Replace UChicago with Caltech and this is reasonable
If the list were "Top 10 STEM schools" then absolutely! But without a law school or a medical school Caltech just don't belong on this generalist ranking.

Penn is way better than Columbia. Even USNW has Penn at 6 while Columbia is at 12.

Realistically there are about 12-15 schools that could realistically be considered "top 10" caliber, but let's be real. Brown is not a serious university.
Agreed, Brown does not have any top academic departments. Just seems like a school to hang out at.

To answer your subset question, top 5 are widely agreed upon (though not the order) but after that there is much disagreement. Top 5 are pretty broadly agreed to by HYPSM - Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Princeton, MIT.

Are you serious? No. People disagree about every list and subset.
