One thing that sets Niche's rankings apart is we consider the entire student experience, including what students do after high school, and the college search process — specifically college entrance exams — were greatly impacted during the last year, Niche says.

It is important to note that as a result of this change, they have updated their methodology to de-emphasize the importance of SAT and ACT scores.

“The weight for any factor that considers standardized test scores has been reduced by a third for the 2022 rankings as colleges still require test scores, but the future of standardized testing remains unclear,” according to the Niche.com

I don’t submit this to you as the absolute end all, be all … oracle, gold standard of school rating systems. But, it is one such measure.

Take it all with a grain of salt.
