John, it would be interesting to see a ranking based on “happiness” or some sort of “goals achieved” that has nothing to do with cash. I don’t know if there is such a study, is there? I wonder how different it would be from this.

I’d rather look at the data in a slightly different way. It tells me how many people I will be competing against when applying to a specific school. If I were to apply to Stanford, I will be competing with 11 applicants for a spot (according to your numbers above). But that’s the only thing [...]

Matt, that is an excellent analysis that displays a lot of information about the students that apply to Northwestern and their GMAT scores.

I walked out of the MBA fair way too confused. It was similar to the feeling you get when you are trying to pick a bottle of wine for the first time. There are hundreds of options on the shelves and they all seem so alike that you don’t know where to start. The good [...]

I agree without a doubt that the US is the world leader in management and business education when we measure it by the number of schools and their quality. But when measured by salary figures, you may get some bias in the data due to local market conditions. Supply and demand of jobs is very [...]
