Message: [QUOTE="mrl2016, post: 2657393, member: 8512"] I stand corrected on the gaming of rankings, although I would maintain that UConn [I]definitely [/I]doesn't participate in a few of the practices mentioned in the article (asking accepted students to retake) and [I]hopefully [/I](keyword) doesn't participate in reporting fraudulent numbers... FWIW even with the very real gaming possibility people I know, both students I graduated with & kids currently applying to schools general give these rankings some stock. A few bad apples don't make the rankings meaningless imo, but I admit a lot of my evidence is anecdotal over small populations so maybe it's skewing my judgement. [/QUOTE]
