Much more accurate than USNWR. Columbia is #16 in the WSJ rather than highly inaccurate #2 in USNWR.
Relying on UK foreigners to rank US schools is like Americans ranking UK schools. This is on the same level as an American hick ranking oxford at #16 using some weird methodology.

This list is made by WSJ and Times of London. I don’t think the UK people know much about the US schools.l. It looks as if they didn’t bother googling to learn about the schools they are ranking.
Poster of the additional schools...don't quite understand the discrepancy between the Service academies and including 54. Florida, TEN publics higher than UVA.

U like that it combines LAC's. I just think some of you feel LACs are better than they actually are. It's not the 90's anymore. The national privates have passed them.

WSJ is a list i’d Not want to be on top. It factors in environment, whatever that is. The easier the program, the happier the students. I’d be ashamed to come out on top. It’s kind of like Saturday Night College Ranking.

Pre-med forums are full of third and fourth year undergrads at huge state schools wishing they were at an elite private and comparing how much more help their friends at prestige privates receive. But ignorance is bliss, of course. Rah-rah, go team go!

DP, but I do partially agree with the PP's sentiment (though I would never say it like that). Although the jealousy seems significantly less pronounced at UCLA and Michigan and much, much more at Berkeley and UVA.
