[quote=Anonymous]These types of rankings only matter if you care about the things the lists measure with the same weight. Some schools, like CHEC, juice the rankings by requiring all students to take an AP exam (which is a key measure in the US News rankings) even though the majority of those kids don't pass a single AP test. At CHEC, 17% of students pass at least 1 AP test, and 31% are proficient in reading. At JR, it is 59% passing at least 1 AP, and 58% reading proficient. But somehow, CHEC is ranked higher. [/quote]
