is work experience important/needed?

<p>is work experience important?</p>

<p>if u were to look around on this board, im sure u'd find a load of similar threads, but the summary of them is roughly this:</p>

<p>if you have, great, if you don't it's not that important</p>

<p>Work experience is important for the future, even if it isn't heavily factored into college admissions. Colleges will want to see that you spend your time (including summers) profitably, so as long as you do that, then you're all set.</p>
