I did. Thanks a lot. I actually used the money saved up for something else. I will do the course later in a reputable institution. Thanks

Here, mate:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Alumni_by_university_or_college_in_England
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Alumni_by_university_or_college_in_London
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Alumni_by_university_or_college_in_Scotland
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Alumni_by_university_or_college_in_Wales
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Alumni_by_university_or_college_in_Northern_Ireland


For Oxbridge, remember you will also have to add the alumni list from the individual colleges to the ones entered for the university as a whole:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Alumni_of_the_University_of_Oxford_by_college
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Alumni_of_the_University_of_Cambridge_by_college



The numbers are different because people keep on adding profiles everyday.

Even the numbers I put in, I gathered a few months before I could be bothered to put them up. I could not be bothered to update before I put them up because I knew the numbers would change the next few days but I also knew the changes are unlikely to change the positions.

It is an idea of the positions that mattered to my point, not the exact numbers of alumni.

Looking at current figures (without me adjusting the previous ranks):

Rank. University (Number of alumni entries on Wikipedia)
1. Oxford (11679+)
2. Cambridge (9500+)
3. Edinburgh (2762)
4. KCL (1403)
5. LSE (1318)
6. UCL (1182)

7. Glasgow (947)
8. Durham (820)
9. Birmingham (761)
10. Aberdeen (558)
11. Manchester (567)
12. St Andrews (576)
13. Bristol (491)
14. East Anglia (485)
15. Leeds (443)
16. Imperial (416)
17. Queen's University Belfast (343)
18. Sussex (352)
19. Loughborough (322)
=20. Liverpool (298)
=20. Nottingham (298)


If you were to change the rank based on recent entries, St Andrews would move up to 10th. Aberdeen down to 12th.

Queen's University Belfast will interchange with Sussex at 17th and 18th.

And Nottingham will join the Top 20 by being joint 20th position with Liverpool.

Basically, not drastic changes from what I put up.

As I said in the post you quoted: "...[new entries] is more likely to have an impact [i.e. positional changes] outside the Top 20."

Thanks sagamite, very interesting how fast the numbers can change.

Have you seen this threadhttp://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=4057423 on TSR? The Golden Triangle and Edinburgh do very well again - would be nice to hear your thoughts on why those unis are so popular.
