Sorry for such a late reply, I didn't came across this thread initially.

With a score of 680 you can apply to the top business schools in Europe. ESCP Europe, HEC Paris, CEMS, EM LYON, Universitt St.Gallen, LSE, ESSEC, EDHEC. These are the best ones for Masters in Management in Europe.

720+ GMAT is needed for top french B schools (HEC, EM LYON, ESSEC ,etc). Though you might have chance if you can a very good interview with good a SOP.
St Gallen doesn't take people from engineering background.
For LSE you again need 700+ GMAT and high GPA.

Best options for you will be to try in LBS (heard their course is not good), Cass, Rotterdam, Imperial(GMAT not required).

I am not sure where did you get that information from but when I got into EM LYON I had a GMAT score of 640. And Obviously a good SOP and interview is always required even with a high score. And I had applied into HEC, ESCP-EAP, EM LYON, Audencia, ESSEC and I got into each one of them except HEC. And I chose EM LYON for my own reasons. Obviously with a low score the chances of scholarship reduces but if you have an amazing SOP and they like you in the interview then you are good to go!

I'm not denying you cant get in with a lower score. Admission in most good schools are based on your scores, recommendations, SOP and interview. Each of these factors can compensate the other if need be.

I have an admit for Msc Management from Cass. I was wondering whether the course is worth the time and money given the economic situation across Europe + new PSW policies. Though I have got +ve reviews about the course but I am still skeptical about the employability boost the course would provide. Also, any idea about the reputation of such a course back here in India -- do people find job-roles of ,say, Business Analyst, etc in India after such courses ?Moreover, I want to do an MBA eventually, so would doing an MSc Management be a right career move?

GMAT - 700
Work-ex - 2yrs by June 2012, Indian/IT/Male
Acads - average
Extra-curriculars - good

Hi everyone

I am currently doing Bcom Hons from Lady Shri Ram college, New delhi. i got 650 on gmat. My college average score is 76%(distinction). i got 94.5% in 12th (cbse board) and 94.25% in 10th(icse board). i am planning to apply for Msc Management 2013 in LSE,LBS and cass. do you think i have a chance with this gmat score? or should i give a reattempt again in jan?

@AashnaS As I recently visited QS MBA fair in New Delhi, I met many counsellers. They all said one thing - We don't take people based on their academics only, you may have distinctions all over, that's not good enough, we give more stress on Sop, experience and the attitude. A minimum of 610 is required. Remember in good universities 660 is considered good, but the range is 580-700. In european schools this range is low, due to post MBA Visa problems.

You should definitely go for it! As this is MIM not MBA you qualify as a good candidate.

@AashnaS Hi. GMAT alone is not the critera as correctly pointed by itskunal.
I recently had my Grande Ecole Program's Interview (HEC Paris). Even though I had a decent score, 710, and my acads were fine but I felt my interview was bad and my Recommendations could have been better. Did not make it, thus.
Good luck to you!

Dear All,


First of all congratulations to those, who have scores well in GMAT. I would like to agree with the note that most of the b-schools will prefer to have over 700 GMAT score, but minimum requirement usually is less, because GMAT is only one part of the requirement and the school, such like ours Frankfurt School of Finance and Management, will focus on the other factors as well, like other scores, rewards, achievements, recommendations. interview et cetera.

For those students, who are willing to get scholarship, scores of course need to be quite high. In case if student was slightly unlucky with his GMAT, some of the schools will offer their own admission test like our FSAT, which is being conducted in India too. So, those, who feel like they did not score well in GMAT, could explore the possibilities to go through school's admission test. In this case you have the chance to score well in writing part and have interview with school representatives directly.

In any case, do not panic, and try to see how to cover the lower GMAT score with something else you may be great at.

Wishing all of you best of luck!

Bumping this thread again, for the benefit of MiM applicants. 

Masters in Management programs are excellent alternatives to an MBA for people who wish to gain management education right after their bachelor's. These programs are designed for applicants with little or no work experience, and offer participants the chance to gain strong business education, business exposure, and leadership skills right at the onset of their career. The value proposition of the programs is strong, and most applicants will end up on a fast-track career growth trajectory, much like that of graduates from top MBA programs. The Masters in Management program is still almost exclusively a non-U.S. phenomenon, with the best programs in Europe, Canada, and Asia.

For long, a Masters in Management was considered as a precursor to the MBA - business education at the Master's level that set one up for a career in business without really offering the same level of intensity or preparation that an MBA does. This is a myth, and a Masters in Management or MSc in Management (as it is known at some universities) can often be a strong substitute for an MBA. A majority of Masters in Management graduates treat the program as their terminal degree. And why should they not? After all, Masters in Management courses have proved their utility and value year after year across geographies, industries, and job functions.
