I am so sorry. Good job that you applied in first round. You can make it in the next round.

Looks like nobody with below 3.5 GPA is getting in this year especially from Asia. Sad to know when you could only do so much and could not travel back in time to mitigate a lower GPA even with a 800 GMAT score.

Does anyone have an idea how LBS will conduct the reference check? Via email or call? Just want to give a pre-notification for my recommenders. Thanks!

Same question here. Does anybody have an idea, whether LBS will conduct reference check through email or phone-call? And will LBS conduct other background checks(employment, salary, etc.) at the same time?
