[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Amherst booster is weird. They don’t graduate physics phds at a significant rate compared to the rest of WASP: [url]https://www.collegetransitions.com/dataverse/top-feeders-phd-programs[/url][/quote]How is reporting accurate information "boosting"?[/quote]
It’s not accurate though. Amherst is ranked quite poorly compared to its peers on graduate school placement for physics. Good try though.[/quote]The poster literally gave the students' exact placements, along with evidence of an Amherst alum winning a major award. What are you on about?[/quote]
No they didn’t? Why did you just lie about something that clearly isn’t there? [quote]Amherst College has produced an Apker recipient, and it is notable for having done so during the time when the Apker did not distinguish between colleges and universities. Only three other liberal arts colleges — Hamilton, Reed and Macalester — produced Apker recipients during this era.

The facts are that it is ranked in the near 50s for grad school placement among top LACs.[/quote]
