Mba without work experience.

Question

I’m planning to do my mba in the USA but I don’t have any work experience. Can anyone suggest colleges which would accept students w/o work exp? I have my gre and ielts exams scheduled soon. I might get a work exp of 6 months. Is that enough?

There is no point spending so much on an MBA without having work ex. If you dont know how the industry works whats the point of it.

Go for MEM OR MIS

Praveen Kumar · Answer

Yeah you could definitely do. But just that it would be better if you have 2 or 3 years of work experience. Many top colleges take students without work experience. Get a top score on your GRE!

You could get into universities in California, however most universities seek work experience of atleast 3 years for MBA admits. The fee could also be hefty.

Consider giving GMAT and IELTS if you are targeting MBA.

Prudhvi Raju · Answer

Again, depends on the university whether they accept GRE scores for MBA admits, if they do, there's no issue.

I would higly recommend masters, considering your experience. You can opt for masters courses in Business Management as well, there are a variety of them across universities.

Aswell GRE and IELTS are enough for masters admits. You could as well get into top 25 colleges if you consider masters. Also it would cost half of what an MBA would cost.

If you plan to maintain a good GPA throughout, avg starting salaries range from 60k$ pa, can go upto 130k$ pa for masters graduates depending upon the specialization.

So I heard from multiple people that the quant section is pretty tough in gmat which made me choose gre.

Is it possible for me to get into unis which at least come within top 100?

Without experience, would you suggest an mba or a masters course for me?

Vaishnavi Vaishnavi · Answer

Do you think I’d be able to get good job options by doing masters in the US?

Vaishnavi Vaishnavi · Answer

Thank you so much. Now I got a clarity on whether I should choose mba or masters. Which masters specialisation would fetch me a good job with good salary? I’m actually interested in international business. Will masters in international business be good?
