Table notesAlthough the headline ranking figures show changes in the data year to year, the pattern of clustering among the schools is equally significant. Some 219 points separate Kellogg/Hong Kong UST Business School at the top, from the two schools ranked number 89. The first ten business schools, from Kellogg/Hong Kong UST to Insead, form the top group of schools. The second group is headed by Purdue/Tias/CEU/GISMA, which would need to increase its score by 11 per cent overall in order to move up a group. Top of the third group is the Robinson College of Business of Georgia State University which is 7 points behind Stockholm School of Economics. Only 40 points separate the top and bottom schools in this third group.
