Blast from the Past:

How the World’s Top Business Schools Teach Their MBAs

So you think all business schools are the same? They teach the same content for the most part, right? They probably have the same clubs and trips too. Sure, you might develop a better network at a Harvard or Stanford, but you’ll find plenty of CEOs with MBAs from the University of Minnesota, Brigham Young, or Southern Methodist.

No, the biggest difference comes in how these schools teach. Like the case method? Well, Harvard and Darden are for you. Do you enjoy listening and taking notes? Then head to Los Angeles, USC and UCLA in particular. Do you learn best by doing? Try Kellogg or Fuqua. And if you want to get your hands dirty in the real world, there’s no better place than Vanderbilt Owen.

Two years ago, Poets&Quants compiled a chart for the top 35 business schools, to show the percentage of courses that rely on the case method, experiential learning, team projects, and lecture.
