[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LACs that made the list all scored 81 :

#44 USMA at West Point

#77 Middlebury College

#82 USNA-Annapolis

#89 Claremont McKenna College

#92 Amherst College

#93 Davidson College

#95 Mount Holyoke College

#97 Smith College

#99 Colgate University

Surprised that these schools did [b]not[/b] make the list:

Williams College, Wellesley College, Swarthmore, Pomona, Bowdoin, Wash & Lee, USAFA (often move into consulting positions) & Carleton College.

Given the small size of these schools and their lack of any professional schools (law, business, and medicine), these SLACs seem outstanding. [/quote]

Supposedly the rankings adjusted for  school size…and how do you explain Princeton ranking #7 which also doesn’t have any professional schools you refer.

Nice try though[/quote]

When you look at the “score,” these schools earn an 81, which ranks as high as 37, so these schools are not really in the 90s. Further, a score of 82 ranks as high as 20 and a score of 83 ranks as high as 13. Assuming that the scoring is linear, there’s not much difference between 81 and 82, or even 83. [/quote]
