The ArchSoc website is run by disgruntled ex-academic Garry Stevens. Unprofessional comments are littered across the site. It has no credibility as a ranking of architecture schools. His quantitative criteria to rank the "Best Architecture Schools" is to count up the number of publications by academics held in libraries such as the RIBA. This is an arbitrary measure that will tell a prospective student next to nothing about the quality of teaching and research in any particular school. The site is entirely unreliable as a guide and should be avoided.
Prospective students deciding which Architecture school to apply for should carefully investigate the research culture and teaching outcomes of any particular school they are interested in.
