I’m a fresher. I have converted FMS Delhi. Got waitlisted at C with a bleak chance. Should I retry CAT for IIM Ahmedabad Calcutta or stick to FMS?

The overall rankings of FMS Delhi and IIM A/C are comparable (IIM A & C rank better than FMS in terms of placements and college life though).

FMS has its own set of advantages, such as the best ROI in India and placements in the core Finance domain, among many others. You must have performed exceptionally well on CAT 201 to receive a call from FMS. Asking yourself the following questions will help you retake the CAT.

• What do you hope to gain from your post-graduation experience?

Start a career at a high salary, get a brand name, or develop your own personality by staying and studying with the industry's best minds.

• Which field do you want to begin your career in?

 Consulting/core finance/marketing, for example.

• Are you willing to invest a year of your life to prepare for the CAT again, and are you confident of scoring 99+ percentile in 2019?

• The maximum amount of money you can afford to pay in fees.
