For the year ending June 30, 2010, European schools received more than 85,000 GMAT scores, an increase of 90 percent, or about 40,000 score reports from five years prior.

All this shows is that the programs are adapting to standardized testing, not any global academic gains.

It's a composite of the other top rankings (BusinessWeek, the Economist, Forbes, etc.,) so there's nothing really new or exciting here. I mean, look at the top five "non-US programs:"

LBS
INSEAD
IMD
IESE
IE

All western Europe, and all completely expected. They note that these results show that that European business schools are gaining ground globally, and use this fact as supporting evidence:
