[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Compared to the VA schools:

UVA = UF?
FSU = VT?

Is that an ok comparison?[/quote]

that's what I was thinking, and that seems to somewhat correlate w/ the USNWR ranking as well.

UVA = #24
UF = #30

VT=#51
FSU=#54[/quote]

Another example of how U.S. News really shit the bed with its rankings.  Both Florida schools are significantly overrated.[/quote]

Based on what? The opinion of someone who went to college 30 years ago and is stuck in time? [/quote]

The fact that they are diploma mills that rely heavily on online classes and TAs teaching classes.  [/quote]

How would you know it is more the case there than elsewhere? Most colleges now have an available online component.[/quote]

It’s common knowledge and easily verified by a minimum of research.[/quote]

I'm not doubting your point. I'm just saying the same point could be made about many other schools.[/quote]

Not highly ranked schools, which is why the current U.S. News rankings are a joke.  Took away actual indices of quality and replaced them with dei factors.

But sure, you’d find the same at schools like University of Arizona or Arizona State.[/quote]

Right, that's what I meant. This is all large state schools. Idk about rankings being a joke. They simply consider cost as well. It's an important component.[/quote]
