In knowing more about business schools and their strengths, do you know how useful is MBA Insider.

Is it worth 30 bucks?

I am using it and it is pretty much worth it. There are a lot of Stuff incl essays for different schools, Adcom interviews, School tours and all sorts of stuff.
I think for 29.99, it is very reasonable .......just think you spent 30 bucks at a
a very good italian restaurant

I'm using it buddy, after talking to few people who are using it and I'm finding it REALLY useful. It's worth!

I too have found it very useful. However, I have completed my subscription from last year and am thinking about subscribing again. The only thing that irritates me is that the rankings and much of the statistics are 2 years old.

I have heard a rumor that new rankings are due out on Thursday.

Correction, the new rankings are not due out tomorrow, they will be announced next Thursday 10/12 in an online chat at the BW website. Here's a link to the announcement.

I know what I'll be doing next Thursday. It'll be interesting to see how much they move.

I'm interested to see how their rankings differ from the US News Rankings and with my own perceptions. The one that really catches my attention is Haas. BW currently has them at 17 and has never ranked them higher than 13 (US News has Haas at 7 and I think they should be in the top 10). The other big discrepency is with Cornell, BW #7 and US News #16t.
Their ranking of the ultra-elites make for good conversation, but it really doesn't make any difference.
