Which is better, IIM Sirmaur tourism and hospitality or FMS BHU?

KA
Kumar Abhijit Posted On : January 19th, 2023
Former Student at Indian Institute of Management Sirmaur (2019–2021)

FMS BHU gives an edge to IIM Sirmaur in almost every aspect. The fact that it is a baby IIM yet to establish its position in the industry is the main drawback of IIM Sirmaur. Even its IIM tag lacks credibility and worth because of its weak alumni base and below average placements. However, if you are specifically choosing IIM for the course and not the tag, then you might go for it.

FMS BHU is one of the leading B Schools technically due to its early establishment. It has an upper hand in the following aspects when compared to IIM Sirmaur

  • Better placements than IIM Sirmaur
  • Strong alumni base
  • Better infrastructure and faculty

Can I get a call from IIM ABC or FMS Delhi with 98 percentile, having 74/94/79 in 10, 12, and graduation commerce background with OBC category?

TA

Due to your below-average 10th score and the fact that you do not have any relevant work experience, you might face some difficulty but there is a possibility that these universities will contact you for an interview; nevertheless, this is not a given. Never give up on your hopes and faith. CAT percentile, academic background, work experience, extracurricular activities, and other variables influence whether IIM ABC or FMS Delhi calls you. Despite a 98 percentile CAT score, elite B-schools may not call.

These institutes weigh diversity and academic diversity in their selection process, so your academic background and OBC status may help you. These institutes' cut-offs may change year to year depending on candidates' CAT scores.

However, with a 98 percentile CAT score, you may receive calls from top B-schools. To improve your chances of selection, focus on your entire profile—academics, work, and extracurriculars. All the best buddy!

All the aforementioned colleges are among the best B Schools in India so the choice between them depends on your preference and future prospects. You need to determine what exactly you want from the program and where your career currently is. 

In general, ISB is for people who have better industry experience, good leadership skills and decent academics. The other B Schools focus more on excellent academics throughout your career.

The ranking of these institutes in my opinion is ISB, IIM-A, B, C>IIM-L, FMS, XLRI,>SPJIMR

The above preference order is based on a number of factors like career progression, college market value perception, quality of faculty, quality of students, academic learning, quality of recruiters and infrastructure.

Studied at FMS

FMS Delhi, one of India's top business schools, is noted for its strong academic program and staff. The program cost, starting salary, and job prospects affect business school ROI. 

According to the Economic Times, FMS Delhi graduates earn an average of INR 24 lakhs per year (as of 2021), far greater than the program's cost. This shows that many students can profit from an FMS Delhi business degree. However, career path, job market, and personal circumstances can affect ROI.
