any opinions about the new 2006 financila times rankings? big jumps for manchester, michigan state, esade and illinois (urbana). significant drops for cornell & north western.

happy to look at more programs outside US and Europe that are on the rankings now. China, Mexico, Canda for example.

It is also striking to see how different the FT rankings are from the Economist's overall b-school rankings from 2005. I personally like the variation, though I am no huge fan of rankings in general.

Hello friends... must I be alarmed that no indian programmes for mbas are on these financial times rankings? I want to study in my home country. pls reply if you can guide me. thx.

Michigan State's MBA was ranked #3 in placement services this year, and BusinessWeek ranked it #1 in return on investment.
