Duke and its not even close. The Hopkins' program is brand new. They will still be working out the kinks and there is no guarantee that it will ever become ranked.

Hopkins is not even accredited by AACSB yet. The University is a great brand, but it is yet to carry over to the brand new business school. Comparing with Duke is not even apples and oranges comparison, more like apples and germinating seeds of unknown origin. Unless you have some really convincing personal reasons - JH Carey Business School is a pure gamble at this moment.

My goal is to make MBA applicants take onus over their process.
