Ans. The reservation criteria for a total of 113 seats of the BBA (FIA) course are listed below:

• General: 45
• SC: 17
• ST: 8

Ans. BMS and BBA (FIA) both are good courses offered by SSCBS, Delhi University. The subject may overlap between these two but overall BMS is a much broader course covering more subject areas like Accountancy, Management, economics, statistics, etc. Whereas BBA (FIA) is a more finance centric course. At the end of the day what matters is what you want to choose. If you have a specific interest in finance then BBA (FIA) is the better option. But if you are not so sure what you want to specialise in, then go for BMS which is more generic. Also In Delhi University, the number of seats available for BBA (FIA) is less. So a BBA (FIA) degree can be more valuable.
