&lt;p&gt;There&amp;rsquo;s more movement on the &lt;em&gt;U.S. News&lt;/em&gt; Business Best Business School Rankings than on a Chinese checkers board. This year, ten schools improved at least six places over last, and at least 19 schools dropped by eight or more places in a single year, observes &lt;em&gt;Poets &amp;amp; Quants&lt;/em&gt;. The Roy E. Crummer Graduate School of Business plummeted from 57 all the way down to the survey&amp;rsquo;s lowest rank of 107. What&amp;rsquo;s going on here? &lt;em&gt;P&amp;amp;Q&lt;/em&gt;&amp;rsquo;s John Byrne explains.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;How is it possible for an MBA program to fall by such large numbers in a single year? Frankly, it wouldn&amp;rsquo;t be very possible at all if the ranking had greater authority. More than a measure of the fall in quality of any school, these huge differences in a 12-month period are more indicative of the flaws in U.S. News&amp;rsquo; methodology. In many cases, extreme volatility suggests that the differences among schools are so small as to be statistically insignificant. So very small changes in what &lt;em&gt;U.S. News&lt;/em&gt; measures can cause wide swings in the year-over-year results.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;[Poets &amp;amp; Quants]&lt;/p&gt;
