You should check out the full profile of the school in the rankings - this way you can better asses which one fits best. the economist is a good place to start. you can get there a detail ranking regarding placement, alumni ect. you should also try and contact alumni yourself(although you should always take into account that alumni are very loyal, and therefor biased)

Congrats on the brilliant performance!
Rankings are good but a person should never ever trust them blindly...unfortunately majority does...rankings are generated from surveys...surveys in turn are done by doing sampling technique (you will learn about this in your MBA if you don't know it already)...there are multiple sampling techniques available...hence in FT if School A is placed higher than B, in EIU ranking, B might be higher than A because they have taken different variation of the samples. The whole back-ground of rankings is shaky and is not that credible.
Talk with alumni to find out which school suits your needs...If I were you I would have chosen Lancaster since the cost is reasonable, better in research and well know not just as a B School but also as an Uni than Strathclyde.
But then its ur call...ATB.
