I rather agree with Abhi on this point. Absolutely no question is foolish or immature.
when you answer such an innocent question, many aspects of you and your school comes out. I never asked anyone about hard data but I generally asked about their own feelings about job, career change, school support etc. How he/she feels and why he/she feels that way.
It is unbelieveable for me to digest that current students has absolutely no idea about job status of their fellow students/cohorts or how the school helps them. The reason can be
a. They are really cluless
b. They are arrogant and don't want to share anything
c. Their school is not doing anything meaningful to mention
whichever way, it is not a good signal for me.
A helpful alumni network is more important than the so called ranking by another commercial institution.
MBA with a class size < 50 students. Is it worth it ?

I am not sure about others but I am not a professional coach here, so i don't have any reservations about answering specific queries & comments. I have used my own experience & understanding to research business schools extensively and and I have repeatedly requested prospective MBA students not to follow these internet forums blindly, rather use them to take pointers & ideas to do further research. I don't get offended when others questions my views, they have every right to do so.
AbhiJ, I know which questions to ask & which to avoid. Any & every question could be meaningful to someone but there are questions which can never be answered.
WBC I agree with you, current students (mostly international) at many good schools tend to join the school based on the school's ranking in a few B-school rankings but later they realize the reality is very different as far as career support & available job opportunities in the region are concerned.
Hope it helps.
