How schools look like in the eyes of employers?

or how your logic fails.

Think about it, those who have good things to say will say them and that will be registered. The more that people have to say, the better your rank is.

Elite Schools (there is really a T17)

I'm sorry, but the bolded quote makes you sound like Leiter.

Yeah and why is the gap at 4.0? I mean, if anything you'd put the ones rated a 4.3 or better higher since there's the gap between 4.3 and 4.1. T17 seems pretty arbitrary, at least there's a reason for the term T14 (they've always been the top 14 schools and in raw rankings there's a big gap between GULC and #15)

U mean between UCLA and Gtownn?

UVA better then NYU???

Actually, the largest break in raw scores is between Yale and Stanford (8 pts).  The next large break comes between NYU and Chicago (5 pts).  There is also one between Vandy/USC and GW (5 pts).  Should there be a T1, T5, and T18?  Probably not, since raw scores in US News don't mean much.
