Table notes
Although the headline ranking figures show the changes in the survey year to year, the pattern of clustering among the
schools is also significant. Some 195 points separate the top school from the school ranked 100 in the 2009 ranking. The
top 10 schools, from the joint first London Business School and Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania to New
York University: Stern, form the leading group of world class business schools. Some 31 points separate LBS and
Wharton from Stern. The second group is headed by the University of Chicago: Booth which scored 57 points more than
University of California at Berkeley: Haas, leader of the third group. The fourth group is headed by University of
California at Irvine: Merage and includes schools ranked from 74 to 100.
