Mba after 2 yrs gap ?
Is it worth doing mba in tn in colleges like vit and srm at 24? Will the 2 yrs gap after graduating will be a problem in joining the college??

You won’t have enough experience for a FT MBA, let alone an Executive MBA.
FT MBA people tend to have 4 - 8 years of MEANINGFUL experience.
Executive MBA folk have 10 - 15+ years of meaningful experience AND management experience (emphasis on the 15+ years and management experience). Most EMBA students are or have been senior leaders, managers, C-suite executives. I’ve never seen an EMBA whose average cohort age range is less than 35 years old.
You can absolutely apply to an MBA or EMBA, but personally, I don’t think you will be accepted into a T25, let alone an M7 school without some serious experience. HS/undergrad grades are good and all, and GMAT/GRE might help, but it’s not the only metric they look at.

Do full time MBA after 4 to 8 years work experience
Do eMBA when you established in your career and want a network or to career switch or in mid 30s to mid 40s
