Sorry. I meant top 40. Follow instructions above for top 40. America’s top 40 — Casey Kasem-like.

That sounds right based on how parents and students decided.

But you don’t know for sure because your system doesn’t actually tell us.

Exactly. Ignore him.

Guys like him just don't want publics passing their mediocre privates.

Public’s are great if you want to get trained in a trade like CS, Accounting, or engineering. Large classes taught by TAs are not a great educational model if you want to learn to think and communicate, key skills higher up the food chain.

Those who know, know; the rest go to large public’s and think that they are getting an education but in reality are just being trained.

Rutgers is fine. As is UMD and Ohio State.

I am quite fond of LACs. I firmly believe that they are the best model for undergraduate education.

I like publics, but I recognize them for their original purpose which was making the citizens of their states employable for functions needed by the states economy.

The large publics are also some of the very best for grad schools where they can gather significant resources for partially trained students and researchers to use in advancing research and knowledge.

The best smaller research schools (which includes the Ivy's) fit a middle ground mixing the qualities of LACs and publics in some areas but not exceeding the best LACs or publics in their defined swim lanes.

At this level of being non-elite, don't bother.

This is such a bad take if you actually know anything about the top large publics. Or even ones a bit further down. For starters, “large classes taught by TAs” does not describe the overwhelming majority of classes a kid will take, or maybe any classes at all in many cases. Just ignorance cloaked in smug faux knowledge.
