Second CEIBS. By most standards, it is the best in China, as well as one of the best in the world according to the FT ranking.

Of course, a name like that doesn't come cheap...

Is the Financial Times ranking credible? I can't find any explanation of the ranking methodology.

I have my doubts about the whole enterprise of ranking business schools across different countries. Much of the value of business school is networking and the actual practice of business is often very country-specific. How do you compare with a CEIB MBA to a Insead MBA, for instance? Doesn't it depend on what you want to do and where you want to do it?

See here for a list of schools accredited by the AACSB (The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business). For China (not including Hong Kong), the only listed business schools are:

China Europe International Business School (CEIBS)

Tsinghua University

I still think that rankings serve a purpose (if only to see what future employers are going to think of your school, because they often are heavily influenced by these lists), but I completely agree with you that the personal needs play a very important role.

Actually, you even have to make these distinctions within the same school. I met the China CEO of a large multinational, who had taken his MBA at CEIBS, and he told me that he went with the English stream to get more from his lectures (as most of the lecturers were foreigners, the Chinese stream lost half of their class time to translation). He learned later, however, that a lot of government bigwigs in need of a title for their business card were attending the Chinese stream (apparently at heavily reduced prices), so that for him running a company in China, the Chinese stream would have been the better option by far.
