To be honest, anything less than 95 percentile in CAT is going to be less for being shortlisted for FMS irrespective of the Academic profile that you have built up.  A Candidate with at least 97 sectional weightage will be shortlisted at FMS. So it is important to focus more on VARC section while not leaving other sections. Higher cut offs are due to the intensity of the competition at FMS, Delhi.

Hi Aspirant ,

Waiting list at FMS consists of 487 candidates this year. Last year this list had 379 candidates. The longer list is prepared foreseeing more candidates moving up to the main list. For candidates paying up at various places, it is an expensive proposition. FMS is sensitive to that requirement of the candidates.” During the past years many candidates from the waitlist got the chance to pursue MBA from FMS Delhi and year 2016 is no exception. Accordingly longer waitlist has been prepared by FMS Delhi.  The category wise waitlists have the names of candidates in order of merit and not in alphabetic order. Accordingly, the top 25 candidates in General category, top 10 in OBC category, top 5 in SC category, top 3 in ST category, top 2 in CW and 1 in PWD category among the waitlisted ones may expect to receive the final admission offer from FMS Delhi in the 3rd week of May 2016.

Hope this helped !
