Know-How Exchange : Advertising/PR

check with your academic affairs office, every school has different rules

Call the academic adviser of the school you are applying for -- each school differs. Some schools make it an absolute requirement to have a minimum amount of years of experience. Others don't care and just want tuition and people enrolled in their schools.

I'm not trying to be a smart mouth here, I'm seriously trying to give you good advice.

If you are working for a Master's Degree or at McDonald's it would serve you well to write using proper capitalization, grammar, spelling, and punctuation.

People judge you by your communication style. What do you want people to think about you? Do you want them to think that you are too lazy to type the word "to" so you use a number instead? That you don't know how to spell the word "experience"?

To be considered a professional, you must act like one. Everyone makes mistakes occasionally. I sure do. Your post shows a lack of respect for people on these boards and a laziness that will be unwelcome in the professional world.

Please know that I am offering this observation only to try and help you. I wish you the very best in all you do.

You may not need experience for some business schools, but you will for most of the top tier schools, and it would definitely be a huge advantage at any school.

Getting some experience before jumping into a master's program is something I would highly recommend. Marketing in the field is usually very different from marketing in the classroom. It varies widely across industries and companies. I think it's best to get your feet wet and experience the job before investing in a degree. Best of luck either way.
