On Dec 5th 2005, a couple of weeks before my interview, I joined a LBS official chat with students and people from the Admissions Office from LBS. Surprisingly, it is available online at 2006 London Business School MBA Admissions Chat with David Simpson. For the applicants out there, if you have the chance to join one of these chats, they end up being very informative, and you can make friends.

A unique opportunity to ask questions about the school, the experience and the application process, I also managed to make a good pen-pal (Hi Anna!) and future London classmate, and chatted with a few others.

This is probably one of the advantages of a small class, you can organize this chat without big crowds. Surely an event like this in a bigger School (W/H with their 1,000 class and 10k+ applicants) would result in an overcrowded chat and hundreds of nonsense lines.

Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience and a great initiative. And the transcript is now available for everyone to see!
