Can you tell us your FMS, Delhi PI experience?

JT
Jayant Thakur Posted On : January 10th, 2023
MBA from Faculty of Management Studies, University of Delhi (Graduated 2021)

People associate FMS with the ROI it provides, but they overlook many other benefits it provides, such as smaller batch sizes, good placements, location, DU campus, and so on. The following is the experience of a student's PI at FMS, Delhi.

He went to give his PI after his Group Discussion was finished. The interview was conducted by three female panellists. Before starting with the questions, he'd give an extempore about a project he worked on at his job. They then began questioning him about the nature of his job and his role in the company. They asked him a few basic statistics questions, such as what regression is, and went into detail about the project he mentioned in his extempore. The project was related to the analysis of data from a healthcare insurance company. They inquired about the project's scope, where he gathered data, and what the results of the analysis were. Though they grilled him extensively on this, he was able to answer their questions because he was very knowledgeable about what he did in that project. They also questioned him about his hometown and its history, the university he attended, his hobbies, and his strengths and weaknesses. 

The panellists ask questions to determine whether the candidate has a good mental presence and knowledge of the surroundings. The questions came in quick succession. And they needed answers quickly. It's critical to understand this because FMS interviews are brief. You must keep up with the panellists and respond accordingly.

B.V.Sc & A.H from Indian Veterinary Research Institute (2024)

To apply for the B.Tech program at GBPUAT, a deep understanding of basic PCM concepts is required from the students.

For the other UG courses, the university organizes a common exam. The multiple areas on which students are tested include- logical reasoning, basic Hindi, basic English, Mathematics, Physics, Biology, and Chemistry.

The examination’s difficulty level is not very high. However, there are only a limited number of seats because of which the final cut-off is high.

More than 90% of the questions can be solved with a thorough reading of the school syllabus (11th and 12th especially). Analytical reasoning and logical questions require basic common sense.

Time Management is very important to keep in mind.

Students who do not belong to Uttarakhand need to seek admission to the UG programs through ICAR’s entrance exam. The top rankers in ICAR’s entrance exam get admission into the university.

Paper Pattern (Other UG Courses)

  • Total 200 compulsory questions
  • GENERAL APTITUDE, LOGICAL/VERBAL/NON-VERBAL REASONING - 50 questions for students of both PCM and PCB streams
  • For PCM students 50 Math questions, For PCB students 50 Biology questions
  • Chemistry and Physics, both containing 50 questions each, for students of both PCM and PCB streams

AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : March 31st, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

If you have cleared the SSC CGL exam and are looking for a technical post in a central government department, you may be disappointed to find out that this exam primarily focuses on candidates with humanities and commerce backgrounds. Therefore, it may be beneficial to explore other options that align more closely with your educational background and interests.

One possible path for individuals with a background in civil engineering is to consider the Indian Engineering Services (IES) exam. This exam is specifically designed for those who have studied engineering and offers a range of technical posts in various government departments, including the railways, defense, and public works.

By pursuing the IES exam, you will be able to leverage your technical expertise and qualifications to secure a job that aligns with your interests and career goals. This can open up opportunities for professional development and advancement within your field and provide you with a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction in your work.

It is important to remember that both the SSC CGL and IES exams offer different career paths and job opportunities. Therefore, it is crucial to carefully consider your options and choose an approach that aligns with your interests, qualifications, and career aspirations.
