&lt;p&gt;For the fourth year in a row, Agoraphilia, a public interest blog, has posted a comparison of &lt;em&gt;U.S. News &amp;amp; World Report&#39;s&lt;/em&gt; law school ranking and American Bar Association (ABA) scores.  Despite all the of this year&#39;s buzz about gaming the rankings (e.g., Brooklyn Law School) and survey mishaps (e.g., &lt;em&gt;U.S. News&lt;/em&gt; called Loyola Law School Los Angeles by its less-used university name, Loyola Marymount University, which caused the school to drop in the peer review ranking), the graph comparing the two scores supports the overall validity of &lt;em&gt;U.S. News&#39;&lt;/em&gt; methodology.  Moreover, as both the ABA and &lt;em&gt;U.S. News&lt;/em&gt; data are self-reported by the schools, their close alignment means that they supplied the same statistics to both organizations.  In other words, any gaming was kept to a minimum.  Good news for &lt;em&gt;U.S. News&lt;/em&gt;.  See below for the graph from Agoraphilia.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.vault.com/VCM/blogs/USNews%2710ModelAccuracy.gif&quot; alt=&quot;Agoraphilia U.S. News-ABA graph&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
