I am planning to give GMAT in next few months but I am really very worried if my work experience will be considered worthy or not.I have more 4 years of experience of teaching in a B school of a Indian Private University as an Assistant Professor.So I am concerned if universities in USA consider teaching experience as valid experience.
My educational qualification is:
1: Bachelors in Mathematics (3 years degree from Delhi university)
2: Masters of finance and control (2 years from Amity university)

I have invested around 3 months for preparing GMAT now and I am really looking forward to give this exam but this thought keep on moving in my mind and I am afraid that this is going to affect my performance.
Please help

Hi Neha,
I do not see a reason why would any US B-School not consider your work experience. However, you should have a proper strategy aligned with your application package. Because MBA is a professional degree and changing careers from teaching to lets say consulting should be properly explained.
I hope you understand my point.
Best of luck for your GMAT and MBA journey. Let me know if I can help.
Cheers.

Well, it would definitely count as work experience but it would raise some questions of course. Why are you changing to a different field? How will an MBA help you do that? How will what you have done so far help you moving forward? Etc.

Additionally, I am not sure all US schools would be equally impressed by such experience so it is also about demonstrating fit with the schools you apply to of course.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
