[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"No, Georgetown, Emory, WashU are permanent T25s. Some crazy choices Forbes ranked above them include
CMC
UCSD
Bowdoin
UF
USC"

Partly agree. "Permanent T25s" when slacs are not included. Ucsd & uf totally agree, crazy. Bowdoin, cmc & usc, arguable but not totally crazy. [/quote]

You are clueless regarding UCSD and UF. USC, as well.[/quote]

UCSD is a bunch of UCLA rejects who can’t cope. Perfectly respectable school, but #3 & 2nd tier in their own testblind for entry overrated public school system. No way they should be above Georgetown, Emory & WashU.

UF much better than most would think nowadays. Regionally strong rep & network. Top UF kids are underrated and would be competitive at most any top school. Good # of hardworking bright kids w/hi-stats who just didn’t get into ivies or Duke/Vanderbilt/Emory or decided to stay home due to Bright Futures. But end of day being a public school & having to accept kids from all across the state, hard to put above Georgetown, Emory & WashU.

USC, same tier as Georgetown, Emory & WashU. Hard for older folks who remember the old USC to comprehend.

UF's SAT score profile is a 1320-1450. UF's 75th percentile is Emory, Georgetown, and Washu's 25th percentile. [/quote]

I have familiarity with the University of Florida, the University of Georgia, Emory, WashUStl, Georgetown, and UC-San Diego. The University of Florida is an excellent state school as are U Georgia & UC-San Diego, however U Florida is a bit overrated (and overcrowded).

Forbes makes a point to differentiate it's rankings from US News and to shock readers in order to garner attention.
