This is the stupidest thing ever. As other posters have said, who cares what some random, annoying college student thinks?

Exactly. Can't stand listening to her.

There are no SLACs. This list is incomplete. The reviewer probably never heard of Williams, Amherst, Oberlin, Vassar...
Williams and Amherst deserve a place on this list, but Oberlin and Vassar? Lol. Get out of town.
In an increasingly technical world large research universities are eclipsing small liberal arts colleges.

No one cares about the lower half of the Ivies. Don't kid yourself.
Lower half of the Ivies is still at a very high level no matter how you kid yourself.

I asked my DS and his two friends (soon to be seniors in HS) who were hanging out at our house what they though the top schools in the country were and this is what they said.
1) Probably Harvard
2) Princeton (we visited the campus when he visited my dad years ago)
3) Hopkins (we live in Baltimore)
I mentioned other schools in the top 20 and none of them registered with them. How many kids really care about this?

The poster is typically some doofus who didn’t get into an Ivy but got into a Top 30 school and wants to litigate the ratings such that their school gets ranked higher than in the current USNWR rankings. It really makes one wonder why they were admitted to any selective school.

Much better than USN&WR and what the rankings will be in 2-3 years.

Why did you cut the list at 24 when it went to 30? Could it be that UVA was 25? You’re that poster.
????
Why don't you just repost it with the full list, then?
Watch the video. Yes, UVA is 25.

If money were not an issue, any school listed below UC Berkeley is better than Berkeley with an exception of UCLA, Umich. If a T-24 private school calls with enough FA to make it the price of UC Berkeley, you go.
Most of the schools below Berkeley are NOT better than Cal. Your adoration of privates is noted, but quite a few of the top 24 in the above listing are indeed overrated.

The only reason this list has ANY integrity is because she started with USNWR’s top 30. The rest is her reshuffling the deck based on her narrow worldview, hearsay, and social impressions. I would have expected better from a Berkeley student. Maybe Berkeley should be 30.
