How the score works

The score is out of 100 and compares Wabash College with every school we score in economics. It weighs what graduates earn four years out against the same major nationally (35%), research spending in the field (20%, NSF), how many undergraduate courses the department lists (20%), the student body's test scores (15%) and the size of the program (10%, capped so size alone can't win). 80+ is a standout program, 65+ strong, 45+ solid.
