Question

What is the average GMAT score required for  Frankfurt School of Finance and Management MIM?

B.K Sharma · Accepted Answer

A lot of applicants get surprised that GMAT isn&rsquo;t a fixed requirement for the FSFM MiM. It&rsquo;s more of a case-by-case thing.

Most admitted students who choose to submit scores tend to land around 640&ndash;670.
If the GPA or university reputation is below average, a solid GMAT can act as a backup.
FSFM sometimes asks for a test post-application review, so being GMAT-ready helps.
Unlike some EU schools, FSFM puts decent weight on quant skills, so even an average score with a strong Quant percentile is seen favorably.
Optional but strategic: submitting a score above 660 can boost chances for the early-bird or partial scholarships.

One thing often missed is that  FSFM also accepts GRE and CFA Level 1 as alternatives. So if GMAT prep isn&rsquo;t going well, there are still valid ways to meet their expectations.

FSFM does not ask every MiM applicant to take the GMAT,  but when you submit one, they usually expect it to be competitive.
&bull; Admitted students with GMAT scores generally land in the 620&ndash;680 bracket, with 650 being the average. &bull; If your GPA is strong and you have relevant internships or extracurricular leadership, the admissions team might waive the GMAT altogether. &bull; Submitting a 650+ can be useful if you come from a less quantitative background or an unfamiliar university, as it reassures them of your academic readiness. &bull; FSFM also accepts the GRE as an alternative to GMAT, and competitive GRE scores can serve the same purpose. &bull; Applicants with business or econ degrees and high GPAs often skip the GMAT without hurting their chances.
One candidate from an engineering background applied with a 660 GMAT and no prior finance work &mdash; the score helped offset the lack of domain experience, leading to an admit.

The average GMAT score for the Frankfurt School of Finance & Management MiM typically falls around 650. While there&rsquo;s no strict cutoff, most accepted candidates who submit GMAT scores are in the 620&ndash;680 range.
That said, GMAT isn&rsquo;t mandatory for FSFM MiM &mdash; it&rsquo;s only required if the admissions team asks for it after reviewing your initial application. If the profile shows strong academics, internships, and a relevant undergrad degree (especially in business or econ), they often waive it.
Bottom line: aim for 650+ if planning to submit, but it&rsquo;s not the only factor that matters in the FSFM MiM selection process.

The average GMAT score for Frankfurt School of Finance & Management&rsquo;s MiM is usually around 650, with most admits who submit scores falling in the 620&ndash;680 range. There&rsquo;s no fixed minimum, but a 650+ puts you in a comfortable spot if you want to strengthen your profile.
GMAT is not required for everyone, FSFM only asks for it if your academic record or work experience doesn&rsquo;t already show strong quantitative and analytical skills. For applicants with strong grades, internships, or a relevant bachelor&rsquo;s degree (like business, economics, or finance), it&rsquo;s often waived.
One admit got in without a GMAT by having a 3.8/4.0 GPA in economics, two internships in corporate finance, and leadership roles in their university&rsquo;s investment club. So, while the test can help, it&rsquo;s only one part of the evaluation, and a strong overall profile can balance a slightly lower score &mdash; or no score at all.
