[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Statistically it is wrong to to assign a numerical store to its school because the margin of error of its data sources is greater than the difference of the scores. They should rank schools in tiers: 1. Super elite tier: HYPMS 2. Elite tier (6 - 15): Columbia, Penn, Chicago, Duke, Brown, Dartmouth, Cornell, ... 3. Top tier (16 - 30): These schools are equals in terms of prestige and rankings -- UVA, Michigan, UCLA, Cal, CMU, Emory, Georgetown, NYU, USC, Georgia Tech ... 4. Wake Forest, W&M ... [/quote] Except, Tier Person, Wake Forest now outranks UVA.[/quote] At your "Top Tier" schools like Cal, UCLA, you can live on campus for about 1 year out of 4+ years. At Michigan, perhaps 1.3 out of 4+ years.. At Yale, Harvard, and Princeton, you will live on campus for all 4 years. These aren't even remotely the same type of schools. [/quote]
