Talking about Indian institutes, IIM Ahmedabad and ISB Hyderabad were ranked on multiple parameters for previous sessions. However, this year the ranking table does not include grades against different parameters.

As per the official website “The statistical methodology adopted for ranking gives each business school a unique score (known to statisticians as a z-score). Unlike some other rankings, we do not include any ‘equal’ schools".

"For this reason, individual school profiles now include a banding (A-E), so that schools with similar overall scores are grouped together", the website further reads.
