Evaluation Request for MiM at LBS 23 Aug 2024, 11:15

Hey everyone. I was wondering if I could get some insights on my profile and my chances for admission into the MiM program at LBS. I’m a young woman from Pakistan, entering my fourth and final year of undergrad. My cgpa is currently 3.66/4 and I’ve been on the Dean’s List for the past two years. My degree is a joint one: BSc Sociology-Anthropology (Hons) from LUMS. It is the best private university in Pakistan. In fact, the only couple of individuals who have gone to LBS in the past are either from LUMS or one other university (IBA). I have numerous internships, my first one was as an HR intern at an IT Consulting company with offices abroad as well. My second one was at KIKO Milano (an Italian makeup company) where I worked as a marketing intern. I have also worked at a foreign startup in Belgium as a marketing intern. For the past 3-4 months I am working as a part time Marketing Specialist at a startup based in England. I have served as a teaching assistant at my university, and have now been selected as a career peer tutor at my university’s career services office. Over the summer I also conducted a directed research project under supervision of one of our professors. I’ve done multiple courses/ certifications such as the McKinsey Forward Program, Foundations of Project Management by the PMI, and the Inside LVMH Certificate by LVMH group. I’m aiming for R1 admissions. However, GMAT is where I struggle. Realistically speaking, I may not be able to score above a 605 on the Focus. Should I still apply? I’m aware these universities are pretty selective and obviously GMAT score holds a lot of weightage. Thanks.

­Hi Noushie,

Your profile demonstrates a strong foundation for pursuing a MiM at LBS. Your academic achievements, diverse internships, and extracurricular involvement showcase your potential.

Your CGPA and LUMS degree indicate a strong academic background. Your internships in various sectors demonstrate your adaptability and interest in different fields. Your roles as a teaching assistant and career peer tutor highlight your leadership and commitment to helping others.

While your current score is respectable, clearly articulate your career aspirations and how a MiM from LBS will help you achieve them. Develop compelling essays, secure strong recommendations, and practice for interviews.

Given your profile, LBS remains a strong target. However, consider exploring other top-tier MiM programs in Europe and the US.

Hey, Noushie


Your GMAT FE score of 605 falls short of the usual range for the LBS MiM program, but your overall profile looks strong. However, adcoms make decisions by looking at all parts of your application. Applying in Round 1 might help; presenting your key experiences and aspirations will be crucial. But I'd still suggest you take the GMAT again and aim for around 700 to boost your chances of getting in. If you’d like to discuss your profile in detail, schedule a 1:1 session with our experts.
