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 150 points separate HEC Paris at the top, from the school ranked number 65. The top 9 business schools,from HEC to Rotterdam School of Management, form the top group of schools. The second group is headed by Vlerick Leuven Gent Management School, which would need to increase its score by five per cent overall in order to enter the top group. The third group is headed by Edhec Business School.
