Here are the top-rated faculties in some of the specialties included in the 2006 surveys. Schools are clustered based on their rouded mean score; the two numbers in parentheses that follow represent the faculty's median score and the mode. Within the group, faculties are listed alphabetically. I report below only those faculties in the top group ("Group 1" in each case, though the rounded mean for the top group varies with specialty).
