The US News and World Report College Ranking is probably the most accurate.

I apologize I don't have a photographic memory that would allow me to prevent making mistakes while skimming through a list of 400+ schools.

I think posters on a message board crying about their rankings and where they should be is the most accurate.

So you're basing an entire university's academics off of message board? Sounds like you're the idiot.

US NEWs is largely based upon graduate schools----this list has nothing to do with graduate schools---if you want a source for graduate schools, USN would be a solid source, however, that is not the aim of forbes rankings----

I went and checked one star by all of UM's professors. They should drop down a spot.

It's pretty obvious that it's what you were implying. Quit being a pretentious douche.

It is for me and what I gather from your post... you're a douche. One poll list Rice in the top 25 and you stop lurking to talk shite. GTFO
