<p>I'm really surprised that Lehigh, Villanova, and Rutgers are ranked so low.</p>

<p>I'm Surprised CUNY Baruch is ranked at #41</p>

<p>thanks a lot^^^</p>

<p>these rankings kill me, you can tell they change them drastically every year so that people just buy their issue. for example, villanova was 12th last year, and now theyre 71, a school cant fall that much in one year...</p>

<p>I think Villanova was ranked #12 by businessweek, not usnews. Of course, that just proves the point about rankings even more.</p>

<p>Probably because Temple's BSchool is just as good.</p>

<p>Temple shouldn't even be mentioned alongside Lehigh and Villanova. I just don't get how its B-school can be ranked amongst Lehigh's and Villanova's. For starters, its so damn easy to get into Temple, and the quality of kids that go there is crappy, and I'm not even exaggerating. The kids that go here are those that get absolutely terrible grades in high school because either they're a) dumb or b) slackers that don't care about grades at all or c) both a and b. The same can be said for a lot of the schools on that list.</p>

<p>Considering I'll likely be there soon, I appreciate you dissing it beyond reason. Also, considering my father is an alum who is infinitely more successful than you or any of your classmates, friends, etc. will ever be, you have no right to make such an asinine statement. There are plenty of kids who chose Temple (including the honors program) over better schools. Also, what you said may be true in some respects (because Temple believes essentially everyone deserves a chance at education--which I disagree with), but it's not reflective of the business school in the slightest.</p>

<p>You'd be crazy to transfer there from BU. </p>

<p>There are exceptions to every school. There are dumb people that go to smart schools and you always wonder how they got in, just like there are always smart people that go to crappy schools because of financial or other reasons (proximity to home, etc). I was just making a general statement on the strength of the student body at that school, and many others on that ranking list (mostly schools that are below 25). I just hold the belief that you should just go to the most prestigious school as possible, coz quite frankly, a lot of these business school rankings are BS, especially if you consider schools ranked outside the top 10 by both US News and Businessweek. There's such a huge difference in those two rankings.</p>

<p>Well I'm a dumb person who goes to a smart school then</p>

<p>IU above Cornell ? So much for any use for this list</p>

<p>Minnesota and Ohio State over Georgetown? Yep that's right. That's how stupid these rankings are, especially for schools ranked outside the top 10.</p>
