Seniors,

When does the result comes out? I heard the results comes out on the last day of PI. If it is true, I will skip other interviews and undergo a surgery. Please reply.

Thanks,

You heard it right,generally the final result comes out a day after the GDPIs are over...in our case the GDPIs ended on 30th March and the final list came out on 1st April...

On another note I hope you guys are making full use of the mentorship program that has been launched by the seniors of FMS....for those still unaware,please go through this link

seniors some quick tips for those who do not ve time on their hands ll be greatly appreciated
some mandatory things or topics or ques ....... anything

as i ve b com papers in mar so i cannot concentrate on gd pi & newspapers all
as single call at hand cannot mess my finals

Some Quick Tips:
1. Read the newspaper on the day of interview. They can very well ask you the headlines!
2. In 90% of cases, extempore topic is something related to your name or profile. A guy named 'Deepak' can be given a topic around Lights, or a Doctor may get a topic on the medical field.. so try guessing some topics, might actually help!
3. Practice extempore on any random topic.
4. Freshers should expect some questions on Acads.
5. Have your HR questions ready. Why FMS, Why not after work-ex.. blah blah..
6. Those who will not be the fish in fish market will emerge as the golden fish! So make sure you dont spoil the GD!

Read-up as much as you can.. It gives you the content, and most important, the confidence!

Hi Seniors,

My FMS and IIM Kozhikode inteview process are on the same day and time . IIM kozhikode have declined to change my GD PI date . I know FMS do not change the GD PI dates. But if I request them , is it possible ? I don't want to leave any one of them. Please help.

Not sure if it is possible or not, but send a request mail to admissions@fms.edu
You can atleast try!

I think the fees part is definitely something you can mention.

its better to talk about ROI rather than the fees.

seniors...plz share some info about FMS which is not available on the website, something which will help us answer questions like IIM or FMS??....please..

TIA

This question would invariably come up in the PI if you have multiple calls. I think a good way to dodge the question would be to say something like "I wanted to attend only the best B-schools in the country, and applied only to the top ones. Whichever college gives me an offer first, I'll take it"

If you have some genuine reasons for attending FMS over an IIM, then say it out loud. For instance, I want to go to FMS because of the low cost (a major point), proximity to my hometown (Jaipur), and its location in North Campus where I studied for 3 years and already have friends.

I think the fees part is definitely something you can mention.

stratovirus Says

i do not have experience letter from my company. I can get my offer letter (i.e. joining letter) and the latest payslip (which mentions my date of joining). Can anyone from FMS kindly confirm and tell that this would be ok?

u just need to get your offer letter and the latest pay slip. experience letter is not required as of now.

Is there any site where list of questions asked in fms are posted( apart from PG)

seniors pls help....
In the interview form , the section where we had to mention extra curricular activities i have mentioned my hobbies by mistake...
will it have major negative impact during the interviews...

Hey,
I also did the same kinda mistake being overcautious ,but later i filled fresh copy printed from the datasheet in email.

Just hope they don't notice difference between last two points of datasheet,viz.extracurricular and awards as such.And if they do,telling the truth , i.e,you ware overcautious while filling might help.Or maybe whatever the best you think.

Guys i've got a query. I hope someone frm the FMS batches are reading this.
Absurd, though it may sound ..
The SOP states: 'Discuss your career goals and state in about 200 words how being at FMS can help you to achieve these goals'

is the 200 words exclusive of 'My Career goal desc'
OR
is it inclusive.
considering the dates, a quick reply is highly thanked for . :)

All inclusive buddy. Being Precise is also an art. Now is the time to show ur talent...ATB:-P

Its inclusive..

The previous SOP will not be considered.

For the purpose of the interview, only the latest SOP that you are sending in now will be considered.

Got this clarified from the admin office.

Ravisha21 Says

plz tell me do we have to write the same sop which we wrote while filling up the form?? plz reply its urgent

hey, it's not compulsory that yu write the same one. The earlier one was to be written in around 150 words. And this one is 200 words. You may take points from the previous one and expand more on those, cite some examples etc. to make it close to 200 words....

make it fast...

plz tell me do we have to write the same sop which we wrote while filling up the form?? plz reply its urgent

Dude,
I have written my CPI there and have put a bracket ie ( x.xx /10 )

So is this correct ?

ya this should be fine.

FMS BATCH 2010-2012

but i have converted it to percentage and already sent the form...
will der b ne issues???

to be at a safer side get a letter from your college for GPA to percentage conversion.

incase of people with GPA scores, please mention the GPAs do not convert it to percentage.

kvijaybabu Says

MBA-MS and FT are merged to MBA. So it should be similar if not exactly same.

To dissuade you of the notion, even if both FT and MS curriculum is almost similar (and for this reason the merging was on papers for a long time) the campus lives differ significantly for the two batches...and you guys will be attending the classes at the north campus(that is the FT one). Hence it will be different from the south campus experience(that is the MS one)
Our new website is getting ready where we will have section on the life at FMS at the north campus...till then keep anticiapting :-P

FMS BATCH 2010-2012

hey can someone post gd extempore last year topics

by first page if u mean the letter which mentions ur slot time and day .. then u didnt have to send it. But that wont be an issue, and good that u have a xerox. I hope u have kept a copy of ur filled form as they do tend to question u on ur form. So if u have mentioned regarding some paper presentation competition or some project then please be prepared for the same.

FMS BATCH 2010-2012

were we supposed to send the first sheet along with the filled up form?
i did send that too..though i have a xerox of it...

Reply soon, gotta send the form in some time.

both the roll no and the reg. no are different and they are in the admit card

I have send my datasheet

and i m fretting over it

this might just be the silliest question ever asked here
but i am really worried @_@
i wrote management instead of distribution and than cut management and wrote distribution.

Just a quick question. Can the form be submitted in person at FMS itself? I assume this should be true, but if someone can just confirm it

But I have already sent the typed form ..shall I send it again by writing it in my own handwriting.???????

Hi Seniors,
Shall I take a print of the filled form and send it to FMS or do I need to write it myself and send. How much different does this make.

Please reply ASAP as I am already late and need to send it urgently.

Thanks in advance.
