⑵British universities are slipping down the world rankings, with experts blaming the
decline on pressure to admit more disadvantaged students. Cambridge University, which
for many years was ranked the best in the world and for a decade held a place in the top
three, has now dropped down to fifth place, according to the QS World University
Rankings. Overall, 51 of the UK’s 76 institutions have slipped down in the rankings
since last year. The Russell Group members, which represents 24 of the UK’s most
selective universities, including Oxford and Cambridge, saw 16 dropping down in the
rankings.
