<p>Anybody have any idea when they come out??!!</p>
<p>my 2007 magazine says its to be released from stores as of June. Im guessing its because the new version comes out then.
im dying to see it :D</p>
<p>If you are already in a college, you shouldn't care at all.</p>
<p>well im not in college. im starting this fall. still interested in seeing wether the school i commited to keeps on increasing in the rankings.</p>
<p>Oh my ckufing god. Not to be mean, but... this has been posted many, many times recently. Please, just use the search function.</p>
<p>The 2008 US News rankings come out in August.</p>
<p>haha I know and trust me, I hate all the ranking-based kids more than anyone but I wanna make fun of those kids in my grades who worked their asses off and got into worse schools than me...</p>
<p>don't expect much change from '07</p>
<p>but rankings are a way to estimate the approximate caliber of the school right? if you qualify in terms of stats its good to narrow down your list of schools to about 7-10 from the top 20s, i think. ill be applying next year so im waiting to see what'll happen.</p>
<p>and iann, rankings do change quite a bit: chicago was 15th two years ago, now its 9th. i don't think it means that the quality of education has drastically improved. but im sure chicago must've benefitted in terms of number of applicants and yield.</p>
<p>who cares about rankings!</p>
<p>Yes, UC changed markedly over that period <rolls eyes="">, What they did was "clarify" some of the data they were sending to US News that helped improve their score. Gaming the system--you be the judge.</rolls></p>
