i just earned my bachelors degree in business this past May and have been considering going back to get my MBA. I want to wait to have more work experience first as I've been told that: a) many business schools won't accept you w/o at least 2 years of professional experience, b) you won't appreciate the MBA as much unless you work, c) although an MBA is great to have, many employers would rather you have the equivalent work experience. In this economy, many of my friends have decided to get their MBA instead of trying to find a job. After talking to a few people who recently got their MBA but have no work experience, they have told me that their salaries are not what they expected. With the lack of jobs out there, they are being considered for the same positions in companies along with recent bachelor degree graduates....and they'll be paid the same.
My view: work for a few years and then return to get the MBA. The MBA will be more of value then.
I am going to take the GMAT's this fall. I'd rather take them when I am fresh out of school than a few years from now when I haven't studied in years.
