Looks like US News is teasing its 2017 b-school ranking, which come out next week. Here are the top 10, not ranked in order but listed alphabetically:

Columbia
Dartmouth - Tuck
Harvard
MIT - Sloan
Northwestern - Kellogg
Stanford
UC Berkeley - Haas
U Chicago - Booth
UPenn - Wharton
Yale SOM

So that means that Darden is out of the top 10 and Yale is in. How much shifting within the top 10 is anybody's guess, although I can't imagine that there will be a lot of big moves, given how little has changed in the past couple of years:

Last year's top 10 in order:

1. Stanford
2. Harvard
3. Wharton
4. Booth
5. Sloan
6. Kellogg
7. Haas
8. Columbia
9. Tuck
10. Darden

The previous ranking, also in order:

1. (tie) Harvard
1. (tie) Stanford
1. (tie) Wharton
4. Booth
5. Sloan
6. Kellogg
7. Haas
8. Columbia
9. Tuck
10. NYU - Stern

Interesting that Yale made it to the top-ten this year, when it's been on a steady downward slope in the FT's ranking, from a top-ten ranking in 2014 to #18 this year. I'm always surprised to see how two different rankings, ostensibly ranking similar things, can show vastly different changes.

Overall, though, I don't know how reliable the US News ranking is, given that the two top ranking metrics are something called a "quality assessment," which does not sound like it's entirely objective, and a peer review.

Change sells magazines.

Indeed, but judging from the top 10 there's not much change in this ranking! Maybe there's more movement further down the list.

Here's the updated ranking:

Stern dropped to #20 because they didn't provide enough GMAT info in time. The school eventually gave the info but US News refused to recalculate the ranking. They were ranked #11 last year...

Miami jumped nine spots to 68, not bad for a school that just made it into these rankings last year.

I expected CUNY to make some good gains, but that school actually lost ground to land at number 85...

Binghamton, too, was ranked in the 70s just a few years ago and now it's almost dropped out completely.
