I know how much rankings are scoffed at on here, but I figured some people might like to know before they come out on thursday. Take these with a hint of suspicion, someone posted them on a forum, but I think they are accurate. I don't have any other rankings so don't ask me!

1Harvard

2Hopkins

3Penn

3WUSTL

5UCSF

6Duke

6Stanford

6UofWashington

6Yale

10Columbia
 
Looks like nothing really changed...except UCLA dropped and yale moved up.
 
top 10 doesn't speak much because we all know what they are. top 40 on the other hand....
 
I believe wustl and penn swapped?
 
Ok I also have a few other rankings, I just didn't want to post them and have people asking me what all the rankings are because I don't have all of them. I just know the top 10 and where my school is ranked because I asked for them from someone who picked up the magazine early. Here are the rest I know. I know no other school's rank!

35 boston u

35 dartmouth

35 oregon health and science u

35 minnesota

39 georgetown

39 USC
 
where can you get the said magazine?

anyone else have this?

11UCLAGeffen

11CornellWeill

11UCSD


interesting... lotta ties this year.
 
perhaps he has connections to US News company.
 
maybe the ties are to appease all the schools?


UCSD same rank as UCLA now!
 
cornell as 11th was way too suspicious for me to buy it.

Yeah that's too big of a jump. I'm interested to see where the numbers go--give me something to do as the school year winds down. 😀
 
Speaking of which, does someone have a list of the old rankings? It would be cool to have a spreadsheet with the rankings of each school going back to 2005 or something.
 
Hahaha!!!

was about to click but I saw you say hahaha, and I immediately knew it was going to be a rickroll. My suspicion was confirmed when upon mouseover, the link started with youtube.
 
oh you guys. gave up the goodies to quicky! if i ever chance at a sexual intercourse w/ any of you i'll be sure to not disclose my herpes 🙂
 
i dont mind being rickroll'd. i actually like the song.
 
dont mind rick roll but you prefer meatspin huh
 
whats meatspin
 
must be off their lemonparty album
 
you should look it to pitts pstp. its like the cclcm curriculum. not easy to get into but look into it. maybe you like. i didnt feel like posting this in your thread
 
For the record, I think when I was searching something I noticed someone else did the same thing last year posting the ranking early, and they ended up being completely wrong. So I wouldn't really put too much weight on this (no offense poster, like you said, you pulled it from another source as well). I mean, come on, a 4 way tie (watch on thursday there really is a 4 way tie and I'm going to be rather embarrassed). Wish there was a way to bet on this forum though hehehe, ok, anyone who can figure out who I am and find me, I'll buy you a drink if I'm wrong ;-) j/k
 
I think I'm gonna ask the obvious question: Who cares?
 
and you especially don't want to open the link, in class, with a med school faculty member sitting behind you...

"Well, if you don't see that stuff now, you will eventually!"
-faculty member, FTW

my friend changed a link in another buddy's powerpoint to this during a presentation he made to 200 trustees of the business school... 😱
 
just got rickroll'd...it's going to be a good day
 
No need for teasers. And now, the rankings.....2010

Ties are kinda lame. I mean, technically speaking, Columbia isn't 10th, it's really 7th, as far as the actual scores are concerned. It just makes an already not-all-that-helpful ranking system even more unhelpful.

I was thinking that too at first. But, then I considered the fact that there are technically "9 better" schools than Columbia so that makes it 10th. Meh, it's all boloney though. Who cares? P=MD regardless of school 😛

See, I understand that, but if I'm going to be looking at the rankings at all, it's going to be for stuff like residency director score or whatever, so if one school has 4.9 and the other one has 4.8, it doesn't really matter how many have 4.9- the 4.8 one is just a bit below them, and is therefore "second" in that rank. Blah. I see it both ways, but ties irritate anyway.
