I enjoy it because my alma mater is near the top, but:

- Using information from Niche, and a crappy and poorly formatted 2015 article from Business Insider, is a trashy way to create a list like this. The question when you use sources that are THAT bad is whether you’re just posting regular clickbait or are part of a criminal enterprise. So, even if you’re a freelancer who put this together for $25 for clickbait purposes, the site managers should pay you another $25 to redo this with fresher, classier data.

- The fact that Cal Tech isn’t on the list and the fact that Harvey Mudd ranks below Vanderbilt are signs that, data problems aside, the ranking isn’t plausible.

I have a kid at a school pretty high on the list. Seems fairly rigorous to me. That said - seems like a dumb list. How on earth could this be measured in any meaningful way?

Stupid list. Of course this is going to depend on the major.

Bowdoin, Middlebury, Notre Dame, & Vanderbilt do NOT belong on this list.

College of William & Mary is questionable.

That Bowdoin is at high as it is and that Caltech, Swarthmore, Williams, and Wellesley aren't there at all says it all
