Guys any body has insights on the presentation that is part of the interview.. meaning is it a case study ( which has most relevant details mentioned) upon which one expresses one's views / thoughts or is it merely an open ended topic?

Well in my case, I was admitted at Booth and LBS. It is a tough decision to make. Both of them are great schools.

My post career objectives are to work in London / Europe / Middle East so I tend to think that LBS is the better choice. But Booth has a such strong momentum in its history and the better brand internationally (?).

What do you think guys?


In terms of Finance, Booth has a great reputation in London. There are tons of Booth grads in all the major banks in the City and Booth has an EMBA campus in London.

I'm sure in London, you'll be fine for your school's brand name status with other schools. For other areas of the globe, it's probably different, but if you want to stay in London predominently, I think both will have equal brand name status in general

For others who were invited to interview, we are just supposed to wait until we're contacted again by the admissions office or interviewer right? That's how I read the email, but just want to make sure I'm not supposed to reach out to my regional representative to get the interview set up.

Can anybody shed some light on their interview experience? Particularly the "topic sharing" portion where they give you a topic on which you have to share your opinion. A current student told me they give you a topic, you have a few minutes to prepare, and then must share your opinion regarding the same in a concise and effective manner. Can somebody elaborate on that specifically?

Yes, in my case it didn't take to long. I have already heard back today with the contact details of my interviewer. Good luck to all!

Yes, just wait for your regional repreentative to reach out to you with the interviewer details. It generally takes upto a 7-10 days. If you dont hear back until then, there is no harm in reaching out to your representative.

Hi guys and girls,

If you are an LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) applicant to London Business School, please feel free to reach out to the "Out in Business" club members (clubs.london.edu/oib/contact-us/).

LBS is all about diversity and if you have any questions on what it's like to be an LGBT MBA student, one of us would be happy to talk to you and address any questions/concerns you might have.

Best,
Out in Business Club
