A lil worried about my profile. Guess my experience is on the lower side given the large number of Indian applicants. Any idea about the number of open positions in R3?

You got a high GMAT score. You must be pretty stoked. I don't know anybody else that applied round 3 but I don't know a whole lot of people who may have applied.

Also applied in R3, counting the minutes. Anyone nows the kind of questions asked in the interview? Any previous applicant willing to share?

No idea but I imagine it's case-by-case dependent. Would you mind posting your profile?

Ash, I only applied to LBS. I'm interested in a particular adjustment to my skill sets that LBS offers. How about you?

I'm applying to R4. My profile: 26F/710/3.3 from top U.S. undergrad Bschool/3 WE/ CFA Level II candidate

I submitted my resume for Peter to review and he strongly encouraged me to apply, assuring me that he only encourages 30% of pple who submit their resumes to apply. I do think he says that to pretty much anyone though. In any case, I don't have particularly high hopes for admission. GPA is kinda low (I did bring it to Peter's attn. since it falls short of the 3.5 requirement but he said the AdCom does look at other aspects of the application). WE includes experience in IB, HF and corporate finance so I hope that strengthens my case somewhat and I really really want to get into this program since my career goal is to work in portfolio mgt. and return to Asia.

I plan to apply to MBA courses for Sep 2011 intake. LBS MS Fin was a last minute decision and I have'nt applied anywhere else. I thought i'll just give it a shot. I plan to get into buy-side asset management.

Are the interview decisions usually mailed out on the day of the deadline? Any idea?

My Profile : 27M, GMAT 760, 3 Years experince, one in B-Side Equity Research + 2 in PE. CFA Level II candidate.
based on what I´ve read, they send e-mail with interview decisions on the scheduled day, maybe on the night before.

Another R3 applicant here.

It's now 7AM in London, just hours to go.

Anyone know what percentage of interviewed applicants have been admitted the previous years?

I sure hope they won't wait until the evening. From what I've read, the adcom meets on Thursdays, so now it's just a matter of sending out the emails.
