[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yawn. These rankings are bogus. They measure for "Ivyleagueness" and the Ivy League wins. Big surprise. Every year they play with the formulas so there is no consistency from year to year. [/quote] The Niche rankings are more comprehensive and less focused on "Ivyness". https://colleges.niche.com/rankings/best-overall/methodology/ [/quote] Please stop. I'm no fan of of USNews, but Niche ( aka College Prowler) includes criteria such as "hottest girls" in its methodology. Niche makes the USNews formula look downright scientific.[/quote] PP - is yor criticism directed to use of student satisfaction surveys as part of the ranking? If so, don't you think student satisfaction is important?[/quote]
