<p>Hey everyone- I'm just wondering if anyone's heard any rumors about the 2007 USNEWS rankings, since about this time last year some rumors came out about the 2006 rankings that turned out to be right.</p>

<p>i have...the entire list will be exactly the same. they're going for shock value this year.</p>

3

<p>Keeping it the same would be a shock.</p>

<p>They are adopting my ORC ratings:

<p>I wish they would- I (almost) agree with them completely.</p>

6

<p>I don't (personally). I believe that peer assessment is actually one of the more accurate criteria.</p>

7

<p>I heard from my super secret rumor source San Diego State and Washington University in St. Louis will be tied for #1.</p>

8

<p>One of HYPSM will be # 1</p>

<p>I heard one of the schools will be moving up a spot and another school will be -- get this! -- moving down a spot!</p>

<p>I see your bet and I raise you one more spot up and down. For a total of <em>gasp</em> two!</p>

<p>Hey now -- don't get carried away and lose your shirt. I do have a feeling though that there is this school with "University" in its name and it will be somewhere in the top 15.</p>

12

<p>well you better memorize it, because your life will be drastically different if you go to the 18th ranked school instead of the 8th ranked school.</p>

13

<p>when do the actual usnews rankings come out?</p>

14

<p>The USNews Rankings will come out after college applications are done...so omg...if the #1 school has changed, you won't be able to apply to it!</p>

<p>OH NOES!!!</p>

15

<p>down with Peer Assessment!</p>

16

<p>I have heard that the 2007 edition will have more of a focus on research expenditures.</p>

17

<p>The rankings come out two weeks from tomorrow, on Friday, August 18.</p>

<p>lol (10 char)</p>

<p>I can't believe that no one on CC has any info to share. Maybe *******.com will leak it out this year instead of CC.</p>

<p>Why do people put any stock into this list? IT DOES NOT MATTER WHERE THE HELL YOU GO AS LONG AS YOUR HAPPY! If you go to the #3 school instead of the #1 school you will not die. I know it's hard to believe but take my word for it people.</p>
