1. Northwestern (Kellogg)Grads commend Kellogg's teamwork-oriented culture. Recruiters say the innovative curriculum produces the best marketing and general management grads.
2. Chicago
Ranks tops with recruiters for analytical skills and finance. Student raves across the board--from curriculum to career services -- keep Chicago near the top.
3. Pennsylvania (Wharton)
Revamped career services and increased global presence gains school nine spots in grad poll. The perennial powerhouse still ranks tops with recruiters in all areas.
4. Stanford
Grads maintain tech-savvy, entrepreneurial reputation with recruiters. Students deem their peers and the overall program top-notch.
5. Harvard
Students still appreciate the high-powered network of alums but downgrade an unresponsive administration. Recruiters still give high marks overall.
6. Michigan (Ross)
Gets the most-improved award from recruiters who applaud grads' general management and operations skills. Students rate it tops in leadership training.
7. Cornell (Johnson)
Sees a five-point jump in the corporate poll this year as recruiters take note of new curriculum. Grads compliment career services efforts and give high marks all around.
8. Columbia
Recruiters look to Columbia for finance whizzes with a global perspective. Students like the diverse community but complain about teaching quality and cramped facilities.
9. MIT (Sloan)
Recruiters knocked MIT down three spots to No.9, but grads' support of the cutting-edge curriculum and faculty is unflinching, and faculty research is top-rate.
10. Dartmouth (Tuck)
Grads enjoy close relationships with faculty and a close-knit campus community. Steadfast recruiters rely on Tuck's top-notch general management program.

I'm surprised that Kellogg is on top this year. I was expecting Pennsylvania to be the top one, but they are good with real estate, which makes up for it.

Where is NYU

Don't worry, there are enough differnt rankings that they'll be #1 in atleast 1 of them for their marketing and prestage.

All East Coast...*and Mid-West.

#4 Stanford is West Coast.

Kellogg was on top for the fith year now. They are ranked over their averages in how they were ranked in finance, martketing, managment, etc.

^^ I mean, differnt publications ranking

Is Bentley College on there??

All from the U.S? Is that list worldwide?

Yeah, just US. Rapid forgot/didn't think to put it in the title.

If you wanna make a list of US schools please put in the TITLE!!!!!!

But i think top 10 business in the world would all be American, except maybe INSEAD.

Erm... 3 years late with that response?

three years later the top 10 schools are still American.

Having both 1 and 2 is pretty amazing for the Chicago area.

Bentley College is a joke.:nuts:

NYC is the US business center, beside Havard and MIT (Due to their comprehensive reputation), it is somewhat surprise to see the top 2 are in Chicago.

The campus of Columbia U and NYU are located in the city of New York, I see the vibrancy and diversity is un-matchable to the rest. The list is a balance for a certain degree. Everyone whose been to NYU area would think that it's like a mini global melting pot.

How did you manage to do that!

Would it be correct to assume that under-grad rankings would look much the same?

And there are some very good B-schools in Europe as well. ESADE, INSEAD, Ecole, London Business school etc.

How come NYU (Leonard N. Stern) is not on the list?! How's the 2007 top looking?
