[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand the take away being that these schools are now worse than they were before (or better, depending on the school) rather than that rankings are deeply flawed and arbitrary. [/quote] The people I know who attended these sorts of schools are the people who care about rankings. [/quote] I went to Wash. U. and loved Wash. U. I think the different rating strategies are fine. Different people want different things. Great. The problem is with parents who somehow got the idea that Wash. U. was more prestigious than Berkeley because a magazine said so. Sorry, but no. Flatter, yes. More traditional looking, sure. Comfier, probably. But… more prestigious? No. [/quote]
