countries ranked worldwide in Neurology (34). rank on the quality score within the stated pool. The score track runs 0 to 100; the rate track carries no average mark, because the average differs by field (about 6% in Dentistry, 21% in Economics).

How spread out this pool is

Every row above on one axis, one tick each. Right is a higher score. A field where the top few are far clear of everyone and one that runs down evenly look identical as a table.
