Hey everyone,
I recently applied to LBS. I have had my alumni interview.
A member of the senior admissions team reached out to schedule another interview to discuss my application. They mentioned that the call with will focus primarily around my goals for the programme.
As I understand, not many candidates receive an extra interview as part of their application, any insights would be great if anyone has had similar instances. Thanks for your help
airtightjaguarthey must really like your profile.
There could be two possibilities. There may be two possibilities, either the admissions committee is trying to double-check how the LBS program can help you achieve your goals (in case they feel you are good even without it), in other words, justifying the need for an MBA, or they are seeking more clarity on whether you have a clear understanding of the practicality of your goals. I suggest you think through both the scenarios.
Best wishes
