<p>I just learned this word, and I think that it is perfect for a group of schools. Let’s vote 8 schools in this league. The rules are </p>
<p>1.) add your 8 votes to the schools listed
2.) if you want to add a school, simply add it to the list.
3.) US schools only.
4.) The schools with top 8 most votes will be in.</p>
<p>Let me start with</p>
<p>Caltech -1
Chicago -1
Columbia -1
Harvard - 1
MIT - 1
Princeton -1
Stanford -1
Yale -1</p>
<p>Caltech - 2
Chicago - 2
Columbia - 2
Harvard - 2
MIT - 2
Princeton - 2
Stanford - 2
Yale - 2</p>
<p>In other words, I completely agree with your list.</p>
<p>Well seeing as the list consists of 8 of the top 9 USNWR schools (UPenn isn’t included), what’s the point of this? To show how obsessed we are with these stupid rankings?</p>
<p>Is this for overall school reputation? Undergrad only? Grad school only?</p>
<p>Here’s my 8 if we’re only talking about undergrad…</p>
<p>Caltech - 2
Chicago - 3
Columbia - 2
Harvard - 3
MIT - 3
Princeton - 3
Stanford - 3
Yale - 3
Dartmouth 1
Duke 1</p>
<p>I would have two superleagues (in no particular order within each league)</p>
<p>superleague A
Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, MIT, Caltech</p>
<p>superleague B
Columbia, Chicago, Duke, Dartmouth, Penn, Cornell, Brown, UC Berkeley, Williams, Amherst, Swarthmore, Pomona, Harvey Mudd</p>
<p>and here is the reasoning: If you are going to add Columbia and Chicago to superleague A then you really should add Duke, Dartmouth and Penn (yes lesdia and hawkette, I actually said something good about Duke). If you are going to add these three then you really should add Cornell and Brown. UC Berkeley belongs in a superleague someplace. Then there are the almighty LAC’s, WASP+H/M, which actually take students away from HYPSM.</p>
<p>Caltech - 2
Chicago - 3
Columbia - 3
Harvard - 4
MIT - 4
Princeton - 4
Stanford - 4
Yale - 4
Dartmouth- 1
Duke- 2</p>
<p>Voted for HYPSM, Caltech, Duke, Columbia</p>
<p>Isn’t this a bit arbitrary? I echo JohnAdams12’s sentiments…</p>
<p>Oops sorry I just realized I forgot to add one to Caltech, so here it is:</p>
<p>Caltech - 3
Chicago - 3
Columbia - 3
Harvard - 4
MIT - 4
Princeton - 4
Stanford - 4
Yale - 4
Dartmouth- 1
Duke- 2</p>
<p>Voted for HYPSM, Caltech, Duke, Columbia</p>
<p>Criteria: Total university</p>
<p>Caltech - 3
Chicago - 4
Columbia - 4
Harvard - 5
MIT - 5
Princeton - 5
Stanford - 5
Yale - 5
Dartmouth - 1
Duke - 2
Berkeley - 1</p>
<p>When does the voting end? :)</p>
<p>
It is good to know that I picked 8/9 fron USNWR, I don’t read it, but you do…
I believe the cross-admit info. And also, it is not a ranking but to form a “league”.</p>
<p>
It is too complicated. Let’s keep things simple. We have</p>
<p>H
HYP
HYPS
HYPSM
Superleague</p>
<p>
Overall.</p>
<p>So far, the Superleague is</p>
<p>Caltech
Chicago
Columbia
Harvard
MIT
Princeton
Stanford
Yale</p>
<p>P.S. I got the name from
