排名評分標準

我們都會跟學生強調，一定要了解每個不同的排名的標準。不同的排名機構對大學的條件有主觀的認知，也都有不同的算法，學生跟家長應該要先理解排名評分的算法，如果您認同這個算法，這個排行表對您才有意義。

大學排行表到底準不準，為什麼不同排行表的順序都不同？哪個排名最可信？

每個排行表會用各自的因素跟比重去排名。作為一個理智的學生或家長，你在相信任何事之前都要先問why：為什麼這個排行表的第 1 名是哈佛，第 21 名是波士頓大學，為什麼 US News 的順序很不同？

雖然看排行表很刺激（？），但看排名之前，第一件事一定是要看它的排名方式。我們在文章的最前面先放的QS 的排名算分方式，對QS 來說，就業能力、多元化、學習經歷、跟研究大概都各佔四分之一的比重，但US News 對於“來自其他大學人員對該大學的聲望” (reputation from other institutions) 的比重就佔12.5%。不同的表有不同的公式，排名順序當然不同。

那哪個最有公信力？一件事可不可信是來自你自己覺得合不合理。雖然US News 最有名，但如果你認為大學評分比重最重要的事情是“學生滿意度”、“教授教學滿意度”、“校園生活快樂指數”、“畢業後薪水”、“就業率”、“升遷率”，那你就0% 不能相信US News，因為US News 的評分方式完全不納入以上這些項目！看完一個排名的評分方式，如果你80% 同意他的算法，那這個表的可信度就是80%，如果你認為他的評分方式（項目，比重）是完美的，那你就該100%相信他的排名。
