[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All I know is, ranking is part of the fit, because even if a school checks all the other boxes on paper but people think poorly of it or it’s ranked very low, it would change house you feel about the school, which is actually what fit is. Feel. [/quote] OP, please disregard the above interpretation of fit. The "feel" this PP is talking about is not what students are experiencing on campus. They aren't concerned about whether "people think poorly of it" or whatever. That is not at all what actual "fit" is. The PP above has fallen for the obsession, so prevalent on this board, with rankings and ratings by magazines. Student fit is about day to day life on campus and the academic fit for the individual student. Not whether some friend of mom or dad's turns up their nose when mom and dad say, "DC is at X College."
