If you are thinking about going to graduate school, take a look at http://www.phds.org/ratings. The site allows you to create your own customized rankings of graduate schools by assigning importance weights to over 20 different criteria. For example, you can create a ranking system that combines educational effectiveness, low time to degree, and high percentage of students with funding. Or you can find programs that graduate a high percentage of female students, or programs whose faculty are frequently cited in the literature, and so on. The rankings are based on 1994 data from the National Research Council. The site also contains a library of useful information for prospective grad students at http://www.phds.org. The library contains guides to finding support for school and on surviving grad school once you get there. The site is run by students and faculty at Dartmouth College and is supported by a grant from the Sloan Foundation. Please pass this on to anyone you know who is considering graduate school Geoff Davis Mathematics Department Dartmouth College _________________________________________________
