Is Harvard really that good?
Huge brand recognition, powerful alumni network and massive funding. This attracts a lot of top international students and researchers.
That being said, you also have to look at where their specialties lie: unlike Chinese universities which tend to specialize in STEM, Harvard is best known for Business, Law, Economics and Medicine. It's very much America's elite incubator for the political class.
