$10,000 OVER 10 YEARS: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Fidelity Advisor Equity Growth - Class B on November 30,
1987. As the chart shows, by November 30, 1997, the value of the
investment would have been $86,219 - a 762.19% increase on the initial
investment. For comparison, look at how the S&P 500 did over the same
period. With dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same
$10,000 investment would have grown to $55,623 - a 456.23% increase.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although financial turmoil in Pacific Basin countries was a catalyst
for significant volatility in U.S. markets in late October and into
November, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index has risen more than 31%
year-to-date, almost three times its historical annual average.
Meanwhile, bond markets - primarily influenced by a relatively steady
flow of positive news on the inflation front - continued to post solid
returns through the first 11 months of 1997.
While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets
with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that
can help investors plan for their future needs.
First, investors are encouraged to take a long-term view of their
portfolios. If you can afford to leave your money invested through the
inevitable up and down cycles of the financial markets, you will
greatly reduce your vulnerability to any single decline. We know from
experience, for example, that stock prices have gone up over longer
periods of time, have significantly outperformed other types of
investments and have stayed ahead of inflation. 
Second, you can further manage your investing risk through
diversification. A stock mutual fund, for instance, is already
diversified, because it invests in many different companies. You can
increase your diversification further by investing in a number of
different stock funds, or in such other investment categories as
bonds. If you have a short investment time horizon, you might want to
consider moving some of your investment into a money market fund,
which seeks income and a stable share price by investing in
high-quality, short-term investments. Of course, it's important to
remember that there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal of maintaining a stable net asset value of $1.00 per
share, and that these types of funds are neither insured nor
guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a
certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or
quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing
so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising
market, nor will you buy all your shares at market highs. While this
strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - won't assure a profit or
protect you from a loss in a declining market, it should help you
lower the average cost of your purchases.
Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with
your investments.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
ADVISOR EQUITY GROWTH - CLASS A
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual
percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment.
Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment,
assuming reinvestment of the class' dividend income and capital gains
(the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in
value). The initial offering of Class A shares took place on September
3, 1996. Class A shares bear a 0.25% 12b-1 fee that is reflected in
returns after September 3, 1996. Returns between September 10, 1992
(the date Class T shares were first offered) and September 3, 1996 are
those of Class T and reflect Class T shares' 0.50% 12b-1 fee (0.65%
prior to January 1, 1996). Returns prior to September 10, 1992 are
those of the Institutional Class, the original class of the fund,
which does not bear a 12b-1 fee. Had Class A shares' 12b-1 fee been
reflected, returns prior to September 10, 1992 would have been lower.
Effective August 1, 1997, the maximum 5.25% sales charge on Class A
shares was increased to 5.75%. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain
class expenses, the total returns would have been lower.

CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show Class A's performance in percentage
terms over a set period - in this case, one year, five years or 10
years. For example, if you had invested $1,000 in a fund that had a 5%
return over the past year, the value of your investment would be
$1,050. You can compare Class A's returns to those of the Standard &
Poor's 500 Index - a widely recognized, unmanaged index of common
stocks. To measure how Class A's performance stacked up against its
peers, you can compare it to the growth funds average, which reflects
the performance of mutual funds with similar objectives tracked by
Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. The past one year average represents
a peer group of 791 mutual funds. These benchmarks include reinvested
dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude the effect of sales
charges.

$10,000 OVER 10 YEARS: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Fidelity Advisor Equity Growth - Class A on November 30,
1987, and the current maximum 5.75% sales charge was paid. As the
chart shows, by November 30, 1997, the value of the investment would
have grown to $81,682 - a 716.82% increase on the initial investment.
For comparison, look at how the S&P 500 did over the same period. With
dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000
investment would have grown to $55,623 - a 456.23% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is 
no guarantee of how it will do 
tomorrow. The stock market, 
for example, has a history of 
long-term growth and 
short-term volatility. In turn, the 
share price and return of a 
fund that invests in stocks will 
vary. That means if you sell 
your shares during a market 
downturn, you might lose 
money. But if you can ride out 
the market's ups and downs, 
you may have a gain.

ADVISOR EQUITY GROWTH - CLASS T
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual
percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment.
Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment,
assuming reinvestment of the class' dividend income and capital gains
(the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in
value). The initial offering of Class T shares took place on September
10, 1992. Class T shares bear a 0.50% 12b-1 fee (0.65% prior to
January 1, 1996) that is reflected in returns after September 10,
1992. Returns prior to that date are those of the Institutional Class,
the original class of the fund, which does not bear a 12b-1 fee. Had
Class T shares' 12b-1 fee been reflected, returns prior to September
10, 1992 would have been lower. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain
class expenses, the total returns would have been lower.

CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show Class T's performance in percentage
terms over a set period - in this case, one year, five years or 10
years. For example, if you had invested $1,000 in a fund that had a 5%
return over the past year, the value of your investment would be
$1,050. You can compare Class T's returns to those of the Standard &
Poor's 500 Index - a widely recognized, unmanaged index of common
stocks. To measure how Class T's performance stacked up against its
peers, you can compare it to the growth funds average, which reflects
the performance of mutual funds with similar objectives tracked by
Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. The past one year average represents
a peer group of 791 mutual funds. These benchmarks include reinvested
dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude the effect of sales
charges.

$10,000 OVER 10 YEARS: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Fidelity Advisor Equity Growth - Class T on November 30,
1987, and the current maximum 3.50% sales charge was paid. As the
chart shows, by November 30, 1997, the value of the investment would
have grown to $83,707 - a 737.07% increase on the initial investment.
For comparison, look at how the S&P 500 did over the same period. With
dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000
investment would have grown to $55,623 - a 456.23% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is 
no guarantee of how it will do 
tomorrow. The stock market, 
for example, has a history of 
long-term growth and 
short-term volatility. In turn, the 
share price and return of a 
fund that invests in stocks will 
vary. That means if you sell 
your shares during a market 
downturn, you might lose 
money. But if you can ride out 
the market's ups and downs, 
you may have a gain.

ADVISOR EQUITY GROWTH - CLASS B
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual
percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment.
Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment,
assuming reinvestment of the class' dividend income and capital gains
(the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in
value). The initial offering of Class B shares took place on December
31, 1996. Class B shares bear a 1.00% 12b-1/shareholder service fee
that is reflected in returns after December 31, 1996. Returns between
September 10, 1992 (the date Class T shares were first offered) and
December 31, 1996 are those of Class T and reflect Class T shares'
0.50% 12b-1 fee (0.65% prior to January 1, 1996). Returns prior to
September 10, 1992 are those of the Institutional Class, the original
class of the fund, which does not bear a 12b-1 fee. Had Class B
shares' 12b-1 fee been reflected, returns prior to December 31, 1996
would have been lower. Class B's contingent deferred sales charge
included in the past one year, past five years, and past 10 years
total return figures are 5%, 2% and 0%, respectively. If Fidelity had
not reimbursed certain class expenses, the total returns would have
been lower.

CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show Class B's performance in percentage
terms over a set period - in this case, one year, five years or 10
years. For example, if you had invested $1,000 in a fund that had a 5%
return over the past year, the value of your investment would be
$1,050. You can compare Class B's returns to those of the Standard &
Poor's 500 Index - a widely recognized, unmanaged index of common
stocks. To measure how Class B's performance stacked up against its
peers, you can compare it to the growth funds average, which reflects
the performance of mutual funds with similar objectives tracked by
Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. The past one year average represents
a peer group of 791 mutual funds. These benchmarks include reinvested
dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude the effect of sales
charges.

$10,000 OVER 10 YEARS: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Fidelity Advisor Equity Growth - Class B on November 30,
1987. As the chart shows, by November 30, 1997, the value of the
investment would have been $85,808 - a 758.08% increase on the initial
investment. For comparison, look at how the S&P 500 did over the same
period. With dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same
$10,000 investment would have grown to $55,623 - a 456.23% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is 
no guarantee of how it will do 
tomorrow. The stock market, 
for example, has a history of 
long-term growth and 
short-term volatility. In turn, the 
share price and return of a 
fund that invests in stocks will 
vary. That means if you sell 
your shares during a market 
downturn, you might lose 
money. But if you can ride out 
the market's ups and downs, 
you may have a gain.

ADVISOR EQUITY GROWTH - CLASS C
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual
percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment.
Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment,
assuming reinvestment of the class' dividend income and capital gains
(the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in
value). The initial offering of Class C shares took place on November
3, 1997. Class C shares bear a 1.00% 12b-1/shareholder service fee
that is reflected in returns after November 3, 1997. Returns between
December 31, 1996 (the date Class B shares were first offered) and
November 3, 1997 are those of Class B shares and reflect Class B
shares' 1.00% 12b-1/shareholder service fee. Returns between September
10, 1992 (the date Class T shares were first offered) and December 31,
1996 are those of Class T shares, and reflect Class T shares' 0.50%
12b-1 fee (0.65% prior to January 1, 1996). Returns prior to September
10, 1992 are those of the Institutional Class, the original class of
the fund which does not bear a 12b-1 fee. Had Class C shares'
12b-1/shareholder service fee been reflected, returns prior to
September 10, 1992 would have been lower. Class C shares' contingent
deferred sales charge included in the past one year total return
figure is 1.00%. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class
expenses, the total returns would have been lower.

CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show Class C's performance in percentage
terms over a set period - in this case, one year, five years or 10
years. For example, if you had invested $1,000 in a fund that had a 5%
return over the past year, the value of your investment would be
$1,050. You can compare Class C's returns to those of the Standard &
Poor's 500 Index - a widely recognized, unmanaged index of common
stocks. To measure how Class C's performance stacked up against its
peers, you can compare it to the growth funds average, which reflects
the performance of mutual funds with similar objectives tracked by
Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. The past one year average represents
a peer group of 791 mutual funds. These benchmarks include reinvested
dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude the effect of sales
charges.

$10,000 OVER 10 YEARS: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Fidelity Advisor Equity Growth - Class C on November 30,
1987. As the chart shows, by November 30, 1997, the value of the
investment would have been $85,806 - a 758.06% increase on the initial
investment. For comparison, look at how the S&P 500 did over the same
period. With dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same
$10,000 investment would have grown to $55,623 - a 456.23% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is 
no guarantee of how it will do 
tomorrow. The stock market, 
for example, has a history of 
long-term growth and 
short-term volatility. In turn, the 
share price and return of a 
fund that invests in stocks will 
vary. That means if you sell 
your shares during a market 
downturn, you might lose 
money. But if you can ride out 
the market's ups and downs, 
you may have a gain.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
 
 
 
MARKET RECAP
The 12 months that ended 
November 30, 1997, was a period 
that truly tested the U.S. stock 
market's resolve. But despite 
frequent shifts in sentiment, an 
interest-rate hike and global 
volatility concerns, U.S. stocks still 
managed to perform well. The 
Standard & Poor's 500 Index - a 
broad gauge of the U.S. stock 
market - returned 28.51% during 
the period, well above the market's 
long-term annual average of 
around 11%. In the first half of the 
period, large-cap stocks were 
responsible for much of the 
market's gain, as investors were 
drawn to stocks with recognizable 
names and consistent 
earnings-growth track records. 
Consequently, stock prices soared 
and enthusiasm was high. The 
Federal Reserve Board - in an 
attempt to halt inflation before it 
appeared - raised a key 
short-term interest rate by 0.25% in 
March. The market paused briefly, 
but then kept rolling as the Dow 
Jones Industrial Average reached 
the 8,000-point mark for the first 
time ever in August. With several 
multinational companies 
announcing earnings shortfalls in 
mid-August, small-cap stocks came 
into favor among investors. 
During August and September, the 
Russell 2000 Index - which 
measures small-cap stock 
performance - was up 9.78% 
while the S&P was down 0.43%. 
Volatility in Asian markets in late 
October sent skittish investors 
running for cover. The Dow slid 
554 points in one day, then 
snapped back the next, reclaiming 
330-plus points. Sensing continued 
fallout from this volatility, investors 
again became quality-conscious 
and large-caps regained their 
perch through November.
An interview with Jennifer Uhrig, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity
Advisor Equity Growth Fund
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, JENNIFER?
A. For the 12 months that ended November 30, 1997, the fund's Class A,
Class T, Class B and Class C shares returned 19.73%, 19.81%, 18.52%
and 18.52%, respectively. The growth funds average returned 22.00%
during this time, according to Lipper Analytical Services. The
Standard & Poor's 500 Index had a 12-month return of 28.51%.
Q. WHY DID THE FUND UNDERPERFORM BOTH ITS PEER GROUP AND THE S&P 500
DURING THE PERIOD?
A. The fund was hurt by poor stock selection within the technology
sector. While the fund was overweighted in technology stocks relative
to the S&P 500 - and the group outperformed the market slightly for
the total period - this outperformance was concentrated among a few
large names. The average mid-cap and small-cap tech stock
underperformed the market significantly. In particular, the fund was
hurt by its exposure to networking stocks, which lagged the market in
the first quarter. Additionally, not owning enough financial
services-related stocks also detracted from performance. I decided not
to overweight this sector since financial services is not a growth
area, and is not typically a focus for an aggressive growth fund. I
also believed that it was late in the business cycle to be overly
exposed to this highly cyclical group. In retrospect, this was a
mistake because these stocks performed well.
Q. SINCE YOU TOOK OVER THE FUND IN JANUARY 1997, WHAT MAJOR CHANGES
HAVE YOU MADE AND WHY?
A. The main changes I made were to reduce the number of positions in
the fund and make the top holdings more concentrated. By doing so, I
was able to invest more heavily in my best ideas. I've also decreased
the fund's cash position by adding to existing holdings. At the end of
the period, the fund's top 10 positions accounted for about one-fourth
of the fund's investments versus around 19% at the beginning of the
period. In addition, I increased the fund's health-care holdings,
particularly in pharmaceutical stocks. While we're looking at 12-month
performance in this report, I would point out that the fund's
second-half performance was more in line with its peer group. It took
a while to see the effects of these changes, but recent performance
indicates that these strategies may be working.
Q. CAN YOU HIGHLIGHT A FEW STOCKS THAT PERFORMED WELL? ANY
DISAPPOINTMENTS?
A. Microsoft - the fund's second-largest position as of November 30 -
was a very strong contributor to performance. Microsoft had a terrific
first half of the year, with earnings exceeding expectations due to
better-than-expected sales of its applications products. While the
stock has treaded water in the second half of the year, the company
looks well-positioned to benefit from new platform products in 1998.
Some of the fund's retail and energy service stocks also contributed
positively. Wal-Mart, for example, improved its balance sheet, shrunk
inventories and bought back stock, while Schlumberger - one of the
leaders in the oil services field - turned in a strong performance. On
the negative end of the spectrum, Boeing was disappointing because the
company was unable to ramp up production profitably. The fund no
longer owned this position at the end of the period. 
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
A. In the months ahead, I expect to continue to concentrate on those
sectors of the economy that typically offer the most growth
opportunities - technology, retail and health care. I plan to
concentrate on those subsectors of these larger groups that offer the
best earnings outlook relative to the price of a company's stock. In
addition, I will supplement this basic focus with holdings outside of
these areas in stocks with special situations or superior earnings
potential. I continue to look for new growth areas in the economy and
emerging trends. 
Finally, I will look to invest in growth stocks within cyclical
industries when the business cycle is appropriate.

