Yeah, there are more engineering grads, skewing the salaries. Hence why starting salary isn't enough to just declare Auburn better than selective research powerhouses like Florida and TAMU
And our average test scores come in a range: 28-32 for ACT and 1890-2090 for the SAT, which is highest in the SEC behind Vanderbilt.

Yeah, I think we are getting into different criteria for these rankings.
Earnings and earnings potential (AU shines due to engineering, along with A&M and Vandy)
Research programs - A&M and UF especially
Endowments - A&M head and shoulders over all. Vandy and UF.
Etc.
Lot of different ways to rank academics.

Personally I cared about getting a degree and getting it as cheap as possible from a decent school. LSU provided that. I could care less about what bullshite research the overpayed professors are doing. You will do fine going to any SEC school and studying hard and having goals.
