I have 4 years of work ex. Will my lesser work experience go against my candidature?

No, it won't. There are quite a few candidates with 4 years of experience in the batch (that is the minimum experience criteria for admission). So, a lower experience doesn't hurt you really. What matters is the quality of experience and how you are able to justify the reason for doing an MBA in your application and essays. Also, people with lower experience are expected to have a higher GMAT, unless of course you are from a niche background
