i still dont understand what people mean when they say i got into a top 10 school. the schools are ranked on different factors, including research, funds, primary care, hospital, and the schools are ranked differently in these categories.
so what is the default category that people are referring to when they say top 10?

The US News and World Report Research Rankings.

That's basically it.

Word.

If someone pulls a "top ten school" out and is referring to pc or other rankings without specifying that, they are just trying to talk themselves up.
 
very true, i mean, i can always say i got into a top 3





(using my top three choices as the ranking)
