And you thought they spent all of their time ranking the colleges you just had to go to and then spent the next 4 years doing everything but studying and now remember nothing. But the folks at U.S. News and World Report also like to make cute little lists of other things - and this time its hospitals! This week the magazine named 7 New York City hospitals in several Top 10 lists in its red hot "America's Best Hospitals" issue. The Ivy League pedigreed behemoth love child of Columbia and Cornell, New York-Presbyterian Hospital, won the most accolades (shocking) as the 6th best medical center in the country. Other notable list-makers include Memorial Sloan-Kettering as #1 in the nation for cancer care and The Hospital for Special Surgery as #2 for orthopedics. The full list is available here.