JENNIFER UHRIG ON ASIAN STOCK 
MARKET TURBULENCE AND U.S. 
TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES:
"The turbulence we saw in the 
financial markets in Southeast 
Asia during the second half of 1997 
- - and its immediate impact on 
the earnings of some U.S. 
corporations - demonstrate the 
link between economies around 
the world. In particular, the Asian 
crisis has created a lot of 
uncertainty for U.S. technology 
companies. Southeast Asia has 
been a very high growth area for 
personal computers and related 
electronic products. Slower 
economic growth in this corner of 
the world may hurt demand in the 
future. On the other hand, many 
U.S. technology companies buy 
components and even finished 
goods in the Far East. Weaker 
currencies make products 
manufactured in these countries 
cheaper to build and lower the cost 
of goods for U.S. companies. This 
may enable U.S. companies to 
lower prices and stimulate 
demand for their products outside 
of the Far East. Another positive is 
that Asian competitors may have 
less access to capital in the future 
and may not be able to find funding 
to increase capacity. Supply 
increases in the Far East have been 
a perennial problem for U.S. tech 
companies - especially 
semiconductor manufacturers - 
because additional supply puts 
pressure on prices. To the extent 
that less Asian capacity is added 
in the future, this could be a 
positive for U.S. companies in the 
longer-term."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended November 30, 1997
 
 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Advisor Equity Growth Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity
Advisor Series I (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited
number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management
investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.
The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional
Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting
privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its
distribution plan. The fund commenced sale of Class C shares on
November 3, 1997. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital
gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain
fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata
basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to
the total net assets of the fund. Each class of shares differs in its
respective distribution, transfer agent, registration, and certain
other class-specific fees, expenses, and expense reductions.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles which permit management to
make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial
statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting
policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are
readily available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale
price, at the closing bid price. Securities for which exchange
quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt
securities which trade on an exchange) are valued primarily using
dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair value as determined in
good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general
supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities with
remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are
not readily available are valued at amortized cost or original cost
plus accrued interest, both of which approximate current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Income
receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the
prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates of the transactions.
Purchases and sales of securities are translated into U.S. dollars at
the contractual currency exchange rates established at the time of
each trade.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions
represent net gains and losses from sales and maturities of foreign
currency contracts , disposition of foreign currencies, and the
difference between the amount of net investment income accrued 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION - CONTINUED
and the U.S. dollar amount actually received. The effects of changes
in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are
included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on
investment securities.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to
U.S. federal income taxes to the extent that it distributes
substantially all of its taxable income for its fiscal year. The fund
may be subject to foreign taxes on income and gains on investments
which are accrued based upon the fund's understanding of the tax rules
and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests. The
fund accrues such taxes as applicable. The schedule of investments
includes information regarding income taxes under the caption "Income
Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the
ex-dividend date may have passed, are recorded as soon as the fund is
informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in
dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the
securities received. Interest income is accrued as earned. Investment
income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of
such taxes is uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a
fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned
between the funds in the trust.
PREPAID EXPENSES. Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) bears
all organizational expenses except for registering and qualifying
Class B and Class C and shares of Class B and Class C for distribution
under federal and state securities law. These expenses are borne by
Class B and Class C and amortized over one year.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are
declared separately for each class.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. These differences, which may result in
distribution reclassifications, are primarily due to differing
treatments for litigation proceeds, foreign currency transactions,
passive foreign investment companies (PFIC) and losses deferred due to
wash sales. The fund also utilized earnings and profits distributed to
shareholders on redemption of shares as a part of the dividends paid
deduction for income tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital.
Undistributed net investment income and accumulated undistributed net
realized gain (loss) on investments and foreign currency transactions
may include temporary book and tax basis differences that will reverse
in a subsequent 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS - CONTINUED
period. Any taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal year end is
distributed in the following year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of
trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the
basis of identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The fund generally uses foreign currency
contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated
securities. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign
currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts'
terms. The U.S. dollar value of foreign currency contracts is
determined using contractual currency exchange rates established at
the time of each trade. The cost of the foreign currency contracts is
included in the cost basis of the associated investment.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund, along with other
affiliated entities of FMR, may transfer uninvested cash balances into
one or more joint trading accounts. These balances are invested in one
or more repurchase agreements for U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency
obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The underlying U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency
securities are transferred to an account of the fund, or to the Joint
Trading Account, at a bank custodian. The securities are
marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the
principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued
interest). FMR, the fund's investment adviser, is responsible for
determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in
accordance with the market value requirements stated above. 
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS. 
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $5,118,910,000 and $5,217,478,000, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. 
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a
monthly fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a
fixed individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of
the fund. The group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of
rates and is based on the monthly average net assets of all the mutual
funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .2500% to .5200% for the
period. The annual individual fund 
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
MANAGEMENT FEE - CONTINUED
fee rate is .30%. In the event that these rates were lower than the
contractual rates in effect during the period, FMR voluntarily
implemented the above rates, as they resulted in the same or a lower
management fee. For the period, the management fee was equivalent to
an annual rate of .60% of average net assets.
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the
1940 Act, the Trustees have adopted separate distribution plans with
respect to each class of shares (collectively referred to as "the
Plans"). Under certain of the Plans, the class pays Fidelity
Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a distribution
and service fee. This fee is based on the following annual rates of
the average net assets of each applicable class:
CLASS A     .25%      
 
