<p>In follow-up to a similar comparison done for the USNWR Top 30, the following is meant for students considering the next echelon of schools. I have included five schools for each of these measurements as readers are likely not as familiar with these schools as with those in the Top 20. These comparisons might be useful for students looking to measure various schools as the mean is provided and you can compare schools to this number. </p>
