Why did you not opt for an MBA after a few years of experience rather than pursuing an MIM?

[@richajain2316]

Hi Claudia...! Firstly love this video, very informative. Can you pls guide regarding the scholarships for MAM. And what are the job prospects after this course? Thanks in advance.....!! ♥️♥️

Hey, I've a doubt regarding these college extra curricular participation, like if I was a part of these societies and stuff, cn I just mention it and my experience abt it or do we need to have something as a proof of it? 😂 this sounds a bit silly but I'm just curious about it please let me know?

[@unboxinglife6658]

Hey Anne, looking at their career section, its seen that most of the members get placed within 3 months of graduation .so is it really worth risk taking? And do all people who get job have to compulsory work in london?

[@yewut]

15:40 housing is very relevant thank you

[@Techion]

well my college was established by the british to teach their kids when india was a colony, so i guess that might help ;)

[@sayantanroy9946]

Hii Claudi, really informative and nice video. I had a question , I study in Slovakia and when I convert my university GPA to UK system its below upper 2.1. Which is below LBS criteria. I have lot of extracurricular, Humanitarian works and intership. And some national level leadership positions. Do you think it would be good Idea to apply to LBS? As the admission team said due to the GPA my application will be in a disadvantage from beginning.

[@cloudsjoo]

Hello Sayantan. If the admissions team said that your GPA will be a disadvantage, I would advise taking that into consideration. If LBS truly is the school you want to go to, then by all means still apply if you think your extra-curriculars can make up for the grades. I would just always have in mind that because the GPA is below the required criteria, the chances are lower. Good luck to you irrespectively!

Hi Claudia! I would love to see you make a comparison video, between LBS, LSE and Imperial. Also I am someone looking for a HR focused job. Would it be better for me to do an MIM or a masters in HRM? Asking this because in your previous video you mentioned that you too wanted to do consultancy in HR. Loads of love from India 😊

[@cloudsjoo]

Hello Kavya. If you are 100% sure you want to undertake a career within HR in the long-run, I would recommend doing a specialised masters because it will be a lot more relevant to your work and will provide more value to your profile within the HR department. However, I personally think that it is hard to predict where we will be in the long-term future, say 5-10 years from now, which is why a more general masters might be a safer investment. A masters in management will be relevant in a multitude of fields whilst doesn't provide much specialisation. A masters in HRM only focuses on one field, but provides deep specialisation. It all depends on where you see your career trajectory going towards.

Based on what qualifications a prospective student gets maximum amount from scholarships???

[@cloudsjoo]

LBS does not disclose this I believe, but its roughly based on how much potential that student has to enhance the LBS community

[@ramswaroop6318]

@@cloudsjoo Thank you. People like you are inspiration to the prospective students.☺️

Is LBS for post graduate or for undergraduate courses too?

LBS is only a postgraduate school

How did you find the Job availability after you graduated?

[@cloudsjoo]

Hello Akhil. I only graduated this week, so in that sense I can't give you much insight into the job market in the future, but I found that there have definitely been hiring freezes and cutbacks these past few months due to the covid-19 situation. It is very unfortunate, but at the same time there are still opportunities out there!

Heyy Zhu . I am currently pursuing my bachelor's in business . And It has always been my Goal to do Masters in Business as well. If u don't mind can you please share how your past academic affects the selection process. ( Soo I have had few hiccups in my academic background . I used to hangout with not soo good group of students 😬 to pull it mildly. But past is past I can't change it. But on the bright side I have really worked hard since then. ) Soo just wants to know how that could affect my chances of being selected. Thank you 😌. Congrats and best of luck for the Future girl 🥳🎊.

[@cloudsjoo]

Hello Hasan. I would say that your grades in university matter as there is a minimum GPA requirement, however your grades before this (such as high school) do not have a high weightage on your application. If you are referring to bad academic profile before university it should be fine as long as you still have strong cases in other aspects of your application.

How did you get excused from doing the GMAT?

[@cloudsjoo]

you can apply for a waiver but they are very very rare and selective

[@kflow4491]

@@cloudsjoo when applying for one what type of things should we include in our application? I decided to do a Masters late so only have a month or so to send in my application and if I don’t receive a waiver to revise and take the GMAT. So I just want to see what’s the best thing for me to say to help plead my case
