Congratulations to everyone who have also got admitted. I look forward to seeing you in London!

For the waitlisters, you must get in touch with bsd_lover. He is the poster boy of LBS waitlisters on GC and is probably one of the most helpful guys around (realized it after reading LBS threads of the past 2 years and took some advice too under another login name myself sometime back).

For people who have got dinged, I truly believe, if you are efforts are honest and if a school does not admit you, its just a mismatch of likes and dislikes from both sides. That essentially means you will find your destiny somewhere else, which might turn out the best for you.

This whole experience has really humbled me and I really want to thank this forum for helping me out so much all along!! :)

I have a question regarding referees for LBS - they say they require one from your current supervisor/peer/client.

I currently work in a family business that deals with high net-worth clients that are very sensitive about their confidentiality. As such, seeking a reference from a supervisor, peer or client would not be appropriate or possible. Would it be acceptable to provides references from my direct supervisors at two of my previous employment positions?

Should I send an email to LBS MBA Admissions about this to confirm?

Guys and gals congratulations to those admitted and sorry for you poor souls dinged out tonight. My biggest sympathies go to the waitlisters who will endure perhaps the most excruciating waits of their lives. As Bluedreamer mentioned earlier, I too was waitlisted for the class of 2010 and only made it into the class of 2011. I have posted tons of waitlist advice on past threads. The links are here :
My debrief : gmat-club-opens-account-for-70065.html#p516870
Some advice to others for WL :
the-london-business-school-2010-thread-78838-320.html#p655074
the-london-business-school-2010-thread-78838-380.html#p663720
the-london-business-school-2010-thread-78838-1100.html#p705568

Please read those, I hope it helps and good luck. Unfortunately, due to a hectic class schedule and upcoming exchange I will not be able to answer individual pms in the next few weeks.
