[quote=Anonymous]Did you look at methodology? It isn't about academic outcomes for students, teacher student ratios, scores, etc. It's about the number of Nobel prices earned by alumni (massive outliers and favors science over other disciplines) and Nobel prices/Field medels for professors. Then published papers in top journals. This might be somewhat relevant if discussing graduate school programs. UVA is really a top grad program in Law, not scientific research so that really isn't surprising... Additionally, I don't see them scaling anything, so this will favor large universities, right?[/quote]
