Yeah, it's reputation in the U.S. is solid for medicine and law, both seem to be around 10 - 20. Undergrad is probably the same. Not at Ivy League or Stanford/MIT level but still respected. It has a few schools and programs that are near the top, like education and music, and some that, well, aren't anywhere near the top, like business.

I did undergrad there, now at a big state university for my PhD. What's funny is that the only school ranking list that doesn't have my grad school higher is US News. Every other one, this list included, has my grad school much higher, in fact. Fine by me -- that and my program and my PI's name will go farther in shaping my career, anyway.

There's probably not much discerning difference between say any block of 50. Number 1 and Number 50 will be fairly similar while Number 72 and Number 84 will be also fairly similar. However, Number 4 and Number 412 are for sure going to have a huge difference.

That choice of 50 was arbitrary as fuck, but you get the main idea. Either way, getting a free ride to 112 is a whole lot better than paying a couple hundred thousand to go to number 12.

281, but the ranking doesn't consider university structure in different countries. Anglo universities usually receive far better scores because they unite education and research, whereas elsewhere universities educate and research is done by research institutes.

>We measure institutional research quality using our Citations per Faculty metric. To calculate it, we the total number of citations received by all papers produced by an institution across a five-year period by the number of faculty members at that institution.

To account for the fact that different fields have very different publishing cultures – papers concerning the Life Sciences are responsible nearly half of all research citations as of 2015 – we normalize citations. This means that a citation received for a paper in Philosophy is measured differently to one received for a paper on Anatomy and Physiology, ensuring that, in evaluating an institution’s true research impact, both citations are given equal weight.

>It also provides both students and staff alike with a multinational environment, facilitating exchange of best practices and beliefs. In doing so, it provides students with international sympathies and global awareness

Let's not forget the completely arbitrary weighting of each category.

(((Reputation))) is the highest weighted metric at 40%. What is reputation? Well it's whatever these 70k cunts say it is.
>the expert opinions of over 70,000 individuals in the higher education space regarding teaching and research quality at the world’s universities.

What an absolute disgrace to education. I'd be ashamed to be at the top of this clusterfuck.The only thing it proves is how deep your pockets are.

>eecs trash dares respond to me
i actually really like eecs, and mostly the ee part. wish i at least had the opportunity to swap, but all the tards over here in L&S (read: cs majors) have made that an impossibility.
i don't want to fucking take your meme python cs61a trash. i just want all the ee classes. now.

Awesome. Well firstly, did you actually enjoy your time there? Haven't gone to the post offer day yet, but I've heard the city is lovely and has many things to do. Also, what kind of relationship are you able to build with lecturers/researchers? I know bath have a system (particularly in the AI department) to give undergrad students that are very interested in research the opportunity to contribute to some within their first two years. Is there anything like that at edin, or would I really have to seek it out myself? And if so, who would you recommend I beeline to?

Try aiming a little higher (obviously higher than Cornell, but that's not saying much). Here's a hint: daddy's money can't buy me into my school.

Are you stalking me :D? I have now the option between top 50 for 30k or top 150 for free. What’s your take?

I mean racist enough to bypass the “diversity quota”. Obviously avoiding such a thing isn’t racist per se, but in America I think you have to go pretty far to make sure everyone who works for you is intelligible.
