MBA without work experience
Sun Dec 06, 2009 12:20 AM
Hello all.
I am currently studying BE Aerospace IIIrd year in India. I have maintained 7.5 GPA and hope to pass out with that.I am interested in pursuing MBA General in Europe or US.But i am searching for an option without work experience.I am yet to give GMAT and IELTS,though I am preparing for both.What grades do i need to get in these tests to get myself to a good B-school(without work ex i.e.). As the aerospace scene here is not very fruitful----low scope-low salary ----i cannot think of working for an organisation to gain experience.Please guide me fellow threaders as I'm in a fix!Going through the website of all accredited schools, i find none with intake minus work ex.I'll be extremely grateful if someone guides me to MBA glory..

Hi Meenal,

I would suggest you not to opt for MBAs which require no prior work-experience.You will have to settle for B-Grade business school. None of the reputed B-Schools offers MBA without Work-Experience.

Best option for you will be to apply for MSc Management courses at reputed Business Schools!

i must agree with this - most MBA programs which do not require work ex are not really worth it! do an MSc instead, or gain some work experience.....

on the importance of work experience read this:

I have maintained 7.5 GPA and hope to pass out with that.
> GPA is universally graded on a 5 point scale measure..7.5 means (if I am not mistaken) 75%...thats 1:1 in UK or 3.2 (approx) in USA ; you are in good standing provided you dont have any backlogs and have decent extracurriculars+awards


But i am searching for an option without work experience.
>MBA without experience is utopia...well some Unis do dole out some concoction but its better not to drink that. If you dont have experience (more or equal to 5 yrs) you have to look for MS (in USA) or MSc (in UK) degrees...Some MS/MSc degrees got special requirement in terms of work-ex and GRE/GMAT & Toefl/Ielts score requirement so do your research carefully.


What grades do i need to get in these tests to get myself to a good B-school(without work ex i.e.)
>Generally 650+ in GMAT or 1250+ in GRE is a good score with 4.0 in AWA. For Toefl IBT a good score is 105+ and for IELTS its band 7.5+
