According to the QS Higher Education System Strength Rankings (HESSR) 2016, India was ranked at the 24th position out of 50 in a list of overall ranking of higher education. Indian institutions scores 69.00 out of 100. The top three positions were given to US, UK and Germany, with the score of a 100, 98.5 and 94, respectively.
The rankings in the list are an aggregate of the ranks given to countries in four categories; system strength, flagships, access and economic context. The system strength category calculates the score given to each country by dividing the number of institutions it has in 700 or above QS World Ranking with their average position in the list. India, for instance, was ranked 20th in the system strength category.
The flagship category is calculated based on the highest ranking institution in the country and India was ranked at the 26th position. Next is the access category, which calculates the number of top 500 universities in a given place divided by an indicator of the population size of that country. India was ranked at the 42nd position in this category.
The final category is economic context which analyses the investment in education by the country by comparing the financial health of the nation to its performance in the QS World Ranking. This category awards indexed scores to institutions in the country, based in their individual ranks which is factored against the GDP of that country. India did well in this category, as it was awarded the fourth place.
The US and UK ranked first in almost all the categories.
