<p>whatever, stern is better (stats/student body/profs/placement) than just about every school except the top 3 ivies or so and wharton. certainly better than duke and northwestern</p>
<p>I don't disagree with on that NYU's Business School is one of the best in the nation; this is an overall ranking, so NYU wouldn't be in the top 10.</p>
<p>I'm saying stern is better than ug's without bschools (not just compared to those with bschools), such as columbia northwestern and duke. and this is a fact.</p>
<p>I don't think duke should be so high up. And what is with UMich, come on. There may be some good programs in the larger schools but they don't focus on the individual as much and would be less likely to get as good of an education. NYU is not in the top 30 at all. Wash U should be top 15. I do agree that Northwestern is not top 10 more like in the 20's. But honestly the ranking is more personal than anything.</p>
<p>overall nyu is not top 10 but it is def top 25</p>
<p>"I'm no fan of Wake or Vanderbilt, but NYU's only real strengths are business and math (and law, but that's graduate only of course), while the other three are decent in many areas."</p>
<p>Huh? Did you ever hear of philosophy and econ (both top notch depts at NYU)? Ever hear of a school called Tisch? Stern is the 2nd best b-school in the nation after Wharton...and the finance depts. are roughly equal.</p>
<p>"Wash U should be top 15."</p>
<p>Thats way too much US News reading. Everyone knows Wash U does not belong in the top 10.</p>
<p>i didn't even know wash u was a college until my jr yr of college. i don't think too many people (outside of high school students) think much of it.</p>
<p>w t f marc....the majority in california know stanford is better than cal(though of course cal is an excellent school)...but seriously wat're you smoking and where can i get some</p>

1. MIT
2. Stanford
3. Harvard
4. Caltech
5. Princeton
6. Yale
7. Berkeley
8. Columbia
9. Duke
10.UPENN</p>

<p>People in Cali only see stanford as better than Berk when they have their heads on backwards. The only reason it might be higher regarded is because Stanford is toughet to get in to for in-state applicants. Which is fine. Stanford can go on being a factory for rich white people to send their children to, so that they may become more rich white people. The people of california are more proud of their university which forces its students to be tough, strong, and indivdually motivated, rather than the handheld prettiness that is a stanford education.
by the way, these ideas are not my own, I read them on Stanford's daily newspaper, an editorial by a student about why cal students are better, right before the big game.</p>
