how come Jax has 3 in the top 150 (2 in the top 10) and Orlando has 1?

[GLS2010]

why does it matter? This thread has nothing to do with Jacksonville...

[fsu813]

Orlando is a larger market/city.....i'd think that Orlando, Miami, & Tampa would have equally or more prestigous schools than Jax.

[GLS2010]

Ok well how many jacksonville area schools made the list in all? Just because 3 are in the top 150, doesnt mean Jacksonville has more prestigious schools than orlando. Orlando has 18 of its area schools on the list, it would have even more if i counted brevard, osceola, lake and voulusia counties, which are also in the orlando area just a little further out.
