<p>I myself could not possibly list the top ten schools, on any basis but hearsay. I went to visit some when my daughter was looking and some after she was accepted, but the only school I know in enough depth to talk about is the school she’s at. And I’d be surprised if many of us could make such a list in any educated way. I think it might be interesting to hear professors at different schools make a list like that, or actors agents…but honestly, we’re parents. Most of us aren’t even near the profession (or, I’d say, art) that our kids are studying. Why would our guess at the top ten schools carry any weight?</p>
