<p>This is ridiculous. Berkeley is not in the top 5 public colleges in America. Wellesley is above MIT. Why am I annoyed?</p>
<p>Wait a second. Berkeley is not in the top 50 colleges.</p>
<p>I hate these lists. It just adds extra unneeded pressure, and poor ways of helping students choose schools.</p>
<p>It’s obvious that we “hate” these lists, but I mean … some degree of decency is necessary. This list makes NO sense at all.</p>
<p>They obviously don’t know colleges as well as U.S. News. Centre and Wabash colleges at 12 and 13 respectively? Is this some kind of a sick joke?? I’ve never heard of those colleges, so they definitely can’t be THAT good.</p>
<p>I’m disgusted by this list…only five Ivy League schools are in the top 50! That’s blasphemy.</p>
<p>Um, what’s with all the army and navy schools in the top 5 public schools? That list is an absolute joke.</p>
<p>Go Princeton! :D</p>
<p>MIT is number 14 lol. </p>
<p>UMich is 161? WTH?</p>
<p>I think it’s stupid that this school called Wabash above the best engineering school in the world. </p>
<p>Umm. Stanford is number 23. HAHA.</p>
<p>Yeah, well I think it is REDONKULOUS. </p>
<p>Sorry.</p>
<p>Cornell College is ranked 50 places higher than Cornell University.</p>
<p>What are these rankings based on?</p>
<p>I have no clue what these things are based on. I’m so annoyed about Cal not being in the top 100. Sarah Lawrence College? Sorry. Redonkulous is a great word man … don’t sweat it.</p>
<p>This list…has given me inspiration.</p>
<p>Any list without Harvard and Stanford being in the top 5 = made of fail.</p>
<p>^ Harvard was in the top 5.</p>
<p>But UC Berkeley #73? Carnegie Mellon #266?
I am annoyed.</p>
<p>I said “and.” Lol l2read.</p>
<p>^ Oops, sorry. :)</p>
<p>Forbes is pretty good at ■■■■■■■■.</p>
<p>hahaha…that’s a funny list.</p>
<p>stanford is so much better than 19 of the 22 schools it got ranked below -_-
the only ones i can think of right now that aren’t completely worse are obviously princeton, colum and harvard.
and it could still be ranked above them :P</p>
<p>and carngie mellon’s a good place. so is berkeley. rawr</p>
