Admissions committees evaluate the GMAT/GRE in context — your background, your representation in the applicant pool, the strength of everything else in your file. The same score works for one candidate and falls short for another with identical numbers.

I am a working professional with 12 years of work experience in the Aviation Industry. Have a Bachelor's degree in Engineering.
Recently got admitted into the McCombs (UT) Houston PMBA program as well as Jones (Rice) PMBA program. Both part-time programs are highly ranked.
* While UT is a General MBA, Rice allows you to choose electives in the 2nd year. Not that I have anything I want to major in.
* UT ranks higher although Rice is not far behind. Also, the McCombs brand name seems to be much stronger than Jones.
* I am looking to be a career switcher. My main goal is to gain skills and knowledge enough to leverage my current experience and change jobs.
* I prefer staying in Houston but will obviously not turn down a good opportunity outside of Houston if one arises.
* My heart is leaning towards UT but I have been told that Rice has a stronger network in Houston and that having a main campus (versus UT satellite location) is a BIG positive.
* I do not have a target industry but I am looking into alternate energy / renewable resources.
* I am currently into product management. I do not have a target discipline but I do have a liking for finance and/or supply-chain.
* Entrepreneurship: I've always wanted to run my own business (have a couple of ideas) but never had the guts to take the plunge. Always played it safe by working a regular 9-to-6 job.
Help ?
A confused lad.

Hello,
I am searching through the forums for people facing the same decision that I am and am curious which one you ended up going with and what you think so far.
UT wants my decision in a couple of days, very torn. One caveat is that I applied to the online MBARice program which is quite new.
