How the Score Works
Scores add up four published facts: batch size (40), fee disclosure (25), contact & address (20), programme breadth (15). They do not measure teaching quality or exam results, so confirm those with the institute.
- 1
Batch size
40 points
Smaller listed batches score higher; online or unlisted batch size gets a middle score.
- 2
Fee disclosure
25 points
Full marks when a fee range is published; low marks when fees are only available on enquiry.
- 3
Contact & address
20 points
Street address, phone, website and email are each worth part of this score.
- 4
Programme breadth
15 points
Number of exams covered, up to three.
Frequently asked questions
Why not score teaching quality?+−
Teaching quality and results cannot be checked from public listings, so we leave them out rather than guess. Ask each institute for dated, roll-number-backed results.
