just a bunch of numbers games as news flash. if you look at HBS, by the increase in headcount, they had +600 but was only mediocre in % comparing to +500 of Booth or merely +200 for Tepper

Other than Cornell (probably going through merger "synergies" now) and Georgetown (surprisingly an urban MBA program), the others are middle-of-pack schools that don't have a strong corp presence in the vicinity - basically death for int'ls who go to professional services more often for sponsorships
