Is my experience a hindrance in joining IB??

Hello people. I am looking to break into IB and i would like some opinions if i am going to have problems because of my experience. I graduated with a BBA from a non-target uni.I then worked in my family's agro business for 1 year handling heavy equipment.I got a master in logistics and i have been working for 2 years in a company.I decided to leave because i find the job really boring.I am looking for an MBA at lbs probably i took the GMAT and scored 750. I want to do the MBA solely for getting a job in IB,what do you guys think?

I'm not an expert, but from the fuckers I spoke to, yes. Unless u can get into a M7 MBA or something--and then network really well, its going to be a big fucking problem. those bastards are stupid and elitist, don't want some factory supervisor working for them.

that being said, if you are willing to lie, things can change. If you can maybe take a financial position at your shit family trucking business, and are willing to really bend the truth about the shit work u did--and then, if you can get into a M7--then yes this trucker fucker can get into IB
