<p>Ok so i was just wondering how you guys think the USNWR rankings coming in a couple of days will change your college choices? What will happen when - no if- UChicago goes from #8 to #5 (just throwing this out there because of the acceptance rate's sharp drop)</p>
<p>You’d have to be pretty shallow to let a tiny change in an arbitrary ranking affect your college choices.</p>
<p>I’m guessing you just haven’t been here long enough, but it’s a CC tradition to whine complain that the rankings are all garbage and worthless. So you’re probably just going to get negative responses.</p>
<p>Acceptance rate: 1.5% of the ranking.</p>
<p>Peer review: 25%, one number outside the control of the school</p>
<p>Isn’t Chicago’s acceptance rate drop too recent to affect the ranking?</p>
<p>^Yeah, that’s what I was thinking. The year x edition typically uses admissions data from year x-1.</p>
