I can comment on the few of the fundamental expectations. The school looks for candidates who have leadership potential, demonstrate evidence of being a team player, have strong communication skills and possess high level of emotional intelligence.

I've added an application tracker of this program in the first post. Let's see if there are any applicants around who are applying to GMBA finance.

I interviewed last week and it was very usual interview Qs including what was your aspiration to pursue the MBA, what are you gonna do after the MBA(the more specific the better) and some out of your essays.

Firstly Congrats on MBS admit! I am not aware of any https://gmatclub.com/chat group but perhaps it would make sense to start a separate thread for MBS admits where admits can network, discuss next steps, form a https://gmatclub.com/chat group and share its link in the first post, etc. Post the following code in the thread to display admit roll call.

Hello forum mods & members,

I wished to know that whether it's essential to sumbit TOEFL/IELTS score along with the application?

I am unable to find an available slot before the 5th Dec, 2019 deadline. I wished to understand if one could submit the score by the end of 2nd week of December.

Hi

I submitted my complete application (references, kira assessment, etc.) to MBS by November 17. I still haven't heard back. The official timeline stated in MBS' website is 31st Jan, 2020 for applications submitted by the 4th deadline. Any idea how long it takes to hear from the school as to whether I am shortlisted for the interview or not?

They only start to review and send out interview invitation after deadline. Most of UK schools are like this, based on deadline, not rolling Admissions like in US or France, etc. They want to wait for all applications and review them all together.

That's bad. The R4 application deadline is Dec 5th. I am not sure if they go on a break for the holiday season. I am hoping to at least complete my personal interview (if shortlisted) by the first week of Jan.

Hi guys. I dropped in the application in R4 (5 Dec, Kira deadline 16 Dec). I have to reply to other schools by latest 2 Jan. The guys who have been admitted, could you let me know the timeline of when you heard back from the school with invitation for skype interview and how quick was AMBS to roll out the final decision? Thanks!
