LSE admissions

Hey I was wondering what the admissions were like for the LSE Masters of Economics. It says on the website that you need a 2:1 at least to meet the entry requirements.
It doesnt specify on exact GPA, I'm not going to have a problem obtaining a 2:1 but I was wondering what else they may be looking for in potential students (internships, extra curricular activities etc).
Could anyone with some experience in applying to post grad help me out thanks
