What is a Russell Group university?

The Russell Group, in their own words, 'represents 20 [soon to be 24] leading UK universities which are committed to maintaining the very best research, an outstanding teaching and learning experience and unrivalled links with business and the public sector'.  They have published an influential guide to choosing post-16 courses called Informed Choices which includes advice about which 'A' levels are most preferred or required for particular degree courses as well as information about the 'facilitating subjects' they feel provide the greatest access to university study.
