Probably around that range, though a lot will depend on the strength of your narrative.

LBS is same

Same - as in similar

I know three people who got into LBS this year with 690 GMAT

All from consulting

No offense, just really curious - why does obtaining an MBA make you a more attractive applicant? For which roles is an MBA critical for? Especially if you went business school for your undergrad. Won’t the courses regurgitate the same ideas taught in undergrad? This question does not apply to tuition reimbursement opptys (I would take advantage) or for people who have studied any other field but business for undergrad
