US News Graduate school rankings

[CaipirinhaQuinho]

Does anyone has access to the USNews:

America's Best Graduate Schools 2006

Biological Sciences (Ph.D.)
ranked in 2002

I think it would be interesting to look at?

[CaipirinhaQuinho]

got it, thanks for the PMs.

SDN is the best.

 

[MrMunkily]

Heh. We're not "pre-meds."

We're just plain nuts.

 

[Dr.Dr.]

Could we get a general posting on this? Thanks!

Grad school rankings? You have to be kidding me. Well, its really a lot easier then you might think to assess grad schools.

It's called pubmed. Pubmed the PI's working in your fields of interest and pubmed their students. The look at the support and facilities offered.

 

[mercaptovizadeh]

Does anyone have immunology info?

 

[Chouster]

Can you also post the genetics/genomics/bioinformatics rankings as well? Thanks in advance.

 

[mjs]

Can you also post the genetics/genomics/bioinformatics rankings as well? Thanks in advance.

In genomic and informatics, I'm going to guess they don't exist. Having a well-established program or center is enough to make you exceptional at this point.

 

[mrcdsbenz2000]

2006 immunology rankings anyone?
