[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m not reading all of this. I don’t think many understand how schools are ranked. It’s peer review. So no peer is going to be like UVA sucks. UVA is already top.

It’s research driven. What research came out of this university? Schools are constantly trying to figure out how to up the ranks. But what you don’t get is that it’s driven by the PHDs and research. That is what drives the rankings. And your undergraduate kid won’t even see it. Perhaps they’ll be lost in some mega class of 200 so you can brag, Larla went to xyz. Larla may actually get a better education from a lesser school.

[b]VA has lots of great school options. [/b][/quote]

True.  But “UVA is top” is an entirely subjective opinion on your part. [b]Many of us don’t agree.[/quote][/b]

I don’t know how you collated tge “many” but USNWR disagrees with you and “the many”[/quote]

[b]I certainly don't agree with USNWR.  [/quote][/b]

No one cares about your sole opinion[/quote]

:lol: 
Someone hit a nerve!  Lots of people disregard USNWR "rankings."  They're ultimately pretty silly.

but to argue that UVA is not the top university in VA is a pretty lone opinion...you'd be the outsider in 99% of the conversations in VA if that is your position. You know that i'm sure, because you are.[/quote]

I'd certainly argue other schools may be better depending on what you are looking for.[/quote]
