The Complete University Guide has published its latest UK university league tables – and we've studied the data to compile a list of Scotland's best unis.
Each year, the respected guide publishes its UK university and subject league tables to help would-be students make informed choices.
The main league table is based on ten measures: entry standards, student satisfaction, research quality, research intensity, academic services spend, spending on student facilities, continuation, student-staff ratio, graduate prospects – outcomes, and graduate prospects – on track.
Scroll through our picture gallery to see Scotland's 14 universities ranked from best to worst – and see how they compare to unis across the UK.
