Most Helpful

Definitely not going to be seen as a 2.8. I’m going to say it’ll be looked upon like a B+ (3.33 GPA). If I’m not mistaken most UK universities want a 2:1 minimum which converts to a range of 3-3.33 GPA. Either way I think you should good, brand names on the resume definitely play in your favor. I think some might say your GMAT could be a little low but I think it’ll be made up by the rest of these things:

-Languages: I assume you’re Italian. In that case do you know a third language? Definitely helpful to set yourself apart from the myriad of Bocconi kids -Post MBA goals: essays are key in explaining what LBS can help you achieve, make sure you point to tangible things (“I saw a third of the class went to McKinsey last year so that’s exactly why I think LBS is the best fit/speaking to current students and alumni etc etc”) -Another thing, which I’ve actually heard more be an issue to US unis but if you have an MFIN, be prepared to explain why you also want an MBA. You also have a CFA so be prepared to know exactly what an LBS MBA can add.

Best of luck man, if you have any other questions feel free to ask
