Hello,

an audit background with a GPA of 3.3 is a weak starting point for LBS MAM. The program is competitive and prefers applicants with stronger quantitative and academic performance.

Without a GMAT, your application is incomplete.

If you want to move into finance and tech roles, you need to demonstrate technical aptitude beyond audit, either through analytics coursework or strong test scores.

Right now, your profile does not stand out, and you risk being filtered out at LBS. Consider adding safer programs like ESSEC or Imperial, and absolutely prioritize a solid GMAT/GRE.
