It’s that time of the year again when Poets&Quants crunches the most influential MBA rankings of the year to come up with its own list of the very best full-time U.S. MBA programs. The full ranking of the top 100 MBAs in the U.S. will be published on Monday, Nov. 25th.

Unlike other rankings, the tenth annual Poets&Quants list combines the latest five most influential business school rankings in the world: U.S. News & World Report, Forbes, Bloomberg Businessweek, the Financial Times, and The Economist. Instead of merely averaging the five, each ranking is separately weighted to account for our view of their credibility. (U.S. News is given a weight of 35%, Forbes, 25%, while both the Financial Times and Businessweek is given a 15% weight, and The Economist, 10%.

Here’s a sneak peek at the top ten business schools for 2019-2020, alphabetically. The one big surprise: Yale School of Management has snuck its way into the top ten, edging up one spot from 11th place last year to replace the University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business.
