[quote=Anonymous]It correlates with prestige to some extent, i.e. in general the top 10 regulars are more prestigious than top top 10-30 schools. However within the top 10 there is no correlation with prestige. If there was HYPSM would be the top 5 every year, with Harvard/Stanford the top 2. Of course that would not sell magazines so they stir it up every year. Still that doesn't change the popular perception. People still think that HYPSM is much more prestigious than places like Penn, Columbia, Chicago etc. [/quote]
