Does anyone here have some resources that post ranking and criteria unis are ranked on?

US news and world report doesn't give me all that much in terms of ranking of this and that..

Yeah but the vast majority of the top schools are here. I want to be able to go to the best school possible.

And even our ****ty schools are as good as French schools. Their college system is a joke. I would consider a French bachelors degree equivalent to a high school degree at a fairly good school in America.

And I'll be fair and show the whole story.

American lower education is a travesty compared to continental (and even British) lower education. No comparison. Our lower education is as poor as continental higher education.

Re: I can't find any decent colleges in smaller cities

It is uneducated to use bogus league tables (based on ridiculous methodologies) as evidence of quality.

There isn't one. League tables are a load of tosh favoured by the cretin, lazy and/or hopeful

OK I'll take your opinion for it and dismiss it without evidence.

Nice chatting.

Chat? You've merely made a few sheep noises.

It grieves me that so many folk are dumbstruck by league table folly.

Bye!
