<p>I did this ranking using Hawkette’s data a while ago. It adjusts SAT score for UG student population. The rationale being a larger school will have an SAT average closer to the national mean as it gets larger. This ranking shows which universities are overperforming and underperforming enrolling top students for their size compared to their peers.</p>
