I always wonder when somebody proclaim they have best universities, what does it actually mean? Eg. methodology in this article http://www.topuniversities.com/university-rankings-articles/world-university-rankings/qs-world-university-rankings-methodology http://www.topuniversities.com/university-rankings-articles/... Basically it is all about reputation that is very subjective and if you are not good, the name will not help you or research that is nice if you want to do PhD otherwise it is not very useful for you. I would recommend people in US to study abroad. You might learn a new language and you will receive equally good education and it will be much cheaper for you.
