corporate-rodeo is a B-School degree. But which B-School to go for?
A convenient method is to Google a

not be in the top 10 or 20.

B-School student, you would not simply take things for face value.You would want to do some personal
research which could be on the following lines:
1.
See the ROI (Return on Investment) 5 years out from business
school. Or Post-MBA salaries 3 years after graduation.
2.
Entrance exam scores as part of student selectivity.
3.
The ability of the MBA to open new career opportunities, as well
as the international make-up of the school.
Other information if available could
be:
4.
The satisfaction levels of two core stakeholders: students and
recruiters.
You can try to look up students of
those colleges on social networking sites and have a first-hand intel.
5.
Survey of deans and MBA directors.
