Hey,

Your academics are pretty low to target old IIMs to be very honest. You need to target at least 99% percentile so as to be considered for the interview of old IIMs. That's too not a surety.

Different colleges have different criteria according to which they prepare an Index score for each candidate. And the students securing above the index score are selected for the interview round.

Try to to score as high as possible. Anything below 99 percentile would make it difficult for you.

Hope that helps.

All the best

Thank you.

Hey,

Generally the percentile required for CW-5 is below than what required for OBC category. OBC candidates requires 95+ percentile in CAT to make through FMS while CW-5 can expect a call at 70+ percentile as well.

Also, the composite score is obviously way lower for cw when compared to obc after extempore and further interview rounds.

Hope this helps.

Hey,

XLRI doesn't give any weightage to CAT since they conduct their own test called XAT. XAT is any other mba exam somewhat like CAT with two additional sections of decision making and GK, which gives admission in XLRI and may other colleges.

Whereas FMS consider only CAT score to get admission in it. Also you hav to fill a separate form for FMS apart from CAT to apply in their college once the CAT score is out.

Hope this helps.

XLRI JAMSHEDPUR: For the 2 years course offered by XLRI as full time PGDM (BM), PGDM (HRM) is that the applicant should have a bachelor's degree of minimum 3 years duration or equivalent. All the applicants should apply for XAT 2019. An applicant who is appearing for final year examination for bachelor's degree and are waiting for results can also apply.

FMS DELHI: Applicants should have minimum 50% in at least three year degree programme in Bachelor's degree and 45% for students belonging to SC/ST/OBC/PWD/CW category. Applicants who are appearing for final year in their Bachelor's degree course can also apply .

If you ask me, both of the colleges are very good and have good alumni network and reputation. However, if asked to choose one, go for XLRI, being the oldest and best MBA college, my choice would be XLRI.

College Infrastructure

university infrastructure is excellent and has high-tech classrooms with air conditioners. wi-fi connection is superfast. digital library is available in campus with many useful lectures. canteen is very big and having variety of food items.

OUTSTANDING

College Infrastructure

The campus is a part of the Delhi University North campus infrastructure and has high-tech classrooms. The campus is equipped with super-fast central Wi-Fi. FMS has its own library within the campus and students can also access the DU library which has a great repository.

FMS Delhi is the best thing that happened to me.

College Infrastructure

FMS Delhi has facilities like wifi, seminar hall, Video Conference halls, etc. however the institution lacks sports infra and the campus is very small, unlike other reputed B schools where the campus is spread across acres of land. Having said that, the campus has every facility that academics and the infra to facilitate the placement process. Since FMS is part of DU, certain DU resources can be used by FMS students.
