Hi Sir,

I wanted to know more about the work experience required in MBA admission.

In general if I am targeting top 10 B school how much work ex would you recommend me just to be on the safer side. A couple of my friends have made it top schools like Wharton, Duke and Darden even with work experience around 3 to 4 years.. although the average they quote is much higher.. like around 5 years or so.. What would you advise..?

I wanted to get the some information in this regard.

Hello, well it depends a bit on what you do and how you progress. The absolute minimum is 2 years (for MBB people for example), for most folks 3 years, and then five is usually a better number of years experience.

Hope this answers your questions!!!!
