Meredith MBAs Outperform 95% of MBAs Nationwide Meredith MBAs recently scored better than 95% of other MBA students from colleges and universities across the nation who took the ETS Field Test of Business, MBA. The nationally-normed test is used to assess mastery of business concepts, critical thinking, and reasoning ability for MBA students. Meredith gives the test to its graduating MBA students, and the results from May 2010 were outstanding. As a whole, Meredith MBAs scored at the 95th percentile, meaning they performed better than 95% of all other test-takers from other institutions. In addition to the exceptional overall score, Meredith students demonstrated superior performance in specific assessment areas, including outcomes in the 95th percentile in the fields of Management and Finance, and scores in the 90th percentile for Strategic Integration. ETS provides data for evaluation and comparison among colleges and universities nationwide. Scores are benchmarked against the performance of over 24,000 MBA students representing over 230 different institutions. In the last three years, the performance of Meredith MBAs averages at the 80th percentile. The trend upward reflects the continuous improvements in the MBA program as the School of Business celebrates its achievement of accreditation by AACSB, International, a distinction held by less than 5% of business schools across the globe. The Meredith MBA is a part-time evening program for working professionals. Small classes and dedicated faculty ensure that MBA students not only acquire the essential business knowledge, but can apply that knowledge to situations and problems in the workplace.