CLASS T     .50%      
 
CLASS B     1.00% *   
 
CLASS C     1.00% *   
 
* .75% REPRESENTS A DISTRIBUTION FEE AND .25% REPRESENTS A SHAREHOLDER
SERVICE FEE.
For the period, each class paid FDC the following amounts, a portion
of which was paid to securities dealers, banks and other financial
institutions for the distribution of each class' applicable shares,
and providing shareholder support services:
           PAID TO        DEALERS'       
           FDC            PORTION

CLASS B     290,000        73,000        
 
CLASS C     375            -             
 
           $ 19,624,375   $ 19,407,000   
 
Under the Plans, FMR or FDC may use its resources to pay
administrative and promotional expenses related to the sale of each
class' shares. The Plans also authorize payments to third parties that
assist in the sale of each class' shares or render shareholder support
services. 
SALES LOAD. FDC receives a front-end sales charge of up to 5.75% for
selling Class A shares (5.25% prior to August 1, 1997), and 3.50% for
selling Class T shares of the fund, respectively. FDC receives the
proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges levied on Class B share
redemptions occurring within six years of purchase and Class C share
redemptions occurring within one year of purchase. Contingent deferred
sales charges are based on declining rates ranging from 5% to 1% for
Class B and 1% for Class C, of the lesser of the

SALES LOAD - CONTINUED
cost of shares at the initial date of purchase or the net asset value
of the redeemed shares, excluding any reinvested dividends and capital
gains.
For the period, FDC received the following sales charge amounts
related to each class, a portion of which is paid to securities
dealers, banks, and other financial institutions:
           PAID TO       DEALERS'      
           FDC           PORTION       
 
CLASS A    $ 516,000     $ 353,000

           $ 3,130,000   $ 2,137,000   
 
* WHEN CLASS B SHARES ARE INITIALLY SOLD, FDC PAYS COMMISSIONS FROM
ITS OWN RESOURCES TO DEALERS THROUGH WHICH
  THE SALES ARE MADE.
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Each class of the fund has entered into a
separate transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing
agent (collectively referred to as the Transfer Agents) contract with
respect to its shares. The Transfer Agents receive account fees and
asset-based fees that vary according to the account size and type of
account of the shareholders of the respective classes of the fund.
FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of all shareholder
reports. For the period, the following amounts were paid to each
transfer agent:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
 
To the Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Series I and the Shareholders of
Fidelity Advisor Equity Growth Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities
of Fidelity Advisor Series I: Fidelity Advisor Equity Growth Fund,
including the schedule of portfolio investments, as of November 30,
1997, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended,
the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in
the period then ended and the financial highlights of Class A, Class
T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional Class for each of the periods
indicated therein. These financial statements and financial highlights
are the responsibility of the fund's management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial
highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 1997 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Fidelity Advisor Series I: Fidelity Advisor
Equity Growth Fund as of November 30, 1997, the results of its
operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for
each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial
highlights of Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional
Class for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although financial turmoil in Pacific Basin countries was a catalyst
for significant volatility in U.S. markets in late October and into
November, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index has risen more than 31%
year-to-date, almost three times its historical annual average.
Meanwhile, bond markets - primarily influenced by a relatively steady
flow of positive news on the inflation front - continued to post solid
returns through the first 11 months of 1997.
While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets
with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that
can help investors plan for their future needs.
First, investors are encouraged to take a long-term view of their
portfolios. If you can afford to leave your money invested through the
inevitable up and down cycles of the financial markets, you will
greatly reduce your vulnerability to any single decline. We know from
experience, for example, that stock prices have gone up over longer
periods of time, have significantly outperformed other types of
investments and have stayed ahead of inflation. 
Second, you can further manage your investing risk through
diversification. A stock mutual fund, for instance, is already
diversified, because it invests in many different companies. You can
increase your diversification further by investing in a number of
different stock funds, or in such other investment categories as
bonds. If you have a short investment time horizon, you might want to
consider moving some of your investment into a money market fund,
which seeks income and a stable share price by investing in
high-quality, short-term investments. Of course, it's important to
remember that there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal of maintaining a stable net asset value of $1.00 per
share, and that these types of funds are neither insured nor
guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a
certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or
quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing
so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising
market, nor will you buy all your shares at market highs. While this
strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - won't assure a profit or
protect you from a loss in a declining market, it should help you
lower the average cost of your purchases.
Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with
your investments.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d

PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual
percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment.
Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment,
assuming reinvestment of the class' dividend income and capital gains
(the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in
value).

CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show Institutional Class' performance in
percentage terms over a set period - in this case, one year, five
years or 10 years. For example, if you had invested $1,000 in a fund
that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your investment
would be $1,050. You can compare Institutional Class' returns to the
performance of the Standard & Poor's 500 Index - a widely recognized,
unmanaged index of common stocks. To measure how Institutional Class'
performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the
growth funds average, which reflects the performance of mutual funds
with similar objectives tracked by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc.
The past one year average represents a peer group of 791 mutual funds.
These benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if
any, and exclude the effect of sales charges.

