[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is US News on UChicago’s payroll? Essentially every other rankings has them doing way worse. Same with Hopkins.[/quote] Chicago is pretty well known to stay within "allowable lines" (not like Columbia) but do everything possible to game the USNWR system (since honestly, the USNWR ranking should probably be weighted as 80-90% of any combined ranking based on its compare significance). Chicago is also not nearly as transparent about some of their data, which does make a lot of people wonder. It has worked very well over 20 years and Chicago really is thought of as a very top school right now (it was always good reputation wise and has always had a few amazing departments, don't get me wrong). It seems like half the kids from DC's elite private schools are there now after so many have applied ED2 over the last 2 years![/quote]
