Also Columbia should be one below with Chicago |

This. Jhu undergrad is a quality education full stop in arts, sciences, and applied stuff like engineering. Jhu gets dinged because the student body isn’t attractive for the most part and they really need to beef up their career services. Jhu needs to hire away penn’s career services staff |

JHU is very one-sided school. Just pre-med or bust |

No way. Not if the measure is strictly academics. It’s correctly placed on that list, drop penn actually to the duke northwestern tier. |

Jhu english dept is top notch. Same with history and Physics. Just to pick a few. There are very few schools academically as strong in as wide of subjects as jhu. Jhu suffers because location, student body isn’t f’able outside of maybe 10% of the class, and they should probably have a required course for all kids by some entertainment agents on how to sell yourself, small talk, polish etc. Like a two-semester series of “finishing school”. Bloomie should also write a check to get all jhu sports outside of football, D1. That would help as well. |

JHU English is very good, but not "top notch". If that's your metric, than schools like Duke, Northwestern, Penn, Chicago are significantly stronger and have greater breadth than JHU. |

Exactly - it is meaningless and flawed on so many levels … |

+1 They need transparent quantifiable data to support these static “peer ranked” hierarchies - for starters academic relevance could be measured in numbers of citations in different fields … |

| You guys are complaining about static rankings but what other schools deserve at least a 4.1 out of 5 for reputation?! You could make an argument for NYU because of Stern but that's about it. All of the other schools between 26- 50 are not on that level of elite. The fact that this doesn't change much makes it valid. |

Here ya go - JHU fans will be pleased to see how high it ranks in the second list that scientifically ranks academic performance … a few elite universities (Harvard and MIT) retain similar lofty status but the overall rank of US universities in terms of actual academic performance looks very different form US News peer rankings (Princeton disappears altogether from that list while others such as public ivies of U Mich, various UCs and U Washington jump to the close to the top, )- it has more credibility to my mind as it measures number of articles, citations, total documents, article impact total, citation impact total, and international cooperation. https://www.umultirank.org/university-rankings/top-performing-universities/2018/top-cited-publications/ US universities are most successful in terms of the high impact of their academic research: the majority of top ranked institutions (16, as in 2017) are from the US. Among the top 25 are nine institutions from Europe, seven out of them from the UK. One university with top cited publications is from Israel. While some Asian universties score high on academic output (number of publications) they are not among the institutions with the highest citation impact. The 25 top performers in top-cited publications are: • The Rockefeller University (United States) • Massachusetts Institute of Technology (United States) • London Business School (United Kingdom) • The Institute of Cancer Research (United Kingdom) • Harvard University (United States) • Stanford University (United States) • Princeton University (United States) • University of California, Berkeley (United States) • California Institute of Technology (United States) • Weizmann Institute of Science (Israel) • Rice University (United States) • MODUL University Vienna (Austria) • University of California, Santa Barbara (United States) • Yale University (United States) • University of Oxford (United Kingdom) • London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (United Kingdom) • University of California, San Francisco (United States) • University of Chicago (United States) • The London School of Economics and Political Science (United Kingdom) • St Mary's University, Twickenham (United Kingdom) • University of Cambridge (United Kingdom) • Norwegian School of Sport Sciences (Norway) • University of Massachusetts Medical School (United States) • Mount Sinai School of Medicine (United States) • Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (United States) University Ranking by Academic Performance https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_Ranking_by_Academic_Performance URAP uses 6 main indicator to measure the academic performance. These indicators are number of articles, citation, total documents, article impact total, citation impact total, and international collaboration. The raw bibliometric data underlying URAP's 6 main indicators have highly skewed distribution. To address this issue, the median of the indicators have been used. The Delphi system was conducted with a group of experts to assign weighting scores to the indicators.

See above. That is an absurd argument - not changing makes a peer list valid? Quite the opposite - Dynamic rankings that reflect excellent collaborative research that are cited by peers is what makes a ranking list of academic institutions valid. |

No your absurd, and make dumb arguments. Reputation takes decades of consistent work to build, not something that should be judged by how many research papers one produced in a year. |
