I spent a year as a grad student in Scotland. Met Plenty of graduates of Oxford and Cambridge there. Those two universities are clearly the top two in the U.K., which makes them very difficult to get into . So having a backup plan would be wise. Are you aware that there are other excellent old and historic universities there that are much easier to get into? Check out Edinburgh , Glasgow , Dundee, Aberdeen ,and St. Andrews in Scotland, ;Durham and various.campuses of the U of London in England; and Trinity College in Dublin, Ireland. There are lots more excellent universities there, but those are some of the ones that might best fulfill an American’s idea of a British university (though Ireland isn’t British).
