I’m confused too. Are people claiming they don’t think these schools belong in the Top 20? Or do they think people around here act like they’re top 10 schools? I don’t think either of those is true.

I think it's people expressing their bitterness about schools that their kids couldn't get into. The reality is most parents in the DC metro would love for their kids to attend one of these schools.
+1. I don't even know how you can know whether it's overrated or not unless you or your kid went there. It's just people grousing.
It's an opinion. People are allowed to have opinions.

So, basically, anything with a good reputation but not top 10 is overrated. Okay, gotcha.
UCLA, Berkeley and Michigan are not. They are underrated.

Harvard. No focus on teaching undergrads, who are mostly ignored by the important faculty celebrities who populate Cambridge.
Harvard grad students, on the other hand, can get plum jobs teaching ignored undergrads and doing cool research projects on behalf of the celebs.
