請教讀過MBA或現在正在讀MBA的各位前輩

[wiggy]

常常聽到前輩建議大家起碼要有2或3年以上的工作經驗後才值得申請MBA
也看到學校的student profile平均工作經驗都在五年左右
最近看到版友分享interview被問到了對於工作經驗少於平均的本身看法
因為我也未達平均年資，而這問題讓我聯想到
有些學校確實也有收應屆大學畢業的學生
請問你們是否有跟那些人接觸過或是聽說過他們的情狀
我比較好奇的是，那些沒有工作經驗就被錄取讀MBA的人
what do they have in common?-Straight A stuents? or 800 GMAT?
how or what do they contribute to the class?
and what's your impression about them?

我真的很好奇，可以說說看嗎
謝謝

never heard of non-experienced student here so far

but the most critical spot should be the profound understanding of pratical manegement or brilliant potential of manegerial expertise

academy performance may be a minor consideration unless it's closely connected with managerial practices
due to significantly pulling down the average year of experience
which is a critical ranking indicator
whereas average GPA is not a big deal that can be easily acquire from other experienced applicants

the only benefit from non-experienced applicant is diversity for student body
once the school has the presence of non-expericed student
the job is done
the fewer non-experienced students
the higher the average year of experience

My friend was accepted by HBS, Standford, and Columbia straight from his undergraduate and he's only 22.

He not only has a near perfect GPA, but he also a 700+ GMAT. On top of his academic records, he interned for McKinsey and American Express. In another word, he's exceptional in every way... He told me there is another girl in his class that went straight from undergrad to b-school. She won a beauty peagent in India and is the author or two books. So... it's possible, but you have to be a superstar. You have to convince Adcom that they will regret it if they don't accept you. Hope this helps.

謝謝TooLegit2Quit的意見，感覺非常有用呢。

一般唸MBA我認為還是要有些工作經驗比較好，除非有非常優秀的條件，不然很難讓人相信你可以給課堂更好的建議。

去年有一為老美哈佛法學院的學生，undergrad結束直攻HBS，GPA接近滿分，AT也很高(770+)，也有很強的國際經驗，會說四五種語言，可是還是不敵其它強大的申請者慘敗，所以光是優秀可能還不夠。參考一下囉～

Totally agree with Charlene
TooLegit2Quit also made critical points too
that's the brilliant potential of manegerial expertise

it'll be more efficient to study after having some real world experience
no matter how brilliant
it's really very hard to imagine what you never see it or experience it
and not only for contribution
it's the learning after obstacles
you'll learn much much more from these obstacles
