University: University of Delhi (DU)


The entrance test for Bachelor in Management Studies is scheduled for Wednesday, June 26, 2013. It will be conducted in six cities—Delhi, Kolkata, Allahabad, Chandigarh, Ahmadabad and Hyderabad.

The written test will consist of multiple-choice questions. There is no fixed syllabus or format. But questions on quantitative ability, reasoning and analytical ability, general English, business and general awareness were a part of entrance tests in the past.

The candidate will have to attempt 100 questions in 120 minutes. The answers are to be marked by blue or black ball point pen on a separate answer sheet (OMR) provided during the entrance test.

About 22,000 registrations took place for 840 seats in six colleges of Delhi University. Bachelors in Business Economics, Bachelors in Financial and Investment Analysis and Bachelors in Business Studies were scrapped this year after the introduction of BMS. Being placed under the Faculty of Management Studies (FMS) also resulted in greater interest in the course.

The test will be followed by an interview. The final selection will be based on the performance in the test (40% weightage), Class XII result (30%) and the interview (20%). "Based on the overall score, a rank shall be allotted to each candidate in each category. Candidates with the higher merit in accordance with the overall score in each category shall be offered admission in the college," said a statement released by the Dean of Students' Welfare.

A counselling session will be held where candidates will be allotted colleges on the basis of the merit list and their own preference, but the allotment need not be fixed. A candidate will be allowed, in another counselling session later, to change college if seats are available in the desired institution. The candidate should have paid the fees and taken admission in the previous college to be allowed to seek a change.
