As per FT their ranks are -

CEIBS
HKUST
ISB
MBS (Melbourne)
NUS
AIM - i remember until few yrs ago AIM used to be among top ranked b schools in asia, wats happening now

As compared to europe or us these schools have better ROI

CEIBS & HKUST - encourages its students to learn chinese/mandarian - which in one sense is good but in another sense adds more burden in addition to MBA studies

CEIBS & HKUST - have pretty small batch size as compared to ISB !

I really wonder why ISB is increasing batch size so rapidly from 300 3 yrs ago to 560 this yr !! I am not sure if they are recruiting faculties in the same ratio !!

My opinion of CEIBS & HKUST - good if u want to work in HK, China, great schools for finance !!

More thn 60% Chinese/taiwanese students ( not an issue but a feature)

Small batch size gives u gud visibility and interaction with faculties !!

MBS - one of the oldes b school in APAC. Was ranked high during early 2000s somehow has dropped in FT ranking - dont know the reasons !!

AIM, Manila - no clues - someone pls throw sme light !!

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
