[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is how Texas schools stand.

Rice
UT Austin
SMU, Baylor, TCU, Texas A&M, Trinity College
UTD, U of Houston
TXU, Texas Tech, UNT
others

Other than first two, rest offer merit scholarships so sometimes even top students who aren't eligible for need based aid, go to lower tiers for merit money.

That being said, SMU doesn't have a good return on investment unless you are getting aid, scholarship or have jobs lined up though contacts.

This list was obviously not compiled by a politician. If I may, I would like to make a couple of adjustments to your list:

U Texas at Austin  Texas A&M

U Texas Satellite campuses  Texas A&M satellite & affiliate campuses

U Houston, Baylor, TCU, Texas State, Texas Tech, UNT

(This space intentionally left blank)

SMU, Rice, Trinity University

But, if you know Texas, you know that the state is divided between the two schools--and those divisions run deep and last for life.[/quote]

I know Texas culture and Texas schools as well as anyone and no, A&M is not on the same 'level' as UT. The first list was correct in terms of academic reputation.

Not sure what you mean by the state being divided though. The state is huge and most don't care about either. And mostly UT doesn't care about A&M but A&M cares very much about UT. [/quote]
