Business Week Top US B-schools 2008

BusinessWeek released its much awaited biannual, full-time MBA rankings. The rankings showed slight movement: Columbia went from #10 in 06 to #7 in 08. Wharton went from #2 to #4. Kelley climbed from #18 to #15.

Frankly, don’t pay too much attention to the absolute ranking or even slight movement. Take advantage of BW’s rich, informative database and fantastic resources for applicants. Then choose what’s important to you and do your own ranking.

7. IMD

BW bases its rankings on employer and student surveys as well as school research output or “intellectual captial.” This year for the first time, in a nod to the economic crisis, it is also including a ranking based on ROI  and years to recoup the MBA investment. Not surprisingly, European schools, which tend to be one-year programs, are at the top of the chart. More surprising: HBS ranks 50 out of 50 in this chart. I guess assumptions matter.
