Thanks! Good luck with your application.

I will be applying for the 2nd Round.

I fear my 7.51 CGPA might be too low. I hope my 24 months of work experience counters it though.

Hey wanted to know if i am eligible for this course i.e LBS MiM as I have work-ex of exactly 24 months. Am I eligible for this course? should I apply?

Hi. I just added a table with the MiM Stats of the applicants into the First Post Above. You can see this years's applicants above. You can also take a look at the last 2 years of the applicants in the Decision Tracker by using filters and filtering the LBS MiM Program and research stats for people who got it. Here is a link:

(the work experience is in Months) so 24 months does not seem to be an issue...

Hey WallCol, well UK schools are pretty stringent about academics, but a 7.51 is not a deal-breaker. It can be compensated for by highlighting stronger elements of your profile. Also, LBS places a lot of emphasis on international experience so in case you have any cross cultural experience, it will be helpful.

You can check out the case study of one of our clients who had a comparatively weak profile for LBS, but he managed to get through by highlightinh the right strengths.
Science Student Struggling to make a connect in Business
Background: Bachelors in Science from a US college

Problem: No connection to business, Low GMAT

GMAT: 620

Overview: Our client was from S.E Asia, and had come over to the US 4 years back and done her undergrad in a niche sciences field, now she wanted to make a switch to business. But with prior interest and experience shown only in a very niche factory environment and a low GMAT, showcasing to schools why she would be a good fit for a top MiM school was looking difficult.

Our Strategy: After brainstorming for 2 hours, some interesting elements of her profile began to emerge. We discovered the reason for her interest in the niche sciences field was connected with the aim of discovering means to improve the standard of life in her home country, and she was slowly moving towards this goal and even had an idea of a start-up. We capitalized on this to showcase her interest in business and give it a strong backing.

Further, she was actively involved in several extra-curricular activities from NGO’s to student bodies, & had spearheaded some activities in the same, via this, we showcased her strong leadership and team skills. Lastly, we concentrated on how she was able to showcase management aptitude even while working in a core engineering company, by highlighting in depth the kind of activities she did, going above and beyond her work responsibilities.

Result: A glowing admit from LBS
