Hey! I'm thinking of applying to the LBS (I would like a Masters in management) and was wondering what are my chances of getting in?
I come from SciencesPo Paris, which is a very well respected university in France and is not easy getting in (students who go to SciencesPo typically also get accepted into universities such as LSE, Cornell, UCL, and Georgetown). My GMAT isn't incredible (about 3,7), but I did a couple of interesting internships and am currently doing an exchange at the University of Hong Kong where I think I could get a 4.0 for the semester. I also speak 4 languages and have three nationalities. I haven't done my GMAT yet and am doing it soon. If I get a really good score on my GMAT, what are my chances of getting into the LBS?

Hi charlipontevia

A 3.7 GPA isn't bad at all, and SciencesPo is well known. What domain have your internships been in and what are your post-MiM goals?

Broadly, given the parameters you have shared so far, if you get a decent GMAT score, you should be a fit with the LBS MiM.

I did an internship in a financial bank and in corporate law at a law firm (they both really liked me and offered to write my a recommendation letter). (one every summer- Im 20). I'm applying to top consulting firms for summer 2023. I was also very involved in important clubs at my uni (eloquence club- hard to get in, official newspaper, etc.) I was thinking of applying to the Global Masters Management.

You can aspire for consulting given your background. The clubs seem good, though you will be judged more on what you did than on how difficult they were to get into, but you probably already know that.

On the global MiM v/s the regular one - that is your choice. The global one can be good if you are looking for Asian (Shanghai) exposure.

Overall, with a decent GMAT (680+), you should have a good shot.

I am an LBS EMBA alumni , My suggestion is first
1. Be confident in yourself , Gmat is one if the many criterias but not the main criteria .
2. I sometime work as a mentor for MAM and MIM students , thir background matters more in application than only GMAT score .
3. Follow london.edu for official networking events of LBS best is to target networking around bench events .
4. Admission team is very helpful and you can connect with them.
5. Don't come in trap of any third party to loose your money.

Enjoy and Good luck , I think this may be helpful.
