I also got community invite couple of days back.

Hey Bro , Things are pretty good here! Just wrapping up festivals and going back to den again tomorrow! Hope things are going well in Houston. We would love to understand a little more on Rice and your experience so far. Wonder if we could do an AMA with you (doesn't need to be live but you answer whenever you are available) Was anxious if it's a ding from Rice but hen I emailed Joe Sato and he affirms that they will continue to interview through November and December so it's not a ding till it;s a ding!

What'd be the best option for Rice in terms of GRE-GMAT? I've my GMAT slated for 29th November; however, I'm not very much sure that I'd be able to go pass 710 mark. Whereas I appeared for GRE Diagnostic from Kaplan & Magoosh, I was able to score Q170 in 25 mins of time frame against stipulated 35 mins. Although, I'm struggling with Verbal i.e. V150, I still think with 2 weeks of intense prep can take this too V157-160 or maybe even more. I'm just confused what should I do now given that I'm targeting R2 and cannot wait for next year or delay it to R3? Posted from my mobile device

Hi Guys, anyone here who’s already done with the Community Assessment/interview? I see only one interview debrief for Rice.

Hi, most of the schools say that they are indifferent between GRE or GMAT. But from a job perspective, if your post-study career goal is into consulting, IB, VC/PE or such areas then in general employers prefer GMAT over GRE (atleast as what I heard).

rgup99 , You are correct and that’s my interview debrief. I had to post it to aid others prepping for the community assessment.

Any idea why Rice Jones QS global MBA ranking is consistently decreasing over the last few years? I can only see improvement in their career outcomes.
