#205 - Not too bad I guess.

The only problem I have with this ranking is the categories don't offer much to let students decide what is the best university for them. For example if I am going in to business, or law do I really care how many scientific articles have been published by a certain university, or that it has the best experts in the world when the student to professor ratio is poor. Just don't use this list alone to pick a university. For those choosing keep your options open, some of the smaller ones not listed may have more to offer you depending on what you are doing.

Actually Vaskez is correct, while the list has merit for the characteristics it rated them on, these characteristics do not offer students any information on choosing a good university for them. These few ratings are not the be all and end all of what should be considered a good university.
