Message: How difficult is it to go straight from undergrad to a top 15 MBA program. According to Businessweek there are students with 0 work experience entering the top business schools. Maybe not H/W/S, but Stern, Fuqua, and the like. So I am assuming it is possible. Anybody care to comment? To help in your assessment of my candidacy, I have completed 1 undergrad (Biology), and will finish my 2nd undergrad (Economics) this year at U of Virginia. Dean's list, substantial student government experience, meaningful internships in Ibanking and equity research, CFA Level 2 candidate, GMAT 760... As I didn't apply this year, I will work this year with an eye to gaining admission in 2001. So I should have 1 year in undergrad internship work, and 1 year in full time work. Thanks in advance.
