<p>i think this was utterly pointless</p>

<p>it was just for fun...</p>

<p>sheesh~ stop taking everything so seriously!</p>

<p>Did you just make those up, or were they calculated somewhere?</p>

<p>USD definitely over Pacific.</p>

<p>I made these up, but most will agree with my list (except for the last one).</p>

<p>And no way Irvine is #4.....UW is definitely above them.</p>

<p>how did UOP get in there?</p>

<p>Yeah seriously....UOP is a decent school but definitely not Top 10 for West Cost privates. University of San Diego definitely should be in there at #5.</p>

<p>What about the Claremont Colleges like Pomona and Claremont McKenna? And Reed College in Oregon?</p>

<p>Heh. Another pointless list thread. How about you post the criteria and then make lists?</p>

<p>Actually most dont agree with your list. nice try. next time have some rationale?</p>

<p>ok besides the UW and UOP, which do you not agree with?</p>

<p>What I based my reason on:</p>

<p>Prestige
Faculty Quality
Recruiting
Starting Salary
Overall Academics</p>
