<p>That’s too funny. I don’t need to answer a person who wants to change a ranking and has no power to… grover12, you can ask the world to not click those websites, it will change that ranking. LOL</p>

<p>“Yale is a school that caters to what I want to major in which is History/English and from then on I later want to go on to Law School.”</p>

<p>Then go to Yale, good for you. Since you are URM, you will be able to get in. There is no need to come to ramble on this thread.</p>

<p>"stop pulling up charts from 2005 "
It was from 2013 and methodology is used since 2005. Wow. you can read!</p>

<p>How about you look at the real rankings from 2013 instead of hiding behind a ranking from 10 years ago? Cornell is 15 (As usual no surprise there) Guess whats #1 and #3? Lol. Case Dismissed.</p>

43

<p>Why are you guys wasting your time responding to a high schooler who probably won’t even get into any of the aforementioned schools?</p>

<p>It’s like getting into a debate about Bentleys vs Mercedes with a homeless person. Hit report and ignore him.</p>

<p>Even when Cornell beats Stanford it can’t beat the class HYPM. Come on look at the real rankings. Oh and whats at #1, #3, #7 and #9? Surprised Cornell beat Stanford and Duke. That is quite an accomplishment for Cornell.</p>

<p>@Saugus</p>

<p>We’ll see :)</p>

46

<p>Until you actually get into one of these top schools, you really shouldn’t be talking.</p>

<p>Keep in mind that even the lowly Cornell rejects 60% of the Valedictorians who apply.</p>

<p>"Stop acting like I am an average CCer because I am not and I believe you will see that in years to come. "</p>

<p>Sure, let people know your name. That way we can watch in the news Keith Olbermann breaks!</p>

48

<p>^
Keith Olbermann is doing sports on ESPN 2 now.</p>

49

<p>Certainly know about the one grover12 posted. For domestic students who are not going to consider universities in United Kingdom, Cornell is on top 10. No surprise.</p>

50

<p>^Thats why HYP, Columbia, Penn, Dartmouth, Stanford, Duke, MIT, and Caltech outrank it?</p>

51

<p>Oh please, who passes up Oxbridge and HYP for Cornell, your ridiculous.</p>

52

<p>“your ridiculous” ??? </p>

<p>There is no point to discuss with someone like this… :slight_smile: But we can watch you on news!</p>

53

<p>^^
You’re*</p>

<p>And for the record, I know around a dozen people who picked Cornell over HYP.</p>

54

<p>Because my grammar decides if I get into Harvard. Get over yourself.</p>

55

<p>“And for the record, I know around a dozen people who picked Cornell over HYP.”</p>

<p>Thats cute.</p>

56

<p>College rankings don’t mean anything. What matters is that you do well and get a good job out of college. I don’t care if you got into Harvard, if you can’t convert that into a good career opportunity. State U grad with a good job >>>>>>> HYP grad that ends up working a crap job. (I know several HYP grads working crap sales jobs)</p>

57

<p>Usually the people who have drive to get into HYP have the drive to succeed in life, so please don’t go the oh not everyone who goes to Harvard is successful card which may hold true but for a lot of the time doesn’t. People who have drive to do well usually go to HYP, and thats definite.</p>

58

<p>

</p>

<p>Apparently, a lot of smart students from top colleges drop the ball in job hunting or just building their resume while in college. Or they majored in something random like film studies or history or something.</p>

<p>At any rate, there is a ton of recent HYP grads who graduated unemployed. My friend from HYP confirms this. Hell, there are bunch of people from HYP undergrad at my law school, who came to law school BECAUSE they couldn’t get a good paying job after college.</p>

<p>Going to a top college gives you an edge in job recruiting, but if you can’t take advantage of it, then that advantage doesn’t count for much.</p>

<p>Grover12,
From your profile I see that you are 15 years old.
Does that mean you are a freshman in high school?
If so, Saugus is correct, “until you get into one of these top schools, you shouldn’t even talk.”
For example, a youngster who plays hockey can say (or dream) that he’d rather play for the New York Rangers than say, the Florida Panthers… but the truth is he would have to become an outstanding player to make it into the NHL in the first place.
Getting into ANY Ivy League school is a major accomplishment. Each one is truly great in its own special way and for many different reasons. Why split hairs?
Work hard and get the stats and EC’s that will put you in the running for these elite colleges and then choose which school is your best fit from the ones that ultimately admit you.
Good luck!</p>

<p>Oh one more thing…
Getting back to the thread title and the question from the OP, USNR is starting to release top 10 lists for 2014 as a preview to whet the appetites of the public… well at least those who care about rankings.
The two top tens that they released thus far are “Best Value Schools” and Best Business Programs"
Cornell is the only Ivy that made BOTH lists… Just sayin’ :)</p>
