People who got rejected- what do you think you were lacking? GMAT? Letter of reference? Essays?

I think Adcom has been a little tough on Indians this time...almost no Indians in my contact has been shortlisted

No i mean the indian demographic is completely different game… they would have a lot of 760 indians… non-indian gmat doesnt matter that much!

Harsh might be right though, they got a bad reputation last year for taking up a really bad indian crowd.

Not to neglect the fact that Indians for sure, in general, must have a higher GMAT, but to say that a non-indian GMAT does not matter is both unfair and untrue. In the end, your GMAT is essentially at maximum 20% of your application. This means that your GMAT is relative to everything else in your application, as for everyone - so there are a lot of things besides the GMAT, even if that is the “easy” thing to point out:)

I think a lot contributes to a good application guys

A top university
Top degree
Good gmat score
Good experience
Good achievements
Good essays
Future plans

That’s just my opinion

LST786, Sid231, are right on their opinion, many of the previous class sizes might be having 20-23 Indians alone, they might consider some truly exceptional students this time I guess for LBS as you all have discussed. Don’t lose hope guys a better school could be available if you have backup schools for 2023 intake.

You are right about GMAT not being the only factor. But, between two equal profiles in which one is an Indian adcom will probably pick the non-Indian profile as diversity factor counts

Anyways, this is not a "sour grapes" kind of discussion, just something which I observed, looking at the trend

Yes, I am so sorry if i came off rude or offensive, my intention was not to say that GMAT doesnt matter for non indians firstly.
I apologise to anyone whom I offended. I thoroughly believe that every aspect of the application and past experiences matter. And nobody from the previous years got in easily.

No worries, I was not offended at all, and there is some validity in your point!

Yes and I firmly believe getting into any one of these schools is extremely hard, and its very strict with all the factors mentioned by sid above! Be it any year or university! By no means, anything can undermine anyone’s efforts…

Guys, I didn’t read whole. But honestly. The best program doesn’t necessarily yield best results.

It’s all upon interest. B-schools are a different world on their own. Going just by reputation or flagship program might not always be beneficial.

Talk to alumni. Like really. Not just employment data and salary.

You need insights into school’s culture.

650 is competitive for ESSEC and UCL, but might be having a disadvantage in HEC

Nothing a good SOP can’t cover

Work on your rest profile
