I would choose Strathclyde over Birmingham or London Business School. Strathclyde is very good for strategy and is good in the rankings.
Also, Strathclyde is in the list of HSMP, so that will help you get a 1 yr work visa for UK after the course. Strathclyde will also help you get 2 yr work visa for Scotland after the course.
Hope that helps!

According to the FT Global MBA rankings 2005 LBS is by far the best Business School of the ones you mentioned:
Rank in 2005 5
Rank in 2004 4
Rank in 2003 7
Salary today (USD) 126590
Weighted salary (USD) 129584
Employment at three months 85 %
Alumni recommend rank 6

What do mean by "Strathclyde is in the list of HSMP"?

Why would Birmingham be out? It is ranked No.1 by the Economist and No. 11 by the FT - two reputed UK based publications

2005 Economist rankings:

Hi, since you all were talking about Strathclyde, can I have some input regarding Strathclyde vs. Nottingham? My choice is a bit limited as I need to do off campus studies. Nottingham and Strathclyde are the two available in Malaysia. Appreciate some help here. Thanks!
