jaywalker Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 This question came to me while I was looking at the most recent Math postings. I noticed that there were over 6,000 math-related posts, but I thought to myself: "There must be another subject with more results..." So I started a quest to find the most popular grad school field! Psychology was naturally my first guess, which easily beat Math with 8,618 results. Then I tried English, which surpassed Psych with 9,790 results. I thought this might be the final winner...but yet another field emerged on top. With 10,924 results, the most popular field I've found so far is...Computer Science! Can you find a more popular subject? Related question: Can you find which WORD gives the most results? I don't think any word can beat "University".

The following had over 4,000: Columbia 6183, Berkeley 5512, Stanford 5026, Harvard 4816, Yale 4064, Cornell 4021 Edited April 7, 2012 by im_blue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaywalker Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 I think the word "science" is the 2nd most popular...it has 27,084. Can you find the most popular city? My guess is New York with about 5,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
