"Others" is a real catch all for industries such as dance (we have a ballet dancer this year), academic research (we had an MBA who just completed a PhD) etc etc. I don't recall anyone who came from an education background in the last 2 years but that does not mean that you don't stand a chance.
Depending on the industry that you want to move into, there might, or might not, be challenges. It will depend on your background, how strong you are and how much work you are willing to put in if the career transition is going to be a difficult one.
All the best.

I have 2 queries-
1. As a follow-up to @godspeed's query on TOEFL/IELTS, I want to know what is the mode through which an applicant can apply for waiver for the english language requirement. Do we have to upload any letter, if yes, in which part of the application. I have a certificate from my college stating English as the medium of instruction, where do I document that ?
2. In the academic information part of the application, there are 3 places to mention the education details. In case I want to include a fourth one, how do i do that ? Can I merge 3rd and 4th qualification ?

We have the option of providing a writeup on why we are requesting for a waiver on language testing requirements on the educational qualifications page of the application. Although you can't upload any documents you can at least exlplain why you think you should get a waiver.
Also as I understand, even if Cambridge waives the testing requirement we might still need to take a test (to meet the UK Border Agency requirements) if offered a place at the JBS MBA program.
