LBS （London Business School）不参与Times排名，但在商学和管理学领域颇具领导地位，当然学费也贵得要死。个别网站上在总结商科申请时是把LBS的介绍放在G5之前的。作为伦敦大学下属的一所研究生学院，LBS专门招收金融和管理学方向的研究生课程，并且特别青睐有工作经验的学生。（据说这个学校的计算机网络系统比较强大，学生们能够随意浏览欧洲最大的商学院图书馆）LBS 每年会招收180名学生左右，能拿到录取的多为本土学生，美本，澳本和香港本科的学生，而且会有面试。
下面跟大家分享一个申请LBS失败的案例，中意LBS的童鞋请看过来~
学生985院校会计学专业，GPA：3.75/4.0, ACCA已考过11门，寒暑假期间有在各大会计师事务所（麦格理，德勤，中恒信会计师事务所，安永）实习的经历；IELTS: 7.5，GMAT：710；申请LBS- MiM (Master in Management) 专业。如此强大的背景，学生在“海选”阶段就败下阵来。个人觉着失败的主要原因在于工作经验不足（至少1-2年的工作经验）
这个学校的申请不需要常规的PS，但是有各种各样的Essays （3或4个问题，每个问题的回答字数限定在300-500字）和开放性问题需要回答；简历需要按照LBS提供的模板，需要GMAT，推荐信网推（网推过程中也是各种回答开放性问题）和90英镑申请费。
