<p>Here’s the 2011 NYT survey result:

<p>The 2011 survey covered “hundreds of chief executives and chairmen, chosen from leading companies in 10 countries”. It was compiled by one survey company (Emerging).</p>
<p>The 2012 survey covered “more than 2,500 recruiters and about 2,200 international chief executives and business managers”. They were chosen from “top companies in 20 countries”. It was compiled by 2 survey companies (Emerging and Trendence).</p>
<p>So this is not a repeat of quite the same survey. These are two different surveys reported by the NYT. The second one, like the first NYT-reported survey (but unlike the WSJ-reported survey), shows selective private universities dominating the top 10.</p>
