Each strip is that field's whole ranked pool, with the notch where CollegeAmerica sits in it, in the colour of the band that rank falls in. The track under the rate is the rate itself: it carries no average mark, because the average differs by field (from about 6% in Dentistry to 21% in Economics).

Which fields of science does CollegeAmerica work in?

In all years, 57% of research at CollegeAmerica is in Physical Sciences, 37% in Social Sciences. Its largest fields are Computer Science (44%), Social Sciences (12%), Business, Management and Accounting (11%). It does 1.8× the world's share of Social Sciences.
