[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't trust Forbes if they don't post their calculated numbers for the individual schools. For all we know, it could be conjured up in thin air. It has a veneer of being reputable with HYPMS at the top, the Ivies all in the top 15, and a smattering of the most prestigious LACs (Pomona, Swarthmore, Williams, Amherst are usually considered the big 4 LAC, and all are ranked in the top 20). But rankings can't be based on just popular opinion. They have to be rooted on a methodology that can be reviewed by outsiders to ensure accuracy. With US News, you see a component breakdown of everything resulting in the rating as it is. It helps understand and compare the difference between schools. [/quote] So Forbes hates UChicago (and Northwestern) so much they dedicated resources to a college list so they could in the end screw the city of Chicago's top universities - is that what you're suggesting?[/quote]
