[quote=Anonymous]The outcomes based rankings are still just plain bad methodology wise. Here is a taste for the WSJ: Outcomes Graduation rate (11%) Value added to graduate salary (12%) Debt after graduation (7%) Academic reputation (10%) The valued added to graduate salary is especially scary based on how they describe it... "The THE data team uses statistical modelling to create an expected graduate salary for each college based on a wide range of factors, such as the demographic make-up of its student body and the characteristics of the institution. The ranking looks at how far the college either exceeds expectations in getting students higher average salaries than one would predict based on its students and its characteristics, or falls below what is expected."[/quote]
