How come there are so many IAS toppers from FMS Delhi University?

Since 2011, the ratio of students entering Civil Services from all top B schools to their total strength has been increasing. This ratio is nearly identical for IIMs and FMS. People from XL, ISB, SP Jain and other B schools are unlikely to visit. There are several reasons why FMS, Delhi University produces so many IAS toppers:

  • Low fees relieve the burden of student loan repayment and allow students to take risks.
  • Low academic rigor and plenty of time to study for civils.
  • Very helpful and encouraging faculty members who will motivate you to join services over high-paying IB or consultancy jobs.
  • Being in Delhi makes it easier to obtain all the necessary study materials.
  • Interaction with other stream DU students in mixed hostels is beneficial.
  • The allure of Lutyens Delhi draws you into civil service.
  • Exposure to and interaction with a variety of serving and retired bureaucrats.
  • Having the opportunity to study at such a low cost motivates you to directly contribute to nation-building while foregoing high-paying jobs.
  • Most importantly, if you take management as an optional, you have a better chance of scoring well because the syllabus of the UPSC management exam, question paper pattern, and examiner's taste align well with our FMS faculty.
  • FMS is more well-known in the Delhi NCR area than L, I, and K, giving you a good reputation and a head start in UPSC interviews.

Every year, a few guys join FMS because they don't want to have two years on their resume that are blank. Plus, if you don't get into IAS, an MBA will be a great backup plan.

What are some helpful tips for students starting their first year at Anna University?

Rajan Kumar Posted On : December 1st, 2022
B.E from Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India (Graduated 2016)

There are some very basic tips one needs to follow that might prove to be really helpful for a student of Anna University. Some of them are:

  • Make sure your handwriting is neat and beautiful. Surprisingly enough how you write matters more than what you write.

  • Use bookish language more than your own words

  • Interactions with the opposite gender might put you into serious trouble 

  • Don’t oppose the professors no matter what they say. Respect them.

  • Do not use left hand for offering anything

  • Moustaches are necessary if you are a man and flowers+gold jewelry if you are a woman.

I know all these points are a bit weird but it’s true. Tamils respect their culture a lot and you might get disciplined for inflicting damages to it.

What are some helpful tips for students starting their first year at IIT Dhanbad?

AS
Ankit Sharma Posted On : October 12th, 2023
B.Tech. from Indian Institute of Technology, Dhanbad (2018)

As an alumnus, I have a fair share of experiences and takeaways from my college. Here are some tips for freshers starting their journey at IIT Dhanbad:

  1. You should be proud of having secured admission into one of the top engineering colleges in India. But don’t stop working hard, and chasing even bigger dreams.
  2. Unlike what some seniors will tell you, GPA matters a lot. During placements or for higher studies, GPA plays an important role. Maintain at least 8-8.5 GPA throughout. 
  3. You’ll meet some of the finest professors over there. However, some professors will hugely disappoint you. Learn to make peace with the fact that all your teachers won’t be up to your expectations.
  4. Talk to your seniors and juniors. You’ll learn a lot through networking with people.
  5. Join college clubs and societies. They will help shape your personality.
  6. Apart from technical skills, work on your soft skills as well. They’ll be very important during the pre-final and final years. Make use of the free time during your first year to work on your soft skills. If you aren’t a good speaker, join LITC/Toastmasters. 
  7. Travel a lot during college years. 

These are some tips from my personal experience. Other than that, study well and make the most of your time at IIT Dhanbad.
