Relaxed WE requirements for JD/MBA
Posted: Mon Jan 11, 2010 4:00 am
I am curious what nullification effect, if any, significant in-school employment has on the dreaded "straight from undergrad" disadvantage when applying to B-schools. Specifically, I have worked 1500-2000 hours per year every year of undergrad across several positions, including what amounts to about half-time employment over the last 3 years in an MIS role at a fairly large bay area non-profit. It's not exactly 5 years of full-time banking, but does this experience count for anything? Would it be enough if I were to apply to an MBA program as a joint degree during 1L year at a T6 law school?
Any advice about specific programs or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated.
