"On any list of the top 50 universities on earth, the US will routinely take the top 40 or 45 slots."
Do you by any chance have a handy link to such a list, that was not compiled by Americans?
- eru 11y agoYou should be able to get one that was made by the Brits, easily.
- dalke 11y agoYep. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QS_World_University_Rankings#Results https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QS_World_University_Rankings#R... In the top 50, 18 are US schools, 10 are in the UK, 11 are from other former British colonies (Hong Kong, Canada, Singapore, Australia).

- dalke 11y agoFWIW, 33/50 are in the US. The breakdown is 16/20, 33/50, 51/100, 78/200, 102/300. The US and UK systems are roughly of equal rankings, assuming I can simply scale by national population. (That is, if they are the same, then I would expect the US to have more occurrences in the highest levels simply due to statistics.)
