I've spent some time researching both MBA Programs now and from what I've found, reports blow Texas A&M's School out of the water when compared to Flores.

Am I crazy to think that the reasoning for this has to do with the networking connections candidates can make at the school or is their program overall just..dare I say it...better?

Discuss.

Mays is better.

I made the same decision after I graduated LSU.

Who knows who gives the better education but A&M has inflated their entrance requirements to give the illusion of a better education so as far as national recognition, you're probably better off turning gay and going there.

As far as connections go...A&M alumni, at least in the Houston area, take care of each other better than any school I've come across.

I find the LSU guys help out their own as well. I think A&M has such a stronghold because of numbers. They do stick together though. Holy shite.

Mays is a bit better than Flores. I despise A&M, but they do have a fantastic MBA program, and I must give them respect where respect is due. Do it at the Houston campus though, that way you dont have to suffer through a few years in C Stat haha Their alumni network is really impressive.

CS isn't that bad. If you're doing the MBA you generally won't interact with the tards that are undergrad.

The bar set up is far superior and it is cheap as hell to live there. Supposedly their tailgating has improved since I was there almost 10 years ago.

If you plan to live in Louisiana go to LSU, but if you're going to live in Texas go to A&M. If will give your a broader alumni network.

Hypothetically, what if I attend the Flores Program but don't have plans to live Louisiana afterwards (Been in Louisiana my whole life, I hope to come across an opportunity elsewhere).

Does the OT's opinion on the program differentiate?

FWIW, I've tried to research where the Flores program places its' graduate students after completion but other than Houston I haven't heard much.

The only perk of C Stat haha Tomball kid here. Been going there since high school to hang out with buddies. Northgates set up is cool, but the local PD is what kills it.

I'd go to Mays then. They have better national recognition than Flores.
