Cool UNSW is in top 100. Pretty big spread between Go8s.

 

[Verify]

Was UTS always ranked so low?

 

[asianese]

^ you wonder

 

[LoveHateSchool]

Pretty strong performance, it's funny because the top three places are the ones I've put highest on UAC/VTAC preferences (ALso have UNSW on there, who made top 100 this year, go them).

I would not treat Times University Rankings too seriously. Rankings favour heavily Anglophone institutions.

Are we to accept that the 3rd & 4th ranked Hongkong Universities are better than Tsinghua, Beida and even Taiwan National University. What rubbish.

Edit

I stand corrected.

At least Peking has a solid rank.

Lol i didnt know UNSW was lower than USYD or UQLD.

 

[asianese]

Melb and ACU have always been at the top of aus unis.

And yeah univeristy rankings are skewed so take them with a pinch of salt. Usyd ranks 50 in the reputation list hehe. Harvard has a 100% score in reputation while the next MIT is 87.2 haha

Caltech (California Institute of Technology) as No 1 would be about right.

Fairly sure it used to be higher and has slipped recently.

Oh well if there is any under-representation of any kind then clearly it's automatically wrong !!
