[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Top 20 for those interested without subscriptions: 1: Princeton 2: Babson 3: Stanford 4: Yale 5: Claremont McKenna 6: MIT 7: Harvard 8: Berkeley 9: Georgia Tech 10: Davidson 11: Bentley 12: UC Davis 13: Penn 14: Columbia 15: Lehigh 16: San Jose State 17: Notre Dame 18: UC Merced 19: Virginia Tech 20: Harvey Mudd I kind of like the list - very pre-professional focused and makes sense for the type who read WSJ. Methodology is 70% Student Outcomes, 20% Learning Environment, and 10% Diversity, with each of those broken up with different metrics. [/quote] So this is the Special Needs list. Which is very thoughtful of the Wall Street Journal. It's not often you see UC Merced on a top 20 list, along with San Jose State and someplace called Bentley. Babson is a hair salon place, right. Kudos to the WSJ for their public service project. [/quote] Enough traditionally high-ranking schools are also high in this ranking that the methodology has some merit. Instead of immediately discrediting the rankings without reviewing the methodology just because your school ranks lower than you had hoped and that others rank higher, it might make more sense to understand why your school ranks lower. Imagine, you might learn something that you obviously don’t already know. [/quote]
