大家申请时经常说到M7，M7是什么东西?

Tuck is considered an honorary M7 school among most of the MBA applicants. Great school.

I guess any school made into Top 10 several times in the history can be called "Top 10".

Anyway, many programs are unique in their own ways, just pick the one that fits you the best.

P.S. Chandler, Nice to see u here. Thought you're somewhere enjoying life and forget about this forum.

Hi Doer, nice to post amongst all these familiar IDs. you know CD can be a big addiction. I was luckily busy enough to not check it as often. But it's always on my mind! :-)

是啊，CD真的是很容易上瘾的。以前看gmat版的时候还没这种感觉，但自从混北美版之后就不能自拔了。。。

Doer

我几乎每天来灌，还没灌成蝙蝠侠。一看就知道不务正业的，一混混。据说牛人都不来CD呢～～看到哪位xd帖子里讲的。谁知道“牛人”是否换个id常来灌水呢，呵呵。

这个对大家报自己的本科学校也适用
清华北大的都说自己是TOP2，说TOP3的很多是科大，TOP5的一般是复旦，浙大，南大
再下来就是什么211名校了

接着Cova, 再次借用BW上的一个总结：
http://forums.businessweek.com/n/pfx/forum.aspx?tsn=1&nav=messages&webtag=bw-bschools&tid=73431

The label M7 is a far less official term than "ivy league".

The ivy league itself is an athletic conference in which members set high standards for student athletes. People have come to associate it with academics.

The forum legend is that "M7" was coined by a Columbia dean who referred to a meeting of top business schools.  It is a challenge to find any business school that uses that term in their admissions materials or  websites (contrast this with the use of the 'ivy league' name).

To be blunt, people use these terms to associate their schools with better ranked schools.  How often do you hear HBS bragging about being in the M7? Or Yale reminding people it's in the Ivy League?

Here's a quick guide:

If someone describes their school as the top ranked school, they go to HBS or Stanford
If someone says they go to a "Top 3" school, they go to Wharton
If someone says they go to a "Top 5" school, its either Chicago, Kellogg, or MIT Sloan
If someone says they're in the "M7", they go to Columbia
If someone says "Top 10", they mean Tuck, Ross, Haas, or <insert whatever school you insist belongs in the top ten, thus proving my point>

1993年2月13日中共中央、国务院印发的《中国教育改革和发展纲要》及国务院《关于<中国教育改革和发展纲要>的实施意见》中，关于“211工程”的主要精神是：为了迎接世界新技术革命的挑战，面向21世纪，要集中中央和地方各方面的力量，分期分批地重点建设100所左右的高等学校和一批重点学科、专业，使其到2000年左右在教育质量、科学研究、管理水平及办学效益等方面有较大提高，在教育改革方面有明显进展，力争在21世纪初有一批高等学校和学科、专业接近或达到国际一流大学的水平。并可概括表述为：“211工程”就是面向21世纪，重点建设100所左右的高等学校和一批重点学科点。
