[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have wondered for fun, if you just counted by # of mentions in this forum what the t10 list would be! [/quote]

This is the kind of task that AI does well.  This is what Google AI Summary says. Of course it might actually be inaccurate if you did an actual manual count.

Prompt: "What are the 10 universities most frequently mentioned on the dcurbanmom.com website college forum?"

"The universities most frequently mentioned on the dcurbanmom.com college forum are predominantly highly-ranked, elite institutions, often the eight members of the Ivy League plus a few others, collectively referred to as "Ivy Plus" schools. The specific top 10 can vary slightly by user opinion and current trends, but generally center around the following:

Harvard University
Stanford University
Princeton University
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)
Yale University
Columbia University
University of Pennsylvania (Penn)
Duke University
University of Chicago
Dartmouth College

Other frequently discussed universities and liberal arts colleges (LACs) include Northwestern, Caltech, Brown, Cornell, Vanderbilt, Georgetown, and top LACs like Williams and Amherst. Discussions often revolve around the perceived prestige, acceptance rates, and application strategies for these highly selective institutions."[/quote]

Not a lot of state colleges on there.

I am surprised by the absence of UVA considering how much it is discussed on this site.[/quote]

PP who posted that.  AI can definitely be wrong.  We have no way to verify its conclusions other than hours of work.

Keep this in mind when you read the posts about how AI is killing entry-level jobs.

Some people like/need more confidence in what is being served up.

However, I think it's fair to say there's a lot of Ivy chit chat on here.  As well as lots of posts of lists and rankings.  That creates a lot of school name mentions without lots of school-specific qualitative info being given.  [/quote]
