Dear Aguirre,
You need to meet the admissions requirements as specified by LSE. Ideally, you want to be viewed as an "above average" applicant for the program, meaning your test scores and GPA are higher than the class averages, and other profile attributes are outstanding. If you are not above the average, that does not mean you don't have a chance; however, you will want to factor that in when crafting your strategy for how you will present your background and experiences. For the best information, you should contact LSE and speak with an admissions professional after doing some thorough preliminary research.
Good luck,
Lisa
