The University of Pennsylvania’s Perelman School of Medicine said Tuesday it was dropping out of the annual rankings of best medical schools compiled by U.S. News & World Report, joining the med schools at Harvard, Stanford, and Columbia Universities.
Penn’s decision will take effect next year, as the school already has submitted its latest data for this year’s evaluation, Jameson wrote. While Penn has traditionally scored well in the rankings, the process fails to capture many of the qualities that make good doctors and researchers, he said.“We strive to identify and attract students with a wide array of characteristics that predict promise,” he wrote.
“We believe students deserve access to all the data and information necessary to make the right decision,” he said. “We know that comparing diverse academic institutions across a common data set is challenging, and that is why we have consistently stated that the rankings should be one component in a prospective student’s decision-making process.”
