Over all, Fuqua is a general management school, especially holds good reputation in Healthcare managemnet. However, Fuqua is also very strong in marketing part and the ranking of its finance is rising in top MBA programs.

You right but I was talking about "general reputation" or say, "general ranking". When you take b-schools, you don't just look at the b-school's ranking. You'll also consider how the school in overal. right?

For me, the team working environment, creativity in business counts a lot when I decided to apply Faqua.

it really important whether you matched the school or not, don't pay too much attention to the ranking.

good points! unfortunately, many applicants don't have enough time to investigate schools, therefore, the ranking 大行其道.
