<p>Ok, here are the Top 50 average international rankings, sorted by average and then standard deviation, with HEEACT rankings now included. The lists represents the average of six different international rankings from five countries on three continents. I also eliminated any outlier ranks by using the quartile method and double checked them with Grubb’s test for outliers. With the addition of HEEACT, and the elimination of outliers, this is likely a superior list to the original one posted above. Enjoy and have at it:</p>
