看了一下,mjnew 同學用一個大學畢業生的平均收入除以這個大學學生的平均 SAT 分數這樣的排名很有意思,也 potentially 很有用。這個ranking 可以用來回答的問題是哪個college更能maximize 娃的錢途 given 娃的potentials and talents(using SAT score as a proxy). 也看到不少討論區的問題是接受不了象 Santa Clara University 這樣的學校的高排名 - 這確實是非常實際的問題。如果想讓這個 tool 對紫檀的娃們更有用, 假設咱家娃的 SAT 分數是1500+,希望下麵這個 ranking 能夠從另一個角度給你選校時做個參考。
底下的表是過濾掉原來排名裏所有 SAT 低於1450 的大學以後的 ranking,不知道這樣用起來是不是更方便些?

你可能已經注意到,這樣一來所有的公立大學和軍校都被濾掉了(比如UCB 的平均 SAT 是 1415)。所以可以把以上的排名用來選target 和 reach schools。如果要選safety schools,或者要根據咱家娃的 SAT 分數 make a customized ranking,可以用不同的 SAT 分數來過濾。比如下麵是原排名中平均 SAT 分數低於 1450 的大學排名(可以用來選 safety schools):
