How is FMS Delhi better than the IIMs?

This is known as the "Clash of the Titans." At one end, there is India's leading chain of top B-schools (there are 20 in total), and the opponent attempting to oppose them is the Faculty of Management Studies, New Delhi, which is renowned as the B-school with the highest ROI in India.

Round 1 Procedures for Selection Comparison

IIMs require a high CAT percentile (excellent meaning 99-100) as well as at least 80% in 10th and 12th grades. Your graduation grade should be exhilarating as well.

The subsequent rounds are also available once you have passed the CAT with the required percentile. WAT (Writing Ability Test) and PI (Personal Interview) are the two rounds. Your leadership experience is critical in the PI round.

Once you seek admission to FMS, it is no less brutal than IIMs. The basic qualifying condition in their selection process is also a CAT score with an excellent percentile. Though their academic qualification eligibility standards appear to be wide, they genuinely evaluate only those with outstanding academic records.

Candidates who are shortlisted based on their CAT scores and academic records will be required to go through additional rounds of GD, PI, and Extempore.

Both opponents receive the same score here.

Round 2 Comparison of Professors

IIMs: IIMs, particularly the top tier ones, have some very outstanding minds from around the world to teach management learning at its best. They are a diverse group of veteran and young academics that value interactive sessions.

FMS: It has no envy for the professors on board at IIMs because they also have brilliant academicians on their boards. Click the Faculty Directory to view their faculty member's individual profiles.
