[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Niche is not a legitimate ranking system. [/quote] +1. Niche's rankings are about 75% subjective self reports. And include things like your opinions on cafeteria food and the sports teams. They are a satisfaction ranking. Not a ranking of academic excellence. This is not a survey that relies heavily on AP scores, SATs, college readiness, etc. Given what Niche measures, TJ could be ranked 1st or 100th. Look at the Niche methodology. [/quote] If a school or school system touts its Niche rating, it's a guarantee that it can't point to a legitimate ranking. As other posters have noted, it's like a third-tier Yelp for schools.
