Odd - mine has said between an hour and 90 minutes.

Would take it as a good sign that she thinks there's lots to speak about?

My interviewer was very specific - 1.5 hours. Not even a range. Seems like it is going to be very structured. Getting a little nervous. :roll:

FROM LBS Current Students Blog: Academics & People
There are many facets to pursuing an MBA. Juggling with your precious time is one of the most important one. This picture sort of shows the challenges you will face! An improved version of the one you’ve probably already seen ;-).



Next week I’ll be writing about the sports and fun aspect, but let’s now focus on the academics of an MBA.

Not taking the pre-term into account, you will follow six core courses before Christmas of which five run regularly every week. The last one is the Leadership Launch, about which you’ll find lots of information on the LBS website (Leadership Launch). Five courses of 2:45 h, including a well-deserved break of 15 min, means only a small 14 h of classes each week. So, plenty of time for your other obligations mentioned above, I hear you think ;-).



Catch up with courses via the tutorials

Every week there are tutorials for those who are struggling with a core course such as Corporate Finance or Financial Accounting. It is a good way for you to ask questions, go over a certain exercise again with a tutor and use crowd-sourcing to discuss your insights. I must say, every professor up till now has been very open to receive direct questions. Even the more advanced students that have follow-up questions are welcome to discuss those with the faculty.

Execute pre-readings and home-works, often with your study group

In order to have an interesting class discussion, some courses require pre-work. Be sure you will develop your fast reading skills to cope with this. Various courses require solving cases or problems with your study group, knowing LBS puts a lot of effort in developing this mentality. All study groups represent a perfect mix in terms of geographies, background, languages, interests and future aspirations – Don’t ask me how they manage this. This leads to challenging discussions and working together.

Midterms

Two weeks ago we had our second and third mid-term exam combined with a break week. This allows you enough time to revise your study material and even some time for travelling. Many people went home for a week, other took the opportunity to do day-trips around the UK or fly towards a European city. Various tutorial sessions are organized by the school and even students organize sessions for fellow students to help out.

Electives bidding

We have just passed our two first rounds with the new electives bidding system to choose up to five electives to complement core courses in Term 2 and 3. Thanks to my genius bidding strategy I got into my preferred three classes :- )! Looking forward to these electives next term as class discussions will become even more valuable during these courses.

https://www.london.edu/programmes/mba/programmedetails/electives.html

You see, in the end when I talk about the academics, you actually talk about crowd-sourcing, available professors, strong study groups and interesting class discussions. People, people, people.. It is obvious; it’s all about the people and be assured that you will be shaped by the people around you. This is why you need to choose your school wisely and LBS served me well up to this point ;-)!

Has someone NOT received any details for his/her interview ?

I am starting to be a bit concerned as there are only 9 days left. I sent an email today but it still worries me.

That is starting to get tight on arranging and holding interview etc now. Maybe worth phoning Greg to see if he has an update?

G is in India right now for an event so some delay is expected. I sent an email to A with G in cc and I am still waiting for an answer. If I have not got any news at the end of the day I will call the AdOff.

Interview was ok. Very relaxed interviewer. the 5 min presentation is relatively straight forward. don't be stressed and you can't really prepare for it. it was the usual questions of why lbs, working in team etc etc.....mine went for 1 hr.
