I'm not sure if you can consider Glasgow as a 'low rank university'. What do you consider lower, and in what way? As in, lower than say the top 40? These types of rankings tend to be either somewhat subjective or inaccurate. Many consider Cambridge to have out done Oxford long ago. Yet these rankings still put Oxford first. What you have to remember is that a ranking is just a ranking. The location and the course content is also what matters. Also, there is no real correlation between salary and the university you went to here in the UK. Someone who has a degree in Philosophy from Oxford will probably earn less than someone with a degree in Business from Aberdeen. It's the actual course that matters as well, as some graduates from different disciplines will ultimately make more money. However, that's not to say you shouldn't try and get into the better schools. It will look better on your CV. But just don't worry yourself too much. Hope this helps and good luck with your application!
