oxford is just a public school in a small country, no different from
Illinois or Georgia State U

Oxford is a place where you study about the past ,

past tense only .
There is no future in Oxford .

Oh, sorry I mean in Oxford you can NOT pay for your degree like in
Standford or Harward.

Last world university ranking from November 2005 TOP 10:
1 Harvard University, US
2 Massachusetts Institute of Technology, US
3 Cambridge University, UK
4 Oxford University, UK
5 Stanford University, US
6 University of California, Berkeley, US
7 Yale University, US
8 California Institute of Technology, US
9 Princeton University, US
10 Ecole Polytechnique, France

Sawwry, buddy, but your ranking appears to have been done by europeans
and reflect inaccurate european biases. Here is the true ranking
according to top US magazines and newspapers, including NY Times, based
on academic research:

Last world university ranking from November 2005 TOP 10:
1. Stanford University, US
2 Harvard University, US
3 Massachusetts Institute of Technology, US
4 University of California, Berkeley, US
7 Yale University, US
8 California Institute of Technology, US
9 Columbia University, US
10 University of California, Los Angelos

How come that if a ranking is made by europeans it has a bias and when
it's made by americans it doesn't have a bias? Btw. your ranking is a
ranking of TOP U.S. universities, not TOP world universities.

Btw.
I don't see what makes Stanford the best university in your ranking. I
had three teachers from Standford and they were good, but not top
class. Unlike the scholars for Harvard and MIT.

Cambride Univeristy is undoubtly a top clas by any standards. PaPaPeng
just posted a ranking where Cambridge university is number two.

In terms of reliablity go to google and spearch for world univeristy
ranking. Google is programed to list most quoted rankings first, and my
ranking is no. 1 in google. Of course it does not say everything, but
it just another indicator.

Don't be U.S. biased.

[Ira Humperdink MD]

your stupid ranking doesn't mean c*nt. when they call it a "world"
rank,
they have to stick some token none-American university in the ranking
just to
make it APPEAR like it contains some non-American universities. but
everybody knows that the non-American universities are included just as
tokens.

if cambrige is so great, how many nobel prizes did they win lately?
how many publications in the top research journals do they have
compared, say, to a to 10 US university?

british universities cannot compete against US universities because
they pay low. no researcher who can get higher paying job in US would
ever settle for cambridge.

If you want to study for the future ,
you better go to the USA,
and don' t go to the UK .
If you want to know about the past , and
stay in the past , the go to the UK ,
especially Oxford, then you will remain in the past .

the future of this world is in the USA ,
with Japan following the USA.
If you want to remain in the past , then
go to the Brits,

The future of Europe is in Germany and in France ,
with the Swiss following behind these two, so if you want
to look forward to the future in Europe ,
then for to study in Germany France or Switzerland .

If you want to stay in the Past ,
the go to the UK, the UK will always remain in the past ,
just like the Commonwealth meeting in Malta now,
everything that associates with the Brits, is always in the Past .

[Ira Humperdink MD]

i wish chinese can speak english as well as the indians. next to the
japanese, who are constantly silent and scraping, the chinese must be
the world's worst TAs at american schools. speake englisheeee!

[Komin]

Oxford is still living in the past ,the

whole of the UK is still living in the past .

That is why the US is taking the world .

American Universities are more open to the future world than the Brit
s.

With a degree from a Brit University , you will have problem finding
works .

And Ira Humperdick MD is concerned about recent Nobel prizes:

Harvard: 1998 - 2005 - 6 Nobel winners
Cambridge: 1998 - 2005 - 9 Nobel winners
Oxford: 1998 -2005 - 8 Nobel winners

You lose Humperdick.

*+-What exactly is an "executive" or "working" school.

Schools that basically try to have a full-time
curriculum for folks who are also working full-time.

[mrs. eliza humperdink]

yeah, oxford and cambridge won most of those nobel prizes 50-100 years
ago.
count how many they won in last 10 years and compare that to stanford
and harvard!
