Interesting!

Nice to Ross do well in the top 10. Good for them!

Interesting that Yale has gone to spot seven. I also feel vindicated about USC being almost out of top 20. I have a feeling it will go back to mid 20s.

Hi Everyone, I've updated the first post with US News 2023 rankings. And here's a quick overview of major highlights...

Top Gainers and Losers

Schools that showed remarkable / miserable performance on the ranking ladder this year.

Schools Significantly Above or Below their Average Ranks

Staying consistently above or below your average performance indicates your inner strength or weakness and those from the finance world very well understand the significance of this metric. The schools listed below have been consistently performing better / worst for the last 5 years and it is an important metric to consider if these schools are on your application list.

1. Financial Times Global MBA ranking
INSEAD, in France/Singapore.
IESE Business School, in Spain.
HEC Paris, in France.
Bocconi University, in Italy.
IMD Business School, in Switzerland.
WHU - Otto Beisheim School of Management, in Germany.
HKUST Business School, in Hong Kong SAR.
CEIBS, in China.

Thank you

thanks for sharing~

We have updated the Top 50 list of schools with 2023 data

How come Stanford is so far down the list? I thought it was the best business school?

It is just one ranking…. Which people have been somewhat surprised with and not sure felt was relevant since schools perceived as leavers were no longer at the top of the list.

Good question!

Rankings - in an order to become objective (scoff!!) - standardized the metrics. You can see those metrics on their website.

Now, in order to fit the metric, business schools tend to focus on only those metrics and leave out all the subjective parameters such as character of Someone getting into program as one of the parameters.


Having been on the receiving end of that stick - from admissions standpoint to tolerating the mistakes of candidates business schools end up admitting (Objectively speaking), Schools these days are narrowing their focus further down on the metrics.


All the more reason why -

A. The top 10 schools can actually afford to do it.

B. They are predictable

C. We started a top 10 or nothing challenge at MBA Conquerors coz we know that they are predictable. Literally, ANYONE who fits their metrics can get in so long as they know what else to do. 🙂

I know it sounds arrogant, but truth always sounds harsh.

Could someone give me a ranking for MBA schools that specialize in healthcare?

Thanks in advance.

Probably a good idea is to look at a university with a balance of good med schools and good business schools.


Now, I know this will sounds a little crazy coz usually there tends to be a good amount of business professionals who end up with healthcare roles because of University's reputation in healthcare. It makes sense too. Johns Hopkins

Another way to do it is to look at healthcare hubs- TMC in Houston for example. So, rice seems like a good fit based on that.


Another better and currently objective way is to look at employment report of schools and see which has a stronger presence in healthcare. Do convert the percentage to numbers because you're looking at number of alumni in that area.


Adding to that your target companies, the school that has a good number of alumni in your target companies will be the better fit. Even if they are not particularly ranked by any us news or FT or Forbes rankings.

Great to see Tuck and Darden rewarded for their accomplishments.

Darden is one of the most affordable programs!

Unfortunately I do not see people dropping out of Wong to attend Darden 😉

I don't know what R's stand for? Can anyone help

Hi Rudrasingh844111

R is the term used for application Rounds at universities globally.

Are you planning to pursue your MBA abroad?

The MBA application process is intensive but rewarding. And like any other process, it needs a fair amount of dedicated time commitment. While there is no set time period to prepare your application, it is advisable to dedicate at least 8 to 10 weeks to your application. While planning is important, so is timing. Apply when you feel you have a good application, either in Round 1 or Round 2.

If you need further guidance on your MBA applications, feel free to get in touch with us.
