London Business School Class of 2016 Calling all applicants!

Thanks

Anyone going for round 4?

Has anyone else received an email regarding 'invitation only' event on 25th March?
Any thought?

Not yet - I think that means you're in though!

I like the sound of it but till they send that one holy email - nothing is confirmed !

Anyone who knows how it goes? Will we get a phone or a mail on the very last day, or do people get news earlier then that as well?

As per this thread, R1 folks started getting emails couple of days before the date.

Just got the save the date email for the NYC admits event.... I assume they send this to everyone they interviewed?

My best guess is that it's sent only to admits. A RD1 admit dinner in Boston included ONLY admits.

I'm a RD 2 applicant but was able to attend the RD 1 admits dinner (Boston). It was held about a week after the notification deadline and I can only assume that the admits were notified of the dinner in advance of the official admit notification. <1 week seems insufficient for planning purposes. The dinner itself included 4 admits, the regional recruitment manager, a current student, and 2-3 alumni (and me).

I received the same email. Not sure what it means but I'm guessing it's sent to all who interviewed. Would love to hear from anyone who has more knowledge of this.

I was interviewed in SF and no email for me. @dbnoho- Hw did u attend dinner when you are R2 applicant? Thx

@ankurb- who is your regional manager?

I know a current student, who connected me with some members of the admissions team. I was invited to the dinner instead of meeting my admissions rep for coffee or whatever, likely because inviting me saved her the effort of a one-on-one meeting.

I interviewed R2 but did not get a dinner invite

Where did you interview?

Interviewed in RD2 -on campus, got the invite to the exclusive masterclass on the 25th but no placeholder for the Admit dinner although the initial email from my regional manager mentioned the date in her email. Somehow, I don't think either of these mean anything until the final decision is out.

While I am here, here's the round up from the interview, lasted around 3 hours:
- Why LBS
- Why MBA
- What I love about London
- What I love about my job
- How do I manage stress
- How do I select my teams? How do I convince someone to be part of my team
- What's my leadership style
- Has anyone ever let me down? What's my biggest accomplishment? Have I ever failed anyone?
- Industry trends in my profession, what are the biggest opportunities/ threats for my firm
- My post MBA plans include starting my own business so we discussed my vision for the business, the scaleability of the proposition
- What will I bring to the LBS community
- How did I go about choosing the programs I applied to
Presentation was brief and the topic was pre-selected. I didn't know much about the topic but tried to follow a structure, the interviewer didn't ask any follow on questions.
We ended the interview with talking about the interviewer's background and some questions I had. I think I might have rambled a bit for some answers but the ones where I was concise, there were follow on questions.
Hope this helps anyone who is still waiting to be interviewed.
