NUS is WAY ahead of SMU. Oxbridge is definitely > SMU.

Only right in the Singapore Law context.

Prospects wise in both international and SG law firms (combined) Cam/Ox/LSE/UCL likely better than NUS. Same reasoning as above. No one is likely to care about your prowess in Singapore law alone in an international law firm.

Prospects wise in SG law firms (solo) - NUS = Oxbridge(?)/LSE/UCL/SMU

Prospects wise in international law firms (solo) - Oxbridge/LSE/UCL/NUS/SMU

NUS admissions say nothing about prospects. The admission rate means jack when candidate profile is the same (your straight As, HCI/RI person). So does QS rankings, since that involves international repute.
