I think it depends on ur priorities & preferences that no1 but u can decide.

as far as work-ex is concerned, it is really good to have some experience before u join a B-school. it gives u a holistic view of biz world. its not mandatory, but advisable. And with not so good acads, work-ex wud be of gr8 help.

Hi,

The question is what are your priorities ; Why do u wanna do MBA? Is is only for the name and fame or you want to go into the field of management ? Work Ex is good but u have to understand that preparation along with Work isn't gonna be easy . If u like the IT industry, take some exposure first and then go for MBA or if u feel MBA is ur ultimate destination, why wait for a few yrs ?
