The biggest issue in going to B school straight from undergrad is that employers will be much less interested in you . . . I can tell you you would be a hard sell for elite jobs with just summer work experience.



I think this is the single biggest reason to consider working before going to a graduate business program, regardless of whether the program will admit you. My experience hiring MBA candidates has been similar.
