BUSINESS SCHOOL RANKINGS.

All the gmat aspirants want to study in the best mba schools. They feel that the amount of investment that they put in for these courses will only make sense when they enroll themselves into the top ranking mba institutes. Many journals and magazines and even newspapers rank the b-Schools differently. However, the rankings change every year and it is also sometimes confusing as to which rankings to refer to. It is upto the candidate to decide whether the rankings are viable and suitable to him/her.

Many of these Mba B-school ratings are a result of surveys done on the passing out students and the alumni and also with the help of the information provided by the school themselves. In many cases, the institute heads are also asked to rate the other B-Schools on a scale of 1 to 10.

The first parameter used to measure the quality of a good B-School is the quality of education itself.

Second comes the implication of the course on the student’s professional and academic career.

The most usual points to access the quality of the course are

• Ratio of staff to the number of students.
• Academic qualification and prior experience of the faculty.
• Quality of the students, marked on the basis of their GMAT scores.
• Diversity of students.
• Facilities available to the students, like library, access to the internet, and additional help from the faculty in case of doubts and other problems.
• Amount of compensation assigned to the students after the completion of the course.
• The number and quality of the recruiters who visit the school.
