Summary: Not bad for a quick start
Review: This book gives a lot of usefull information about a lot of MBA programs, but I found a lack of top ten U.S. schools. Some of them are missing, there is a huge gap between the best schools and those ranked below. (Some of them are ranked below #100).I prefer this book than browsing the net because at a glance you can have interesting information of many, many MBA's and the information is well organized. GMAT means, ratio applications/accepted, strong subjects, deadlines, number or students, main features, % of student body, all the basic information to get to know what an MBA may you offer and wheter it's appealing depending on your targets. The europen chapter is better than anyone. The U.S. chapter is not wide enough, but not bad. If you are deciding to which MBA you should apply, this book will help you to shorten your starting list and focus on 10 to 12 MBA programs. Then which one to choose it's up to you

Summary: Great guide and now a great site
Review: This is a fantastic guide to MBA programs for non-geographically challenged Americans. The first part of the book discusses admission requirements, the objectives of an MBA and the results of a global survey with academics, students and alumni. The second part provides listings of over 100 schools, including the biggest and best in North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific. In addition, they have just launched a website alongside the print guide...

Summary: Good International, Bad USA
Review: This series used to contain "raw comments" from students which I found very interesting. Now, Business Week is the only one that publishes them. Interesting statistics, good summaries. But pretty duplicative of any other book, web site, WSJ, BW, etc. Except for international. Very highly recommended if you're looking at international schools off the beaten path. Getting long in the tooth.
