of Manchester? 73rd in world ranking. Not bad - and there was me thinking you were just uneducated and inarticulate; whereas you're just inarticulate.
