So according to The Times I'm currently at the least value-for-money college at Oxford (ignoring Harris Manchester because it only takes mature students). Yes, I'm really happy about it! But it appears that the "cost" column is massaged extremely, well, in a vigorous manner, as can be calculated from the column next to it, "cost condition". It appears that Pembroke's rent in the table is the highest possible, whilst other college's have their minimum possible rents. This does, indeed, make the whole exercise somewhat pointless. But then, this is only British journalism at its most normal!
