One of my cousins is from the 2016-18 batch and during her batch, the strength was around 190 to 200. At present, it can be 200 to 300 easily.
When it comes to placements, I can confidently state that the figures on the FORE website are right. Placement in FORE is dominated by marketing, IT, and consulting positions. It outperforms IMI as far as ROI is concerned.
Check a brief insight on placements in the table below:
Top recruiters |
Asian Paints, Nestle, Hindustan, Bacardi, TATA Motors, Hero, Whirlpool, HDFC, etc |
Placement rate |
97% |

10.6 LPA |

In the end, it is up to you to decide whether or not you should join FORE. I would not recommend you to quit your job and study hard for the CAT if you want to get into tier 1 or 2 institutions. Give yourself some time to think properly about what you want or where you want to go and then decide something.
