[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't remotely put Wake in the same caliber of schools like Vandy, Emory and WashU. [/quote]

Before the changes to U.S. News ranking last year to emphasize dei factors, Emory and Wake were both ranked in the 20-30 position for literally two decades. Agree that Vandy and Wash U have been a tier higher.

Emory and Wake were never peers. Emory has also been T20 for 2 decades. Doesn't matter Wakes new ranking makes more sense. [/quote]

Emory closer to Wake than Vanderbilt [/quote]
If trolling makes you feel better
Emory is ranked 24, Vandy 18, Wake 47. [/quote]

Well, we can go year by year for 25 years and for all but one, Wake will be in the top 30.  If success rates for first gen and pell grant students are relevant  to you, than last year’s rankings will matter, otherwise not so much.  I will say that  Emory should be commended for its long commitment to Questbridge which definitely helped iin the new rating critieria.  Wake hasn’t historically been strong in the area and it should improve.  Where Wake is particularly strong is small class sizes, even for introductory classes, and credentialed faculty teaching classes, criteria U.S. News no longer cares about, but I do.
