You get points for using NU (people it is NU and has always been NU. It is in the sports chants from the beginning of their sports!) but are deducted points for Hopkins because they don't get BiG10 status.

NU
UCLA
UW (Washington)/Michigan
USC (deduct points for campus)
All the others
Oregon
Rutgers (negative points)

And massive win for their marketing with the most iconic ad ever. To GoT theme: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Urf7niNI2mQ



Michigan is WAY stronger than Washington.

For one, you’re talking about 46 vs 21 for undergrad.


I get it but there is a deduction for Ann Arbor. Frankly UMD should be down with Rutgers for location but I am being kind.


Ann Arbor is a great city. I take it you’ve never been there.

Do you even fact check anything?

UW OOS: 51%

Michigan: 15%

I guess it’s similar if you literally reverse the digits …

What I don’t understand is why so many top faculty settle in Wisconsin. Like, if there’s any evidence academia is a nutshow, look at all the good faculty in Madison WI. Literally tornado alley, no major cities in the state, no big law or finance.
The question is why aren’t these faculty in Charlottesville? UVA really needs to get its research/grad rankings up.

Your UW stay is WAY off. And that’s the last I’ll say about it because I suspect you’re our resident troll.

+1

Social work = Michigan
CS = UMD
And so on.

Oh no. You just googled and didn't look at the actual data set. SEC grad? I kid, kind of.

That’s the last you’ll say because you can’t link to actual data? 😂

Here’s the latest data:

Washington OOS: 46%

Michigan OOS: 18%

Not wrong, but the whole list is so close together that you should be willing to go up or down 2-4 tiers depending on particular programs, geography, and where you get tuition discounts (resident, reciprocity, and/or merit).

Still waiting for someone to list the programs that are stronger at Michigan State than Michigan.

Google is your friend:

And remember the point isn’t that MSU is overall stronger than UMich. The point is that no one gets a degree in “overall.”

That doesn’t compare any of those rankings to Michigan.
