Hello,

Well ! a very long story short--- could you tell a good B school in USA that will be enough to accept some one with over 22 years professionally experienced person.Current profile-marketing and sales/consultant in financial markets/real estate.
In general Schools that don't need a Gmat/gre test but selecting through essays and interviews.
My academic background has a degree which was done over 24 years ago in engineering in india and many short certificate courses from time to time.

thanks

Because speaking and listening are crucial, I don't think there are good fulltime MBAs in the US that don't require the GMAT.

No. Unlike TOEFL, the GMAT tests verbal reasoning. The schools use slightly different criteria to assess your ability to benefit the rest of your class, the school's corporate partners and the alumni. Age is a constraint: Someone younger can make more impact.

What's your background and what are your goals

Many students with that much work experience choose to pursue an EMBA program - which tend to be aimed at those with substantial work experience, and are more likely to waive GMAT requirements.

Thanks Maury for the response.

Yes background experience....multiple streams of professional jobs for the last 24 Yrs,currently sales and marketing in financial markets trading/real estate/ecommerce and before in IT.Academically got a UG degree in electronics and communication 24 years ago.
Has some certificate courses between this period.

Yes goals,good Q....to supplement,fill and learn new skills.Managing using new methods and thoughts.Start an enterprise/business which will benefit people and their needs to make the world a better place to live.

You know most of what I learned 25 yrs ago has or is getting absolute slowly.But the world is rapidly changing and so fast in the last 25 years than what has changed in the last 100-150 years before that.
Even the way of managing every aspects of things with efficiency..

I found EMBA is more practically oriented and sharing and learning from others experiences,rather than just theoretical or academic concepts.
This is what I look forward but it depends on the college too as they have a part to play.

Any way I do want to take GMAT but I just need some time to prepare,which for people like me has little time.

Yes, an EMBA seems rather appropriate for you, or even a General Management Program (GMP).

If you don't want to make substantial shifts in function, location, or industry, a full-time MBA is probably not the right choice.
