Does having a work experience like yours (4 years) give you edge during the MBA?
There is no definite answer to it. You can easily relate to the few subjects based on your work experience. But freshers bring different perspectives to the class, which is a great value addition. You will be amazed to see what they bring to the table, and everyone, irrespective of work experience, is unique. And that is the beauty of the course; people from different backgrounds contribute to collaborative learning. You might hear people say this company prefers freshers that the company experienced. There are many other criteria no one knows except the company. There is no segregation like freshers experienced in the college.
What would you advise for the upcoming IIMB batch?
I would say take this as a pinch of salt as every person unique in his/her capabilities and way of working. From my experience, I would say if you have got into IIMB, you have already come to the halfway, don't procrastinate on things (easier said than done). Keep pace with all the curriculum else you will be creating unnecessary pressure on yourself. Besides studies, there will be lots of activities, events happening around you, try to be part of these. Enjoy the perks of being a part of the place to B.
