Hello,
As per the last year's statistics, for the General category, it's cutoff was 98.6%. They don't take your past academics into consideration. So practically, you just need to score more than 50% in graduation and clear off the cutoff. But if you look at the average age of the current students studying here, it's ranging between 26-28 years because of the work experience. So my advice is to go for the job after your graduation and simultaneously prepare for CAT.
Thank you. -

Dear Reenu,
In order to take admission in FMS-DU, you need to give CAT exam. As per the last year's statistics, for the General category, it's cutoff was 98.6%. They don't take your past academics into consideration. So practically, you just need to score more than 50% in graduation and clear off the cutoff. But if you look at the average age of the current students studying here, it's ranging between 26-28 years because of the work experience. So my advice is to go for the job after your graduation and simultaneously prepare for CAT. This will gives the edge over other students and gives a very good time for preparing the CAT.
