[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone else think it is weird that Hopkins is tied with Caltech?[/quote]

I think that it is weird that CalTech, a school of fewer than 1,000 undergraduates, is ranked among much larger institutions which have a more complicated mission. CalTech is a small specialty school akin to Julliard, the Curtis School of Music, and Webb Naval Architecture.

In my view, I would replace CalTech with the University of Chicago.[/quote]

Its mission isn't different from MIT, and I see them as similar apart from the size. CalTech has massive cred in the STEM world. [/quote]

Agree that CalTech is a great institution, but it is tiny and specialized. Take the top 1,000 students at Chicago, Penn, Northwestern, or Duke and you would probably have a more stellar group of individuals than the 987 undergraduates at CalTech.

CalTech is a stellar institution, but it should be ranked in a specialty category just as are Julliard and the Curtis Institute of Music.[/quote]
