    1. Stanford / 100 / 4.8 / 4.4 / 721

    3. Wharton / 95 / 4.8 / 4.2 / 712

    9. Columbia / 88 / 4.4 / 4.2 / 707

    10. NYU Stern / 84 / 4.2 / 3.9 / 700

UCLA is the biggest gainer, but Yale has gained some ground as well, interesting. Must be the new curriculum.

This seems more like a "cluster" than rankings. Having said that- not a whole lot of movers- except probably UCLA and Yale.

It might be legit since it is about time of the month for USNEWS rankings to come out.

I know the 2009 Law school rankings were leaked on another forum.

Score of 100 for the top 2? You kidding me? so there is NO room for improvement for HBS and Stanford?

Tuck and Haas tied...hahaha...oh well...

Michigan at 12...THAT sucks.

I'll confirm that these rankings are legit. I was at a bookstore earlier today and took a look at the magazine. It was particularly surprising to see what schools dropped out of the top 30 - Vandy, ND, and Purdue.

i think you will see yale continue to climb especially after they get the new building in two years...the 3.9 recruiter rating concerns me though.

UCLA made quite a LARGE jump. Anyone have an idea what the catalysts were that drove this spike?

Intra-cluster changes are pretty much meaningless.

How come Michigan has better peer assessment than Tuck and the same recruiter assessment, yet is below Tuck by 3 or 4 places. Seems like Avg GMAT played a huge rule in the rankings.

Same with UCLA, NYU and Michigan. UCLA and NYU have lower ratings than Michigan and in fact NYU has the same avg GMAT. This is weird. Anyone know what the methodology is?

ncp - Mich has one of the lowest avg Gpa's amongst all the top 20 schools as well which might have pulled down its rankings a little.
