How to Use the Rankings: Tuck Dean Danos, FT's Della Bradshaw

The US News rankings for 2007 came out last week and BusinessWeek's biannual rankings will come out this fall. The WSJ, Forbes, Economist, and Financial Times, among others also publish rankings at different times during the year.

Rankings, rankings, rankings. Is #1 really the school for you? Is #10 really better than #11? How much better? Considering the controversy swirling around rankings, how can you use them? Make the most of them?
