My opinion of BusinessWeek’s list of business schools

I read BusinessWeek’s website every few days and it seems like the headline that appears most often is about the top “b-schools” or business schools for those (like me) who aren’t hip to the lingo.

I think that not enough notoriety is given to schools that do well but aren’t exactly the “name” they’re looking for.

Also, the rankings are put out according to how students rank their school based on surveys. I will say that if BusinessWeek came up to me and asked about my school, I would have nothing but good things to say about it, even though I feel differently at times.

Academic quality only represents 30% of the survey also. So perhaps this list should just be left alone while other lists are compiled that actually count things like academics to count for a little bit more than 30%
