[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP they only go to UVA, Northeastern, and Duke.  If they go to Ivy, according to this board, they are dumb. [/quote]

Duke is T10 already higher ranked than half of Ivy[/quote]

A lot of people do not agree but for some people that like Duke, sure.[/quote]

Different people have different opinions so I like talking about facts.  Duke is T10, higher ranked than many ivies by the de facto industry standard ranking that most people go to, USN&WR.

If you look at specific programs at Duke, their T10 ranking is laughable.  For example, they have so few graduate programs that their undergraduate majors really suffer from the lack of resources in these departments.  Some people will emphasize the focus on undergraduate teaching, but you cannot be a top program without the resources from top faculty, graduate students, postdocs, etc. that exist in top departments.  If you remove their medical and business schools, which do not offer undergraduate degrees, the situation looks much worse.  When you look at the facts, it is clear that USNWR is boosting Duke without merit.[/quote]
