MJ
Mansi Jain Posted On : April 15th, 2024

Rohit Jawa's path to CEO of HUL exemplifies the transformative power of FMS Delhi. The college's rigorous academics equipped him with the business foundation needed for the FMCG industry, while its focus on well-rounded development shaped his leadership and communication skills. Rohit joined HUL straight out of FMS as a management trainee, and his 35-year climb through the ranks to CEO is evidence of the program's ability to prepare students for exceptional careers.

What's the process for getting into FMS Delhi?

MJ
Mansi Jain Posted On : April 15th, 2024

Candidates are shortlisted based on a weighted score. This score is calculated by combining the percentiles from all three sections of the CAT exam (VARC, DILR, and QA) with differential weightage (40% 30% 30% respectively). Additionally, your marks from Class X and XII are considered (10% weightage each), with a bonus for scoring above 75% (10 points) or between 60-74% (5 points).

There's also an encouraging diversity factor: women candidates receive an additional 5 points for shortlisting purposes only. If you make the cut-off for this shortlist, you'll be invited for a Personal Interview (PI) where your performance will be evaluated alongside your weighted CAT score, academic marks, and a discussion on your Statement of Purpose (SOP). The weightage for final selection breaks down as follows: 50% for the weighted CAT score, 10% each for Class X and XII marks, 10% for the SOP discussion, 5% for Extempore and 15% for your performance in the PI.
