Jim Rice - Performance ranks
Tribal: VFB% percentile
37%
Tribal: rVAP percentile
40%
Performance ranks are a quick visual measure of the contestant's season vs. historical data from all prior contestants, in three basic (scorable) categories:
1. Performance in individual challenges (MPF), as a measure of "physical game";
2. Ability to vote people out consistently (VFB%, or VFB/TCA), or "strategic game"; and
3. Ability to avoid being voted against (rVAP, or TCA-VAP) - which scales better than a percentage would - for "social/strategic game."

Jim Rice - Bio
S23:
South Pacific Excerpts from his official CBS South Pacific bio page:
"Personal Claim to Fame: I’ve worked on Wall Street, won over 40 poker tournaments, started several successful businesses and earned my MBA at a top five school from the University of Michigan.
Pet Peeves: Close-mindedness and disingenuous people.
Survivor Contestant You Are Most Like: Ethan. The dude dominated so much and was such a good guy that they practically gave him the one million.
Why you think you will be the sole Survivor: No one with my combination of character, intelligence, cunning and athleticism has ever been on Survivor. "
