[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would you please list the 20 schools ?

Thank you in advance & thank you for posting.[/quote]

Top publics:
	Binghamton University	
	Georgia Institute of Technology
	University of Florida	Florida	
	University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign	
	University of Maryland-College Park	
	University of Michigan-Ann Arbor	
	University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill	
	University of Texas-Austin	Texas	
	University of Virginia	Virginia	
	University of Wisconsin-Madison

The SAT scores are impressive for those publics, and the cost compared to private schools are so much cheaper, even for oos.

Top Privates:
Boston College	
	Carnegie Mellon University	
	Emory University	
	Georgetown University	
	Johns Hopkins University	
	Northwestern University	
	Rice University	Texas	
	University of Notre Dame	
	University of Southern California	
	Vanderbilt University[/quote]

Both the public and privates on this list are great schools. Tough admits. Not sure if they are ivies, and I have a child at one of them, But solid education and the privates have large endowments with excellent resources for students. Can’t go wrong with any of them[/quote]
I think people have their preconceived notions of "best schools", and it's hard to change those beliefs.  But, IMO, what people are considering "top publics" is changing, and rightly so.  Some of these schools are very different than what they used to be 20/30 years ago.[/quote]
