There is no better between Oxford and Harvard. Both universities are popular with global identity. It depends on the students' choice when choosing between the two.

IIT and Harvard University, both are tough to enter when it comes to admission. Students studying in India believe that IIT is too tough as the admission is only based on the JEE Advanced scores, and ranks. The acceptance rate at IIT is too low (1-2%).  On the other hand, Harvard with acceptance rate between 3-4%, is tough but decide students based on the whole student profile.
