[quote=Anonymous]They are just another tool and to be used as a guideline. And in my opinion there isn't much difference in the school ranked #6 and the school ranked #15. Once you get into the 35+ rankings, though, you really are talking about a different caliber of student and the test scores, etc. pretty much bear this out. Surely we are not saying that the student bodies of all schools are exactly the same. Can there be a student at UMBC who is every bit as capable as a student at Brown or Dartmouth - there was a student in my child's graduating class that got into all 3 schools but simply couldn't afford Brown or Dartmouth. And the PP who thinks employers aren't aware of the rankings I also think you're kidding yourselves. Otherwise they wouldn't know how to target on-campus recruiting.[/quote]
