Hi Monir,

Candidates have varied backgrounds and diverse experiences before entering business school, and MBA programs are normally quite open to a variety of business experiences. Please clarify what you mean by shared business experience so we can guide you further.

Monir,
If it was full-time work experience, I don't see why not. MBA candidates come from a variety of backgrounds, and develop a multitude of skills along the way. If positioned well, your share business experience, or "trading on the stock market floor" as they say in the US, could be used well to show multiple soft and quantitative skills that would be useful for an application to business school.
