We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.

Also, one needs to be in the the top 50 BOTH in QS and Times Higher Education. Thus, only 6 UK universities qualify at present: Oxford, Cambridge, LSE, KCL, UCL and Edinburgh. But as pointed out LSE only barely makes the top 50 in QS and could slip out.
Along with these universities, around 20-30 other universities make it to the top 50 of both lists, given below. The list of foreign universities is given below. Mostly from the US, but a few from Europe, China, Canada, Australia, Japan and Hong Kong.
It is hard for the IITs to compete with Chinese, Japanese, Singapore and Hong Kong universities. There are rich countries with massive education budgets.
