[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UVA was not our backup, but we did pick William and Mary over UVA.[/quote] smart decision, it's a private ivy-like education for a public school price.[/quote] The sad thing about William & Mary is its free fall in the rankings. It's not even a Top 50 school anymore.[/quote] This shows that you didn’t pay any attention to the methodology. I would refer you to one of the other threads that explains the drop. It’s not in free fall in terms of quality or reputation. [/quote] The methodology has always been flawed. Those that boosted the rankings in the past helped create the frenzy and now it’s too late even though in this case, the W&M ranking is inconvenient for your narrative. [/quote] +1 It’s funny how the same people who previously crowed about their kids’ college rankings are now disparaging those same rankings because their kid’s college has dropped. And they keep braying about how the “methodology” has changed, when 99% of parents and students don’t care and will continue to use the rankings to choose schools.[/quote]
