I know ranking programs is a personal thing, but I'm looking for some feedback. I'm considering ranking HSS over several mid-tierish University programs (like Kentucky or IU or MCW or Minnesota, for example). Excluding personal feelings on the programs, like how comfortable I'd be, the location, etcetera, does anyone think I'm doing myself a disservice just from an academic and job prospect perspective? I should point out that I don't dislike the HSS program, in fact there is a lot I like about it. My only reservation is that is it looked down upon, and only those who don't know any better think it's a good program.
Sure the allure of the Harvard name is strong, and while I know it's not MGH, people seem to do really well after graduating, or so I hear, and you have the private practice marketability to say you trained at Hahhvaard. I know some disagree as to the utility of that, but I find that somewhat hard to believe.
I guess I'm asking if a rank list that looks like:
1) HSS
2) Kentucky/IU/MCW/Minnesota, etc....
is crazy or understandable, from an outsider's perspective.
Thanks for your thoughts!
