The Conclusion
FMS Delhi still puts a major emphasis on CAT score, and the cut-off will remain high (99+ percentile) and gives more importance to the VARC section of CAT ( almost 40%). So just a good CAT performance will be enough to get a shortlist call from FMS. However, to get admission in FMS, the candidate needs to have a stellar performance in the GD-PI-Extempore round. Since then 3% extra marks being allotted female candidates, the b-school will see an increase in female candidates in the MBA batch.
Overall, you need to perform well in DI-LR and QA and are really good at VA-RC. This has to be paired with high academic scores and good oratory skills.
