Hi. I am Rahul. I have recently taken GMAT and got 720. I already have an MBA from not so reputed govt.college in India. Some schools in US such as DARDEN, TUCK, and HAAS have a clear policy to not admit people with MBA degree already. The other schools in US say that one needs to justify second MBA but some people say that though these schools say that they admit people with MBA, in practice they don't consider those applicants. Is this true? Should I not apply for 2 year MBA programs of US? Can someone throw some light on this please.

In part, you already know the answer.
Yes, they are always reluctant to admit MBA holders. Certain b-schools say, when asked, that you should apply and must justify the need for another MBA. As it is already known, indians have a slim chance at top US b schools( to put words into perspective, out of 800 Harvard grads only 40 are indians).
So in such competition, having an MBA may deter your chances.
Yet, what's done is done. Try to aim for College which has lower mean GMAT(680) and submit decent LORs.
This is a very realistic answer and in no way I want to disappoint you.
PS:- I work for kudos.

Hi mrahul,
Thank you for your post. Since I do not know your background, my answer will be a bit generic. Indeed, b-schools want to offer admission to those that don't already hold a degree and need an MBA for their career progression. However, admission is possible in instances where your current MBA does not help with your career trajectory. Why do you need a second MBA? Why do you need a two year MBA? Why now?
Happy to continue this conversation offline. If interested, please reach out.
Good luck!
Susan
