* BusinessWeek ranks all the "runner up schools (highly ranked, but no tin the top 20) in alphabetical order.  Therefore, the position in which all the runner ups appear in the table above are not relative to scores. These "second tier" school currently occupy the number 30 to number 50 ranks in BusinessWeek's survey. While these schools may not be as well known as the top tier schools, they are nonetheless great schools to attend.

There will always be a debate over who is more accurate when it comes to ranking the top business schools. Both sources are certainly very reliable. Our view is that the ranking factors that matter most are those that pay off for students and graduates in job interviews and offers. Taking this into consideration, we will say that more recruiters would probably use the BusinessWeek system more than any other.
