Ppl with 90 attempts also made it thru entrance this yr...All the best too all of you...Post if there r any further queries.
just to add on to ashish's point...
The paper pattern was really jumbled this time around. I mean in my set I had RC then LR thn quant then DI and then VA.
So its very important for you to know that which section are u gonna target..else you will keep on flipping in between pages.

Cheers

Hi there,

Just to clarify there is absolutely no quota in FMS except SC, ST and PH...No pref as such to Delhites too...Just that Delhi ppl r too enthu abt FMS...Nothing more than that...In my batch not more than 22-25% r frm Delhi which will b d case in max B-schools...Dont worry too much...Its a very very fair and nice process...U will enjoy but just study hard!!! Keep posting in case of further queries...

Also this 22-25% can change depending on d calls...as in they dont look at ur domiciles before giving interview calls...Just work hard...Accuracy is very important...

One thing abt FMS is that u cant do very well in only one section and leave d rest (though there is no sectional cut-offs)..The number is ques is so large that u need to do well in almost all sections...

LR was pretty tricky last yr so practice hard...Maths had a few ques frm Complex numbers, Co-ordinate Geom so revise those too...All the best!!!

Am i allowed to answer this question too?

Ur question: if u r provided with the material and do a steady amount of hard work with a good focus is it possible to crack FMS??

Ans: If u have the focus u can crack any exam including FMS,CAT XAT etc....FMS really has got a tough competition but its nt that tuf a nut to crack...It has got advantages that not many exams have like no sectionals and the advantage of such a big choice of questions to do....

And i think if all of us gave up studying for FMS...none of us wud be thr.....

Best of luck

Cheers
Gaurav

Hi,

The answer is a plain yes and pls see wat gaurav has answered...(the post above mine)...U must give a damn abt such ppl and give d max that u can...Just knw urself as in ur comforts zones and not so comfort zones and then make a strategy..Dont miss/leave any area because u can never predict these exams..

Also no exam is easy/tough by itself...Its only d competition that matters d most...In FMS they shortlist 400 odd ppl in GEN category so thats where u have to b and d score doesnt matter...Keep rocking!!!!
