My appologies
,
My best advise if you are really concerned about these trivial things is to ask around. As far as all-around schools, over time, the traditional ranking is prettymuch solid at Cornell, Colorado State, Penn, Florida, Davis, TAMU ... in that order more or less. However there may be minor variances from year to year. Remember, this is a political ranking, and once you start looking at specialties #28 overall may well be #1 at a particular niche. Also keep in mind that at all the schools except Penn you end up with exactly the same initials behind your name in the end -- DVM. Penn calls it a VMD, but it means the same thing
. JQ Public has no clue as to the difference even if you went to Podunk State College, they will still call you Dr.
