H/S for all-roundedness. Yale and MIT for top-notch programs in either the arts or sciences, plus graduate schools.

Princeton does not have professional schools except Woodrow Wilson (PSIA). You also made it seem as if Columbia's law school, business school, and medical schools don't matter. Columbia also has top-notch journalism, architecture, and performing arts programs. [/quote]

I thought we had a consensus on this? https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/450/976040.page

+1, this is the most accurate. No need for everyone to keep arguing and nitpicking.[/quote]

+1, as of Sep.15, 2021, this is about as accurate as it stands. [/quote]

How can something 100% arbitrary, presented without data or analysis, without any context, and entirely functionally meaningless be accurate in any way?

It's opinion.  And you know what they say about opinions.[/quote]

People who are shocked by the rise of Columbia seem to be shocked bc Columbia is not part of HYPSM. It’s kind of like saying Brazil soccer is perennially ranked #1 in the FIFA ranking, so they can’t imagine the possibility of Colombia soccer winning the next World Cup. The World Cup winner is not based on an arbitrary ranking. You have to have a live, physical competition to determine the winner. It’s the same with the NFL championship, the NBA championship, or the MLB World Series Championship. No one’s ever settled this year’s championship based on how the teams ranked last year. Yet, people coming on here are “shocked” that a school that is not even part of the arbitrary HYPSM is at the top of the charts. [/quote]
