    No, it won't. Rather, you can take advantage of being mature and firm in your candidature. There are many students who complete their graduation and then do a Job for 2-3 years and then do an MBA. Hence that age gap or being 25 or 28 will matter less, if you are a good learner and possible employee.

    There are many people who start their MBA at 24 or 25, hence it is pretty common. And, if you have good work experience, then you can leverage it by getting shortlisted for good companies. There might be some companies who prefer selecting only fresher and/or those having less than 2 years of work-ex. But there are also companies which value one's prior experience a lot, so lay more emphasis on them.
