to be honest, you are very young, and you will have a very minimal amount of work experience if you apply this year. yes, most schools say a minimum of 2y of work experience, but a. some ask for 3, and b. it is quite unique for a 23-year-old to get into an MBA (although, from what you are saying, it sounds like you will be overqualified for a Master in Management...)
I am wondering if your 1.5Y in a big four is all post-graduation?
And your startup sounds great, but it is obviously part-time.
I think you should wait 1-2 more years, and then apply (With a stronger profile) to some top schools, or apply now, to some lower ranked schools. your call!
happy to look at your CV and give you a deeper analysis...
I am always on
Shimriw@ARINGO.comGOOD LUCK!
