2007 Us News Rankings!

<p>NYU is now ranked #34 (from 37) in the nation, and the business program overall is still #5. Apparently someone picked up the magazine and is posting the ranks on this thread. <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=227117%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=227117&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Wow...I didn't know UT Austin was ranked in the top 50. That's pretty interesting.</p>

<p>Yes, because US News rankings are the be-all and end-all of colleges. :)</p>

<p>Sure, it's cool, but it's like knowing the CAS building used to be the infamous Triangle Shirtwaist Factory. Ultimately a useless fact, unless you are hardcore about labor unions.</p>

<p>US News and World Report is OK at ranking schools, but I prefer using this:</p>

<p>This ranking method is what The Economist Magazine and Forbes cite from.</p>

<p>By the way, how does NYU rank in Politics, Sagar?</p>

<p>Wow, according to Academic Rankings of World Universities 2006, New York University is the 29th in the world, and the 21st in the United States.
This is great.</p>

<p>no idea Outono Noite. I looked online, but they still arent selling the rankings. I think that one dude got lucky when he picked up that copy at Barnes and Nobles. Try posting in the other thread for the answer.</p>

<p>Eh, rankings are irrelevant. They're not really a good indication of the quality of education that a student can receive.</p>
