I am not sure what people are talking about here but in order of UK MBA
1. LBS
2. Oxford/Cambridge
Otherwise INSEAD is top.
Your chances of getting through MBB from LBS are greater than Oxford/Cambridge but having worked at MBB, there are plenty of recruits from other schools such as Oxford/Cambridge to
Post MBA, you would come in at Consultant level at MBB with a base of ~100k, sign on and 20-30% bonus.
Other Strat houses such as EYP, Strategy&, And boutiques pay around the £85-95k mark with sign on and bonus
Doing an MBA is beneficial if you want a career pivot, break from your job and build out your network (super important if you want to reach partner level in consulting that’s how you usually sell work) and general brand prestige.
Oxford is a good MBA and MBB is not always the holy grail. Other strategy houses are also good and can be a stepping stone to MBB in the future. Exit options from both are pretty similar
London MBB pay closer to £100k base+ signing + EOY bonus for post-MBA consultants

MBB from Said is quite difficult, not much of a target. Well behind LBS, INSEAD, IE, etc
I would like to work in strategy consulting in the short term and probably do in house strategy for a corporation as a long term thing.

D4, what about an LBS MBA? Does that also not grant you a premium in the UK?

Although not a 100% sure if it has changed lately
Hopefully someone can confirm this

Out of curiosity - Why do you want to do an MBA and pay that amount to earn around 10-15k?
D3: It's mostly driven by ranking for your subject but target unis are top 5 for subject and are on average oxbridge/Imperial/LSE/Warwick/maybe UCL. You could consider the rest 'poor' even though they probably aren't unless outside of Russel Group
