I have gone through several rankings and I keep wondering that as per economies if the B schools provide a decent lifestyle post MBA then why don't German Schools come in the top 100 schools.What I am trying to convey is Germany has an export driven economy like Japan, so why do US schools along with UK,France and Spain dominate the B school rankings. Are German schools not worthy of being graded as per the variables which dictate these ranking procedures or is it some kind of Bias.
I am right now in the process on finalizing my safe bet colleges and some German programs such as Manheim look promising to me. However I would like to have some opinion around.
Thank you beforehand to all.

I went to an information event by ESMT Berlin. They came across as quite intriguing for general management with close ties to major players in Germany.

I think the majority of German programs has neither a very international alumni base nor really a very international appeal in the first place. I believe most of the nationally high ranked programs are indeed well respected with Germany's top employers, but for a German who wants to get a top B-School experience, I think it is expected to to go to an English speaking country.
Now, if you really wanted to go a notch deeper, I think the history of German higher education plays a role here. German MBA programs are all still fairly new. Many of them were either Diplom courses before or were in its entirety created from scratch. As such they have not really had the proper amount of time needed to prove to the world that they can educate top leaders. Look at German engineers on the other hand, it doesnt even matter that you did not get your degree from the RWTHA, you are a German engineer - you are synonymous for quality.
