Work experience before undergrad?

<p>I am well aware that solid work experience is necessary prior to applying to a top tier MBA program....</p>

<p>How will business schools view applicants with 3 years of solid work experience prior to the applicants' undergraduate education?</p>

<p>I am currently 27 years old and plan on graduating next spring. Before enrolling in a university, I worked in various private education academies throughout the metropolitan area of Seoul, Korea for approximately 3 years. I was promoted several times and eventually held the title of academic director before leaving Korea to finish my undergraduate education.</p>

<p>Is my work experience, prior to graduating from my unviersity, relevant in applying to top MBA programs?</p>

<p>In my opinion I think your work experience counts.</p>
