Yes, I had a similar question as the one posed above. It IS quite a general one, but what how does work experience figure into a top-tier MBA school's admissions decisions. Would something in the ballpark of one or two years of solid work experience be enough to satisfy some of these schools? Thanks!!

if you worked as a restaurant manager when you were studying for your bachelor, is it countable as a work experience?
