Can I apply for LBS MIM without GMAT?

LBS requires all MiM applicants to submit a valid GMAT Focus Edition or GRE score—applying without one isn’t possible. These tests are used to assess your analytical and problem-solving skills, which are crucial for the academic rigor of the program.

While there’s no official GRE cutoff, a score above 315 (combined verbal and quant) is considered competitive based on trends from previously admitted candidates. That said, the admissions team looks at the full application—strong academics, solid internships, clear goals, and impactful essays can help offset a slightly lower score.
