show changes in the data year to year, the pattern of clustering among the schools is equally significant. A total of 270 points separate Kellogg/Hong Kong UST Business School, at the top, from the school at number 100. The first nine business schools, from Kellogg/HKUST Business School to Duke University: Fuqua, form the top group of schools. The second group is headed by the Chinese University of Hong Kong, which would need to increase its score by nine points to move up a group. Top of the third group is Rice University: Jones, six points behind Boston University School of Management. A total of 45 points separate the top and bottom schools in this third group. The fourth group is more spread out, separated by 70 points. Key to the table (weighting in brackets) Salary today (US$) (20) The average alumni salary three years after graduation.

A total of 270 points separate Kellogg/Hong Kong UST Business School, at the top, from the school at number 100. The first nine business schools, from Kellogg/HKUST Business School to Duke University: Fuqua, form the top group of schools. The second group is headed by the Chinese University of Hong Kong, which would need to increase its score by nine points to move up a group. Top of the third group is Rice University: Jones, six points behind Boston University School of Management. A total of 45 points separate the top and bottom schools in this third group. The fourth group is more spread out, separated by 70 points.
