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 some information in this regard.

Honestly, there is no "right" answer to this one. What you want to show is why business school is the next step in your career. If you have a quality 3-4 years the admissions committee will see that.
