Frequently Asked Questions: Grad Rankings

WHY SOME UNIVERSITIES ARE NOT LISTED ?

I could not find some of the universities in the list for engineering.. I am getting either NA or 'name not found' message. Does it mean that those universities are so low in profile that not mentioned in list??

Unscored

There are schools at the bottom of some lists which do not have a score. Why is that? can I expect that these schools are now on the radar and will be scored in the next year's go around?

Specialities within a discipline

It would be nice if you could add information regarding rankings withink specialities also in a given discipline, like in Electrical Engineering, you could compare which university is strong in Signal processing and which university is strong in computer architecture/computer engineering, which is strong in VLSI design etc..

Also, when u mention computer engineering as a separate disciple, do u mean it is the same as computer architecture. Shoudlnt if fall under EE itself???

Are you a liar or big liar?

I am having the same problem as he/she states : "I am unable to find a means of searching or comparing schools. There doesn't seem to be the same depth of information about grad schools as you have about undergraduate. Nothing about scores, tuition, etc. I have just purchased your premium online edition but find nothing new. The school profile gives only their website and search address. What did I pay for???"

Input measures for business schools

Some schools have begun to use the gre in place of gmat in admissions decisions (Harvard). How will this affect your methodology for capturing input data?

Ranking confusion

What's the meaning of 'N/A' in school rankings? Are they too bad that could not be judged or data was unsuffcient to rank??

Bar exam passing rate

If a 4th tier law school passing rate is the same or excel

a 3rd or even 1st tier law school. How could any one would

say a 4th tier law school is inferior. Would not you think such

4th tier law school should be upped its ranking.

Thanks
