<p>It’s very important to remember that both the PrepReview rankings and the MatriculationStats rankings (which my 8th grade son and I prepared), tell only about the colleges and universities where the students matriculated. As I state on the website, there are many other relevant criteria when selecting a school. Matriculation statistics are certainly not irrelevant, and they are interesting and fun, but don’t let them overshadow other very important components of this important decision.</p>
