What’s most surprising about the new US News ranking might be the lack of surprises – in other words, how similar the ranking is to last year’s. The top ten schools are the same, except Dartmouth has slipped into a tie for tenth, and the schools are in nearly the same order.
That’s in contrast to other rankings like those from Financial Times and the Economist, which saw major upheavals as top B-schools opted out of being ranked due to the pandemic.