$10,000 OVER 10 YEARS: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Fidelity Advisor Equity Growth - Institutional Class on
November 30, 1987. As the chart shows, by November 30, 1997, the value
of the investment would have grown to $89,906 - a 799.06% increase on
the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the S&P 500 did
over the same period. With dividends and capital gains, if any,
reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to $55,623 -
a 456.23% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is 
no guarantee of how it will do 
tomorrow. The stock market, 
for example, has a history of 
long-term growth and 
short-term volatility. In turn, the 
share price and return of a 
fund that invests in stocks will 
vary. That means if you sell 
your shares during a market 
downturn, you might lose 
money. But if you can ride out 
the market's ups and downs, 
you may have a gain.

MARKET RECAP
The 12 months that ended 
November 30, 1997, was a period 
that truly tested the U.S. stock 
market's resolve. But despite 
frequent shifts in sentiment, an 
interest-rate hike and global 
volatility concerns, U.S. stocks still 
managed to perform well. The 
Standard & Poor's 500 Index - a 
broad gauge of the U.S. stock 
market - returned 28.51% during 
the period, well above the 
market's long-term annual 
average of around 11%. In the first 
half of the period, large-cap stocks 
were responsible for much of the 
market's gain, as investors were 
drawn to stocks with recognizable 
names and consistent 
earnings-growth track records. 
Consequently, stock prices soared 
and enthusiasm was high. The 
Federal Reserve Board - in an 
attempt to halt inflation before it 
appeared - raised a key 
short-term interest rate by 0.25% 
in March. The market paused 
briefly, but then kept rolling as the 
Dow Jones Industrial Average 
reached the 8,000-point mark for 
the first time ever in August. With 
several multinational companies 
announcing earnings shortfalls in 
mid-August, small-cap stocks 
came into favor among investors. 
During August and September, 
the Russell 2000 Index - which 
measures small-cap stock 
performance - was up 9.78% 
while the S&P was down 0.43%. 
Volatility in Asian markets in late 
October sent skittish investors 
running for cover. The Dow slid 
554 points in one day, then 
snapped back the next, reclaiming 
330-plus points. Sensing 
continued fallout from this 
volatility, investors again became 
quality-conscious and large-caps 
regained their perch through 
November.
An interview with Jennifer Uhrig, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity
Advisor Equity Growth Fund
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, JENNIFER?
A. For the 12 months that ended November 30, 1997, the fund's
Institutional Class shares returned 20.46%.The growth funds average
returned 22.00% during this time, according to Lipper Analytical
Services. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index had a 12-month return of
28.51%.
Q. WHY DID THE FUND UNDERPERFORM BOTH ITS PEER GROUP AND THE S&P 500
DURING THE PERIOD?
A. The fund was hurt by poor stock selection within the technology
sector. While the fund was overweighted in technology stocks relative
to the S&P 500 - and the group outperformed the market slightly for
the total period - this outperformance was concentrated among a few
large names. The average mid-cap and small-cap tech stock
underperformed the market significantly. In particular, the fund was
hurt by its exposure to networking stocks, which lagged the market in
the first quarter. Additionally, not owning enough financial
services-related stocks also detracted from performance. I decided not
to overweight this sector since financial services is not a growth
area, and is not typically a focus for an aggressive growth fund. I
also believed that it was late in the business cycle to be overly
exposed to this highly cyclical group. In retrospect, this was a
mistake because these stocks performed well.
Q. SINCE YOU TOOK OVER THE FUND IN JANUARY 1997, WHAT MAJOR CHANGES
HAVE YOU MADE AND WHY?
A. The main changes I made were to reduce the number of positions in
the fund and make the top holdings more concentrated. By doing so, I
was able to invest more heavily in my best ideas. I've also decreased
the fund's cash position by adding to existing holdings. At the end of
the period, the fund's top 10 positions accounted for about one-fourth
of the fund's investments versus around 19% at the beginning of the
period. In addition, I increased the fund's health-care holdings,
particularly in pharmaceutical stocks. While we're looking at 12-month
performance in this report, I would point out that three of the fund's
four share classes beat their peer group returns over the second half 
of the period. It took a while to see the effects of these changes,
but recent performance indicates that these strategies may be working.
Q. CAN YOU HIGHLIGHT A FEW STOCKS THAT PERFORMED WELL? ANY
DISAPPOINTMENTS?
A. Microsoft - the fund's second-largest position as of November 30 -
was a very strong contributor to performance. Microsoft had a terrific
first half of the year, with earnings exceeding expectations due to
better-than-expected sales of its applications products. While the
stock has treaded water in the second half of the year, the company
looks well-positioned to benefit from new platform products in 1998.
Some of the fund's retail and energy service stocks also contributed
positively. Wal-Mart, for example, improved its balance sheet, shrunk
inventories and bought back stock, while Schlumberger - one of the
leaders in the oil services field - turned in a strong performance. On
the negative end of the spectrum, Boeing was disappointing because the
company was unable to ramp up production profitably. The fund no
longer owned this position at the end of the period. 
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
A. In the months ahead, I expect to continue to concentrate on those
sectors of the economy that typically offer the most growth
opportunities - technology, retail and health care. I plan to
concentrate on those subsectors of these larger groups that offer the
best earnings outlook relative to the price of a company's stock. In
addition, I will supplement this basic focus with holdings outside of
these areas in stocks with special situations or superior earnings
potential. I continue to look for new growth areas in the economy and
emerging trends. Finally, I will look to invest in growth stocks
within cyclical industries when the business cycle is appropriate.

JENNIFER UHRIG ON ASIAN STOCK 
MARKET TURBULENCE AND U.S. 
TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES:
"The turbulence we saw in the 
financial markets in Southeast 
Asia during the second half of 1997 
- - and its immediate impact on 
the earnings of some U.S. 
corporations - demonstrate the 
link between economies around 
the world. In particular, the Asian 
crisis has created a lot of 
uncertainty for U.S. technology 
companies. Southeast Asia has 
been a very high growth area for 
personal computers and related 
electronic products. Slower 
economic growth in this corner of 
the world may hurt demand in the 
future. On the other hand, many 
U.S. technology companies buy 
components and even finished 
goods in the Far East. Weaker 
currencies make products 
manufactured in these countries 
cheaper to build and lower the cost 
of goods for U.S. companies. This 
may enable U.S. companies to 
lower prices and stimulate 
demand for their products outside 
of the Far East. Another positive is 
that Asian competitors may have 
less access to capital in the future 
and may not be able to find funding 
to increase capacity. Supply 
increases in the Far East have been 
a perennial problem for U.S. tech 
companies - especially 
semiconductor manufacturers - 
because additional supply puts 
pressure on prices. To the extent 
that less Asian capacity is added 
in the future, this could be a 
positive for U.S. companies in the 
longer-term."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended November 30, 1997
 
