[QUOTE="Deleted member 2897, post: 624247"] [I]"Debate the merits of the US News methodology if you wish."[/I] Exactly. The first question people should ask is how we could be top 5 in every single engineering program yet be #29. The answer is some of the metrics are a little unusual (my terms). For example, we got basically a low F on "Social Mobility:" Basically, how many poor people do we admit and graduate. That's a tremendously difficult metric for an elite STEM school.
