There also are some wild variations between the ranks of programs on the lists. Most notably, Erasmus University Rotterdam School of Management’s MIM program is ranked fifth by the FT, but dead last at 40th by The Economist, though Rotterdam’s placement rate of 68% placed it 38th in that category (see tables on following pages that compare program rankings). The FT, however, puts only a 5% weight on three-month placement, while The Economist puts slightly more than a 12% emphasis on that metric.
