The professional advancement is huge, and the experience of London Business School is outstanding both inside and outside the classroom. This is a complete life-changing period, a definitive right decision. -- Marketing

Excellent Finance faculty and a strong reputation amongst banking and finance companies. -- Finance

Having done an exchange at another prestigious school and having compared strengths and weaknesses I feel I would recommend LBS to a colleague. -- Finance

s

It's an ideal school for international students. The school community is engaging and although it is a top ranked school, it doesn't stink of arrogance. -- Finance

Academically rigorous, internationally diverse, excellent location, some very good faculty. Provides access to a host of opportunities that one may not have considered before. -- Investment Banking

Enormous opportunities. -- Finance

The MBA program has had a very positive impact on most of our lives. The LBS MBA truly stands out in its diversity - I would have never been exposed to so many different views and cultures if I hadn't attended LBS. In a globalizing world I think this is an invaluable experience. -- Consulting
