Is this right.....?<BR/><BR/>My own opinion on the topic of ranking institutions is that what matters is the outcome.... I.E. HEI has probably one of the most outstanding records of placing people in international organizations...... <BR/><BR/>Many other universities, even cambridge/LSE/Harvard/Yale, probably dont have the kind of placement record into the UN or other international policy organizations that we do......<BR/><BR/>The other thing is that as with most things in life, your own success will always depend only on you, you and no one else. Look at Jim O'Neil.. .He is the Chief Economist at Goldman Sachs and he got a PhD from a very small unknown university in England....T-Viddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14405739523807985742noreply@blogger.com
