[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]US News changed it’s rankings formula in a way that adversely affected these schools. [/quote] +1 USNWR no longer considers class sizes. Doesn't make sense at all. Because most educators would consider classes of 25-40 students a much better educational experience than 300+ (as they and parents should) Ditch the rankings and go by what you know matters. [/quote] Most schools do not have classes of 300+. And if they do, only a few. But do continue to exaggerate.[/quote] Look at the size of CS classes at UVA. https://louslist.org/page.php?Semester=1252&Type=Group&Group=CompSci Sure, only a couple above 300, but you don't get a lecture below 150 people until 4th year. You can't pretend that's the same experience as CS at smaller schools like W&M where you won't find a class above 45, even at the intro level. https://registration.wm.edu/?keyword=Csci&srcdb=202520 [/quote]
