[quote=Anonymous]It seems to me that the US News rankings does not always align itself with what most people would consider the top schools to be, based on general prestige. An example is that Berkeley and Emory are both tied at 21. I would bet that most of the population is a lot more familiar with Berkeley and that it carries a bigger wow factor among the general population than Emory. How much correlation do you think the rankings have with overall name recognition and prestige that the colleges carry with the overall population?[/quote]
