I attended WomenRice (the admission team is pretty cool!) and interviewed last week. I was told that we will have a decision by December 4th.

I had my interview last night. And unlike many people have described here, my interviewer asked me lot of questions. I don't remember the sequence but I'm trying my best to mention all.
1. Walk me through your Resume.
2. Why MBA and why Rice MBA.
3. An instance where I showed Leadership and what did I learn from it.
4. An instance when I handled a conflict.
5. Any Co-curricular activities I participated in.
6. What I had done if I was not having this interview.
7. What sorts of organizations I want to work with during Internship.
8. Two weaknesses I have. How I'm working on them.
9. Have I interacted with anyone on the campus.
10. How I see myself contributing to the Rice community.

These are all the questions I can recall. I hope this helps.

Hello Prospective JGSBers,

I was interviewed today, pretty much same standard questions such as why MBA, why Rice, why now, short term & long term, what's your leadership style with examples, how many people you led... I am not sure how well did it go .. Fingers crossed ...

All the best guys ..

Nothing here. It looks like last year the deadline to hear back by was Friday December 5th and they didn't start hearing back until Thursday the 4th.
