I see many measures:
- The eye-opening growing awareness of how the economic world works.
- The daily opportunity to practice persuading your classmates.
- The opportunity to met and build relationships with a lot of very accomplished people.
- The number of attractive companies who come there to recruit.
- The average starting salary of graduates.
- The percentage of graduates who have jobs at graduation.
- The average size of alumni annual donations (as a measure of their financial success and loyalty).
- The number of C-level alumni in Fortune Global 500.
- The percentage of alumni who say their lives were significantly enriched by attending.
- The number of books written by faculty that you'd want to read.
- The percentage of classes based on student active case discussions.
- The number of faculty with Nobel Prizes.
- Investment in their entrepreneurial incubator.
- Quality of their international student experiences.
- The loan payback ratio.
Find the index of those given your priority assessments for each and I'd say you had a reasonable measure of the value of an MBA to you.
Good luck with your choice. Posted on Quora.
