<p>They still give you the rankings (on the left side). They just don't let you see all the details for colleges past Yale.</p>

<p>The new rankings should be out sometime after August 15th.</p>

<p>Ignore the rankings. They are completely worthless in choosing colleges to apply to or in predicting admission decisions. There are lots of other information sources to use to explore colleges. Then think for yourself.</p>

6

<p>The rankings do have their flaws, but they still show a good general idea. Don't think exclusively for yourself....consider the opinions of others.</p>

7

<p>The rankings are approximately ordered by selectivity. They are good to come up with names that you might not have thought of. Other than that, they have limited value.</p>

<p>well, going by rankings can be a problem sometimes--I mean if you really believe WUSTL is better than Cornell, JHU, Chicago, Brown, you need to have ur head rexamined.</p>

<p>Have you been there?</p>
