danaJ - maybe you can go for your MBA after your Masters?
But I've definitely heard this before "- you won't make the most of it. You'll be in a class where everybody has had much more hands on experience than yourself and you'll most likely feel slightly overwhelmed. " This is why I'm not too sure about programs like the HBS 2+2 program.

My goal is to make MBA applicants take onus over their process.

I know people that went to business school immediately after undergrad. Here is what you will need to do. You are going to have to take the time to really craft your story. It is going to be extremely important that you can communicate effectively and efficiently why you want and MBA and more importantly why this is the right time for you to get an MBA. The admissions officers are really going to want a great response to the why now question. If you don't have a good answer, even with great stats, you probably won't obtain admissions.

I don't know anyone that has done it... but I know that for me... that would not have been the right time to go. For starters I wasn't mature enough... i think it depends on the industry you wish to pursue...in my industry (digital marketing) you can only be in the industry with experience... the caveat is that it doesn't necessarily mean that you have had a traditional 9-5

@money9111: The grand plan is to go for the MBA after the masters and maybe a couple of years of experience. I already have around one year of WE, but it's not sufficient.
@osirus0830: While a fresh graduate might be able to get into business school with the right numbers, background and essays, my main point is that it's not worth going into it in the first place.