 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Advisor Equity Growth Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity
Advisor Series I (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited
number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management
investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.
The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional
Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting
privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its
distribution plan. The fund commenced sale of Class C shares on
November 3, 1997. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital
gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain
fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata
basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to
the total net assets of the fund. Each class of shares differs in its
respective distribution, transfer agent, registration, and certain
other class-specific fees, expenses, and expense reductions.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles which permit management to
make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial
statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting
policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are
readily available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale
price, at the closing bid price. Securities for which exchange
quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt
securities which trade on an exchange) are valued primarily using
dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair value as determined in
good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general
supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities with
remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are
not readily available are valued at amortized cost or original cost
plus accrued interest, both of which approximate current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Income
receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the
prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates of the transactions.
Purchases and sales of securities are translated into U.S. dollars at
the contractual currency exchange rates established at the time of
each trade.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions
represent net gains and losses from sales and maturities of foreign
currency contracts , disposition of foreign currencies, and the
difference between the amount of net investment income accrued 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION - CONTINUED
and the U.S. dollar amount actually received. The effects of changes
in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are
included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on
investment securities.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to
U.S. federal income taxes to the extent that it distributes
substantially all of its taxable income for its fiscal year. The fund
may be subject to foreign taxes on income and gains on investments
which are accrued based upon the fund's understanding of the tax rules
and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests. The
fund accrues such taxes as applicable. The schedule of investments
includes information regarding income taxes under the caption "Income
Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the
ex-dividend date may have passed, are recorded as soon as the fund is
informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in
dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the
securities received. Interest income is accrued as earned. Investment
income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of
such taxes is uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a
fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned
between the funds in the trust.
PREPAID EXPENSES. Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) bears
all organizational expenses except for registering and qualifying
Class B and Class C and shares of Class B and Class C for distribution
under federal and state securities law. These expenses are borne by
Class B and Class C and amortized over one year.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are
declared separately for each class.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. These differences, which may result in
distribution reclassifications, are primarily due to differing
treatments for litigation proceeds, foreign currency transactions,
passive foreign investment companies (PFIC) and losses deferred due to
wash sales. The fund also utilized earnings and profits distributed to
shareholders on redemption of shares as a part of the dividends paid
deduction for income tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital.
Undistributed net investment income and accumulated undistributed net
realized gain (loss) on investments and foreign currency transactions
may include temporary book and tax basis differences that will reverse
in a subsequent 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS - CONTINUED
period. Any taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal year end is
distributed in the following year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of
trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the
basis of identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The fund generally uses foreign currency
contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated
securities. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign
currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts'
terms. The U.S. dollar value of foreign currency contracts is
determined using contractual currency exchange rates established at
the time of each trade. The cost of the foreign currency contracts is
included in the cost basis of the associated investment.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund, along with other
affiliated entities of FMR, may transfer uninvested cash balances into
one or more joint trading accounts. These balances are invested in one
or more repurchase agreements for U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency
obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The underlying U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency
securities are transferred to an account of the fund, or to the Joint
Trading Account, at a bank custodian. The securities are
marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the
principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued
interest). FMR, the fund's investment adviser, is responsible for
determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in
accordance with the market value requirements stated above. 
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS. 
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $5,118,910,000 and $5,217,478,000, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. 
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a
monthly fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a
fixed individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of
the fund. The group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of
rates and is based on the monthly average net assets of all the mutual
funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .2500% to .5200% for the
period. The annual individual fund 
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
MANAGEMENT FEE - CONTINUED
fee rate is .30%. In the event that these rates were lower than the
contractual rates in effect during the period, FMR voluntarily
implemented the above rates, as they resulted in the same or a lower
management fee. For the period, the management fee was equivalent to
an annual rate of .60% of average net assets.
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the
1940 Act, the Trustees have adopted separate distribution plans with
respect to each class of shares (collectively referred to as "the
Plans"). Under certain of the Plans, the class pays Fidelity
Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a distribution
and service fee. This fee is based on the following annual rates of
the average net assets of each applicable class:
CLASS A     .25%      
 
CLASS T     .50%      
 
CLASS B     1.00% *   
 
CLASS C     1.00% *   
 
* .75% REPRESENTS A DISTRIBUTION FEE AND .25% REPRESENTS A SHAREHOLDER
SERVICE FEE.
For the period, each class paid FDC the following amounts, a portion
of which was paid to securities dealers, banks and other financial
institutions for the distribution of each class' applicable shares,
and providing shareholder support services:
           PAID TO        DEALERS'       
           FDC            PORTION        
 
CLASS A    $ 36,000       $ 36,000       
 
CLASS T     19,298,000     19,298,000    
 
CLASS B     290,000        73,000        
 
CLASS C     375            -             
 
           $ 19,624,375   $ 19,407,000   
 
Under the Plans, FMR or FDC may use its resources to pay
administrative and promotional expenses related to the sale of each
class' shares. The Plans also authorize payments to third parties that
assist in the sale of each class' shares or render shareholder support
services.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
 
To the Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Series I and the Shareholders of
Fidelity Advisor Equity Growth Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities
of Fidelity Advisor Series I: Fidelity Advisor Equity Growth Fund,
including the schedule of portfolio investments, as of November 30,
1997, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended,
the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in
the period then ended and the financial highlights of Class A, Class
T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional Class for each of the periods
indicated therein. These financial statements and financial highlights
are the responsibility of the fund's management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial
highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 1997 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Fidelity Advisor Series I: Fidelity Advisor
Equity Growth Fund as of November 30, 1997, the results of its
operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for
each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial
highlights of Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional
Class for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although financial turmoil in Pacific Basin countries was a catalyst
for significant volatility in U.S. markets in late October and into
November, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index has risen more than 31%
year-to-date, almost three times its historical annual average.
Meanwhile, bond markets - primarily influenced by a relatively steady
flow of positive news on the inflation front - continued to post solid
returns through the first 11 months of 1997.
While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets
with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that
can help investors plan for their future needs.
First, investors are encouraged to take a long-term view of their
portfolios. If you can afford to leave your money invested through the
inevitable up and down cycles of the financial markets, you will
greatly reduce your vulnerability to any single decline. We know from
experience, for example, that stock prices have gone up over longer
periods of time, have significantly outperformed other types of
investments and have stayed ahead of inflation. 
Second, you can further manage your investing risk through
diversification. A stock mutual fund, for instance, is already
diversified, because it invests in many different companies. You can
increase your diversification further by investing in a number of
different stock funds, or in such other investment categories as
bonds. If you have a short investment time horizon, you might want to
consider moving some of your investment into a money market fund,
which seeks income and a stable share price by investing in
high-quality, short-term investments. Of course, it's important to
remember that there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal of maintaining a stable net asset value of $1.00 per
share, and that these types of funds are neither insured nor
guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a
certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or
quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing
so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising
market, nor will you buy all your shares at market highs. While this
strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - won't assure a profit or
protect you from a loss in a declining market, it should help you
lower the average cost of your purchases.
Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with
your investments.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
ADVISOR TECHNOQUANT GROWTH FUND - CLASS A
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual
percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment.
Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment,
assuming reinvestment of the class' dividend income and capital gains
(the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in
value). Effective August 1, 1997, the maximum 5.25% sales charge on
Class A shares was increased to 5.75%. If Fidelity had not reimbursed
certain class expenses, the total return would have been lower.

PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is 
no guarantee of how it will do 
tomorrow. The stock market, 
for example, has a history of 
long-term growth and 
short-term volatility. In turn, the 
share price and return of a 
fund that invests in stocks will 
vary. That means if you sell 
your shares during a market 
downturn, you might lose 
money. But if you can ride out 
the market's ups and downs, 
you may have a gain.

3, 1997. Class C shares bear a 1.00% 12b-1/shareholder service fee
that is reflected in returns after November 3, 1997. Returns prior to
November 3, 1997 are those of Class B shares and reflect Class B
shares' 1.00% 12b-1/shareholder service fee. Class C's contingent

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Fidelity Advisor TechnoQuant Growth - Class C on December
31, 1996, when the fund started. As the chart shows, by November 30,
1997, the value of the investment, including the effect of the
applicable contingent deferred sales charge, would have grown to
$11,212 - a 12.12% increase on the initial investment. For comparison,
look at how the S&P 500 did over the same period. With dividends
reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to $13,111 -
a 31.11% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is 
no guarantee of how it will do 
tomorrow. The stock market, 
for example, has a history of 
long-term growth and 
short-term volatility. In turn, the 
share price and return of a 
fund that invests in stocks will 
vary. That means if you sell 
your shares during a market 
downturn, you might lose 
money. But if you can ride out 
the market's ups and downs, 
you may have a gain.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
 
 
 
MARKET RECAP
The 12 months that ended 
November 30, 1997, was a period 
that truly tested the U.S. stock 
market's resolve. But despite 
frequent shifts in sentiment, an 
interest-rate hike and global 
volatility concerns, U.S. stocks still 
managed to perform well. The 
Standard & Poor's 500 Index - a 
broad gauge of the U.S. stock 
market - returned 28.51% during 
the period, well above the 
market's long-term annual 
average of around 11%. In the first 
half of the period, large-cap stocks 
were responsible for much of the 
market's gain, as investors were 
drawn to stocks with recognizable 
names and consistent 
earnings-growth track records. 
Consequently, stock prices soared 
and enthusiasm was high. The 
Federal Reserve Board - in an 
attempt to halt inflation before it 
appeared - raised a key 
short-term interest rate by 0.25% 
in March. The market paused 
briefly, but then kept rolling as the 
Dow Jones Industrial Average 
reached the 8,000-point mark for 
the first time ever in August. With 
several multinational companies 
announcing earnings shortfalls in 
mid-August, small-cap stocks 
came into favor among investors. 
During August and September, 
the Russell 2000 Index - which 
measures small-cap stock 
performance - was up 9.78% 
while the S&P was down 0.43%. 
Volatility in Asian markets in late 
October sent skittish investors 
running for cover. The Dow slid 
554 points in one day, then 
snapped back the next, reclaiming 
330-plus points. Sensing 
continued fallout from this 
volatility, investors again became 
quality-conscious and large-caps 
regained their perch through 
November.
An interview with Tim Krochuk, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Advisor
TechnoQuant Growth Fund
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, TIM?
A. Since its inception on December 31, 1996, through November 30,
1997, the fund's Class A, Class T, Class B and Class C shares had
total returns of 13.80%, 13.60%, 13.10% and 13.12%, respectively.
During the same period, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index returned
31.11%.
Q. WHY DID THE FUND UNDERPERFORM THE INDEX?
A. The fund's tilt toward mid-capitalization stocks hurt performance.
For the three years that ended March 1997, large-cap stocks markedly
outperformed all other stocks. As a result, the fund dramatically
underperformed the S&P 500 index through April. During the next
several months, however, momentum veered away from large-cap stocks as
investors started buying more small- and mid-cap stocks. Many of the
largest-cap companies in the S&P 500 index were trading at extremely
high valuation levels and investors saw opportunities to buy
smaller-cap companies that hadn't yet reached peak valuations relative
to their earnings growth. At that point, the fund's performance picked
up as the market breadth improved. However, that turn of fortune did
not last long. At the end of October, the turmoil in Southeast Asia
sent many investors into a panic. Many of them, particularly foreign
investors, rushed back into large-cap stocks, considering the big
names such as General Electric and IBM as "safe havens." Therefore,
the fund's performance lagged in late October and November, when the
market narrowed significantly.
Q. WHAT OTHER FACTORS AFFECTED THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE?
A. The fund's quantitative models predicted that volatility would
increase throughout the year. This information encouraged me to
position the fund defensively. I believe this strategy was a real plus
when we encountered higher levels of volatility. 
Q. BUT ISN'T ADVISOR TECHNOQUANT SUPPOSED TO BE AN AGGRESSIVE EQUITY
FUND?
A. Positioning an aggressive fund defensively may sound
counter-intuitive, but it's not. When I talk about Advisor TechnoQuant
in terms of being aggressive or defensive, I am referring to its
concentration on sectors and individual equities. At the end of the
period, about 58% of the fund's assets were spread out across five
sectors. In addition, each of the fund's top 30 stocks, on average,
represented only about 1.2% of the fund. This was a defensive position
relative to what Advisor TechnoQuant can do. For example, the fund
could own 50 equities concentrated in just three sectors. That would
be aggressive. Since most people think of defensive positioning as a
move out of stocks and into cash, I want to stress that the fund
remains about 95% invested in equities. By that measure, it is still
an aggressive equity fund.
Q. WHICH HOLDINGS HELPED PERFORMANCE?
WHICH WERE DISAPPOINTMENTS?
A. Energy service stocks, such as BJ Services and Halliburton, helped
the fund's performance during much of the period. These companies have
fleets of rigs used for deep-water drilling, and the supply of rigs in
the overall market has been fairly low. This capacity constraint
allowed energy service companies to charge higher daily rental rates
for their rigs - jump-starting their stocks. However, the stocks lost
some ground in November, detracting from performance. The sector that
hurt the fund the most was health care. The worst performer in this
sector was Oxford Health Plans. The company's stock plummeted more
than 60% in one day after the company announced that an accounting
error had caused it to severely misstate its quarterly earnings.
Following my models, I reduced the exposure to the stock by more than
50% before it took a hit that day, but the small position the fund
held after that still hurt performance. I sold the fund's position in
Oxford Health by the end of the period. Boston Scientific, Interneuron
Pharmaceuticals and U.S. Diagnostic were other health care stocks that
detracted from performance, although the effects were minimal since
the fund sold its investments in Interneuron Pharmaceuticals and U.S.
Diagnostic by the end of the period.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
A.  A combination of some of the more predictive technical cycles
indicates that, after a little more downside, we should see the market
consolidate with a slight upward drift into the first quarter of 1998.
More importantly, I expect the levels of volatility that we are seeing
now to continue for a while. Having said that, let me stress that time
- - and not timing - has been the key to making money in the stock
market. Historically, the market has logged more "up" months than
"down" months, so if an investor tries to time the market by getting
out and back in again, the odds are that the investor will be out of
the market during an "up" month. This is especially important to
remember during a volatile environment like the one we saw at the end
of the period. Investors in Advisor TechnoQuant should plan to stay
invested for at least two or three years. I've said it before and I'll
say it again, time - and not timing - is the key to success in the
financial markets.

