Well, you are opening Pandora's box :-) You should expect some strong supporters of these schools coming forth in the subsequent posts.
My personal advice is to decide if you are intersted in Singapore or Hongkong. If Singapore, go for NUS. If Hongkong, go for HKUST. Remember, HKUST is more into finance and may not be the best place to target consulting firms. Of the two - NUS and HKUST, I would choose the former for your field of interest.

That’s what the catch is. The skill lies in efficiently selecting the right college. Anyway, this is where rankings come into the picture. Opt for a college with good ranking and the favor is done.

That is true. But its not just the ranking which we should be concerned of. Other aspects like academic courses offered, faculty, internships, return on investment and placements also should be given equal importance. We also have to see the school’s reputation. It can be checked by whether it is accredited by an internationally recognized body such as the AMBA (Association of MBAs) or TEQSA (Tertiary education quality and standards agency)

In today’s competitive world, we all want to venture into the different business cultures and not limit ourselves. Hence, to expand our horizon, we should even consider the scope which a bschool gets us. This leads to a brighter future for the student.

There is Nanyang Business School, Melbourne Business, University of Wisconsin, UCLA, UC Berkeley, Columbia University, Sheffield Hallam University among many many others. You really need to do a lot of research before confirming anything!
