Perceived Prstige by who? By the population at large? By academics, by the professional workforce in NYC, DC and SanFran? By kids?

Spot on, here in Huntsville, prestige means Alabama is #1. Nobody here has heard of HYPS….what kind of crap school is that….you wont see anyone from around here going to university called HYPS….

there are different flavors of prestiges. I would say that MIT has become #1 for smartness. Harvard is #1 for well rounded including social skills.

They should be the most prestigious ones because they're more about merit and less BS.

UChicago has declined to a third tier school.
Dartmouth? Really? princeton rejects hidden in the mountains?
MIT is a technical school, which has no business in prestige.

MIT is a trade school….learned it from Sheldon

Its about precieved prestige. Like mom proudly wears MIT sweatshirt and other parents say "wow"

Folks are starting to think about prestige relative to value proposition. So prestigue with value factored in:
UMD, Georgia Tech, UNC Chapel Hill

I’d add UVA as well.

This depiction of Harvard seems off.

They are the two schools whose alumni I would most likely assume can solve for X for complex problems.
