[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you also talking about schools like Case Western, Tulane that are not technically in US News's t50 anymore?[/quote] USNWR is what educators, parents, students look to first for a general sense before true research takes place. Anyone can quibble with USNWR methodology, etc. ( funny how people complain when the methodology doesn't suit their preferred school), but any ranking in T75 covers any "slippage." [/quote] Well the USNWR methodology removed Class size from its process a few years ago. Which is shocking, as many of us (smartly) think that smaller class sizes does lead to better educational opportunities. Much easier to learn in a room with 30-40 students where you can actively ask questions than in a lecture hall with 200+. So yes, I will complain w[b]hen the most recent changes basically moved many smaller (under 8K) private schools down 5-10 spots[/b] and put large state schools in their place. Because I know the smaller private schools are actually still better schools. [/quote] You mean schools like Princeton, MIT, CalTech, Yale...schools under 8,000 students...that are still ranked in the Top 5, just like they were back in 2020?[/quote]
