In the interview, expect questions like "Why did you choose to apply to this LBS master's programme?" and "Why is London Business School the best place for you to develop professionally and personally?" ​. They'll also want to know about your career aspirations, so be ready for "What do you plan to do after graduating, and how does the LBS master's fit in with your career plans?".

Additionally, they might explore your personal experiences with questions such as "Think about all your experiences so far—is there anything not mentioned on your essays or CV that you would like to share with us?" . It's also common to discuss your understanding of current business issues, so be prepared to talk about recent events and how they might impact your future industry.

Remember, the interview is not just about assessing your fit for LBS, but also an opportunity for you to learn more about the school. So, come prepared with thoughtful questions to ask your interviewer.

If you're preparing for the LBS MIM interview, you should know it's designed to understand your goals, your personality, and how well you fit into their program. It’s not just about academics—LBS wants to know your story.

One common question is, “Why LBS?” They want to hear why you picked this school and how you think it will help your career. Another question is usually about your career plans—like “What do you want to do after the MiM, and how will this program help?” So, it’s good to be clear about your goals.

They may also ask you about your past experiences—like a challenge you faced, a team project you were part of, or something not already mentioned in your CV. This helps them understand your mindset and how you solve problems.

Just be honest and keep your answers simple. Speak about your goals, share your real experiences, and show that you’ve thought seriously about why LBS is the right place for you. That’s what matters most in the interview.
