In relative or absolute terms? These schools place in very different parts of the country if you want to be in TX, UT is number 1 then SMU, NYC is Villanova, Chicago is Illinois (I'd rank it lower than OSU), Tulane is for energy trading in Louisiana and TX. Duke is kind of on it's own, it is strong in NC and NY. Pepperdine is not up there.
