Is WORK EXPERIENCE compulsory getting adm. through GMAT? If yes, then how many years?

Question

I am an Engineer,i.e, i have a four year degree. Is work experience still compulsory? If yes, then how many years?

Answer 1

I am an MBA grad, GMAT tutor and admissions consultant.
Most top tier programs require at least 2 years of work experience. It also depends on the culture of the school. Schools such as Harvard have a slightly older class with more work experience. Schools such as UCLA tend to have less years of work experience but love high GMAT scores.
The beauty of any legitimate MBA program is that the students get the benefit of sharing their work experiences. It is what makes a good school even better.
Applicants without work experience do not have this to add and are generally not seriously considered by top 25 programs.

Answer 2

no
but if you have an experience of more than 3 yrs , u r more preferred than others when u go for your interveiws
