Hmm, I see. Hopefully, addressing Q47 will not hurt me and it can show that I have thought about my weaknesses on the application.

HELP! I need to know whether I need to send my GMAT score to LBS, or whether just uploading the official test taker copy with my application is enough? I've already submitted my app just now, and would really appreciate if someone could let me know ASAP before tomorrow's deadline. Thank you

You will need to send the scores i believe, i'd asked an Adcom about this a few months ago. Use the school code and the send the score through GMAC. Although maybe deadlines don't count since you have uploaded an actual report.

Does anyone know if they offer extensions on the reccomender deadlines? My recommender is being a little unresponsive after the holidays, and I'm not sure if he'll get it in by noon tomorrow.

Reach out to someone from the ADCOM, they usually give you a week after the deadline but you will need them to make a note on your file.

Looks like their office is closed today, I'll try reaching out again tomorrow though.

What is the best way to answer: "Which other schools have you applied to?" Is there any recommendation when answering this one? If you know any London Business School Alumni or Students, please give their names, graduating class and tell us how you know them. (300 words max) I know way too many people from LBS.

When it comes to knowing a large number of people, maybe pick the ones which whom you have the best relationship. The adcom might reach out to 1-2 of them in case of questions

Hi sancre16 , regarding the best way to answer " Which other schools have you applied to? ", schools claim that this info is not used for admissions purposes, but for statistical purposes (e.g. in order to know which schools they're competing against). But, in any case, if you have applied to other schools, try to select those who share some similarities with LBS and ideally are similar or lower-ranked. For example, if in your application you talk about LBS' location in Europe as one of the reasons you're applying to LBS, selecting a US school would look kind of strange. If you haven't applied to any other schools, simply be honest and check "No" in " Have you applied to other business schools? ". I hope this helps. Thank you very much. Warm regards Alex
