Everyone is thinking it but I will type it. You are an idiot. |
Huh? Harvard needs Obama more than Obama needs Harvard. Obamas will do fine, Harvard or not. Why is this idiotic? |
Harvard is a prestige whore. It has no shame. |
1. Harvard
2. Yale 3. Stanford 4. Columbia 5. Princeton 6. U. Pennsylvania 7. U. Chicago 8. Northwestern 9. Duke 10. Johns Hopkins |
+1. I like the exclusion of both MIT and Caltech because including them would be like comparing apples and oranges. Bout time Columbia is placed above Princeton. Only the HYP acronym, rooted in century-old racism and elitism, is keeping Princeton ahead of Columbia. |
. It has something to do with antisemitism. Columbia is one of few universities that didn’t keep Jewish students out. |
Yes, although MIT is much, much closer to being a more well-rounded university like the others listed here than Caltech is, both those schools are just a different animal, in my opinion. They are undoubtedly the top tier of their class (technical institutions), arguably in the whole world, but hard to compare to the rest. |
Disagree with Columbia being placed over Princeton. In your list, Columbia is solidly 5 or 6 in my view |
Please - many students at HYP and all the rest of the above list would be eaten alive at MIT. sorry. |

In STEM, yes, but other academic and professional disciplines exist as well. |
The football rankings come closest. But this is DCUM with silly white people sports too. Fencing, rowing, and sailing are 'sports' too. So I'd look at this: https://www.ncsasports.org/best-colleges/best-college-athletic-programs
1. Stanford 2. Princeton 3. Florida 4. Harvard 5. UCLA 6. UNC 7. Berkeley 8. Michigan 9. Yale 10. Georgia (GTech, FSU, UVa, Vandy, UW, Duke, UCSD, Texas, Wisconsin, and UCD round out the top 10) |
That's bc you are antisemitic. Columbia opposed discrimination against Jews when HYP WASPs were systematically excluding Jews. |
CalState and MIT are more stats oriented, more STEM-focused than Ivies. They are one-trick ponies. You pretty much have to be good in your chosen field. CalState and MIT wouldn't do as well under the holistic evaluation. They get eaten alive at Ivies. |
Yes. I mean someone has to play those super important lax and field hockey games. |
