It's a self-selecting and circular thing. Between two people with GPA that are the same and extracurricular same, might as well choose the guy with the better school.

There are of course cases of delisted uni or SG uni in MC or white shoe (in fact I would say quite a few), but it's harder to make the jump.

Ofc, if you good enough to jump to MC or white shoe without oxbridge, then it doesn't matter, but it's easier to go MC or white shoe with that stupid BCL/LLM than without.
Yup so just git gud and network. Study another year for what.
