@Omkarp i dont have info on the last percentile which converted. But FMS does not give weightage specifically to girls. You have to excel in GD/PI/Extrempre in case of a low CAT score. Hope this helps.

With 98.43 %ile General candidate, I am out of contention i guess...:(

@mayurdhingra , when will the fms shortlist be out??
1082
Congrats to everyone who has performed well in CAT. Anybody who has a 98.5+ score(general) can be hopeful for a call[NOTE: I said hopeful, obviously exact cut-offs cannot be predicted]. The trend at FMS has been: No weightage given to acads or work ex. No extra marks for being female or a non-engineer. Equal opportunity for all. As for extempore, there is absolutely nothing extra that you need to do. Rather, more often than not, the extempore topic will be something related to you. If you have a good CAT score and have applied to FMS, start preparing for the GDPI now itself. All the best. :)

@Mad-Head That's what has happened. But then again the Extempore topic can be completely random. Be prepared for all eventualities.
1092
@abhi2luv No sectional cut offs. You are almost surely in. All the best.
