Here's how we changed our ranking methodology, index definitions, and why we're not showing prior-year rankings

Methodology

To modernize our 2018 Bloomberg Businessweek Best B-Schools ranking, we started with a basic premise: The best judges of MBA programs are graduating students, recent alumni, and companies that recruit MBAs. We wanted to find out: Are schools offering what millennial students need? Are recent graduates able to leverage what they've learned and tap into their schools' networks? What do businesses value most in recruits?

To find out, we visited 15 business schools, met with representatives of MBA programs in our New York headquarters, and interviewed others from schools around the world. In total, we spoke with deans, professors, administrators, and analysts from 43 schools. Based on our conversations, we set out to create an interactive ranking that would help potential students make one of the most important personal and professional decisions of their lives.
