Hi All,

I've been doing my research on bschools to apply to, and intend to apply to LBS. But since we can apply to only select few bschools coz of money constraints, we have to judge our chances at these bschools.

My query is that how were u all able to judge that u might stand a chance at LBS? I initially ruled out LBS/H/S/W completely as out of my league. But I now question this decision.

Can anyone give his opinions?

Thanks a ton,
rish

Hi guys,

Does any body have an idea as to when would the application form be available on site? The website is still saying that the application will be available by mid-September, which has already passed. Round 1 deadline is so close now.
