No we don't. That might be added to our to-do list. Thanks for a suggestion!

I believe wharton stands in the top when it comes to finance. About the brand value, any of the top 10 has a great brand value. However, Harvard, Stanford and Wharton has regarded as the top three in most cases.

For subject wise ranking...businessweeks website can be a good resource.......

Hi,

I have heard that in some schools they count your post-graduation years in ur work experience. Is it true?
For eg - if I have done my M.S before applying for MBA and I have work experience of 2 years then it will add up to 4 years in total.

Kindly comment..

-Thanks

I'm not sure your post here will get as much attention as you want. I don't know the answer. Please try to ask the same question in the B-School Application forum:

The data is from different sources including official websites, BW database, US news website, etc. I guess the latest US News reports were not available at the time of gathering the info for this table. I'll have to update the data.

I love the rating table. I always come back to it to for reference. I also used the list to find out which of the top 20 schools are coming to my state to host information sessions.

Hi,

I noticed the annual fees tuition in the list. I'm trying to calculate the actual budget for my MBA degree fees and wanted to know the average living expenses. Can someone help me in that? I have a not so great score of 670 (Q47, V35) and am looking at Carnegie Mellon, Cornell, Indiana, Purdue and Georgia Tech. I will also be applying to other Universities but I guess this list will give me a fair idea of what the other would be like.

Please help.

Thanks,