JENNIFER UHRIG ON ASIAN STOCK 
MARKET TURBULENCE AND U.S. 
TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES:
"The turbulence we saw in the 
financial markets in Southeast 
Asia during the second half of 1997 
- - and its immediate impact on 
the earnings of some U.S. 
corporations - demonstrate the 
link between economies around 
the world. In particular, the Asian 
crisis has created a lot of 
uncertainty for U.S. technology 
companies. Southeast Asia has 
been a very high growth area for 
personal computers and related 
electronic products. Slower 
economic growth in this corner of 
the world may hurt demand in the 
future. On the other hand, many 
U.S. technology companies buy 
components and even finished 
goods in the Far East. Weaker 
currencies make products 
manufactured in these countries 
cheaper to build and lower the cost 
of goods for U.S. companies. This 
may enable U.S. companies to 
lower prices and stimulate 
demand for their products outside 
of the Far East. Another positive is 
that Asian competitors may have 
less access to capital in the future 
and may not be able to find funding 
to increase capacity. Supply 
increases in the Far East have been 
a perennial problem for U.S. tech 
companies - especially 
semiconductor manufacturers - 
because additional supply puts 
pressure on prices. To the extent 
that less Asian capacity is added 
in the future, this could be a 
positive for U.S. companies in the 
longer-term."

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Advisor TechnoQuant Growth Fund (the fund) is a fund of
Fidelity Advisor Series I (the trust) and is authorized to issue an
unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an
open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts
business trust.
The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C and Institutional
Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting
privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its
distribution plan. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital
gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain
fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata
basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to
the total net assets of the fund. Each class of shares differs in its
respective distribution, transfer agent, registration, and certain
other class-specific fees, expenses, and expense reductions.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles which permit management to
make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial
statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting
policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are
readily available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale
price, at the closing bid price. Securities for which exchange
quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt
securities which trade on an exchange) are valued primarily using
dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair value as determined in
good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general
supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities with
remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are
not readily available are valued at amortized cost or original cost
plus accrued interest, both of which approximate current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Income
receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the
prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates of the transactions.
Purchases and sales of securities are translated into U.S. dollars at
the contractual currency exchange rates established at the time of
each trade.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions
represent net gains and losses from sales and maturities of foreign
currency contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, and the
difference between the amount of net investment income accrued 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION - CONTINUED
and the U.S. dollar amount actually received. The effects of changes
in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are
included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on
investment securities.
INCOME TAXES. The fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment
company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. By so
qualifying, the fund will not be subject to income taxes to the extent
that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for its
fiscal year. The schedule of investments includes information
regarding income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the
ex-dividend date may have passed, are recorded as soon as the fund is
informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in
dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the
securities received. Interest income, which includes accretion of
original issue discount is accrued as earned. Investment income is
recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is
uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of each trust can be directly attributed to a
fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned
between the funds in the trust.
PREPAID EXPENSES. Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) bears
all organizational expenses except for registering and qualifying each
class and shares of each class for distribution under federal and
state securities law. These expenses are borne by each class and
amortized over one year.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are
declared separately for each class. 
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. These differences may result in distribution
reclassifications.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital.
Accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments and
foreign currency transactions may include temporary book and tax basis
differences that will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable gain
remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of
trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the
basis of identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The fund generally uses foreign currency
contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated
securities. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign
currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts'
terms. The U.S. dollar value of foreign currency contracts is
determined using contractual currency exchange rates established at
the time of each trade. The cost of the foreign currency contracts is
included in the cost basis of the associated investment.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the fund, along with
other affiliated entities of FMR, may transfer uninvested cash
balances into one or more joint trading accounts. These balances are
invested in one or more repurchase agreements for U.S. Treasury or
Federal Agency obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The underlying U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency
securities are transferred to an account of the fund, or to the Joint
Trading Account, at a bank custodian. The securities are
marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the
principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued
interest). FMR, the fund's investment adviser, is responsible for
determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in
accordance with the market value requirements stated above. 
TAXABLE CENTRAL CASH FUND. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by
the SEC, the fund may invest in the Taxable Central Cash Fund (the
Cash Fund) managed by FMR Texas, Inc., an affiliate of FMR. The Cash
Fund is an open-end money market fund available only to investment
companies and other accounts managed by FMR and its affiliates. The
Cash Fund seeks preservation of capital, liquidity and current income
by investing in U.S. Treasury securities and repurchase agreements for
these securities. Income distributions from the Cash Fund are declared
daily and paid monthly from net interest income. Income distributions
received by the fund are recorded as interest income in the
accompanying financial statements.
FUTURES CONTRACTS. The fund may use futures contracts to manage its
exposure to the stock market. Buying futures tends to increase the
fund's exposure to the underlying instrument, while selling futures
tends to decrease the fund's exposure to the underlying instrument or
hedge other fund investments. Losses may arise from changes in the
value of the underlying instruments or if the counterparties do not
perform under the contracts' terms. Gains (losses) are realized upon
the expiration or closing of the futures contracts. Futures contracts
are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board
of trade or exchange on which they are traded.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS. 
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $81,719,430 and $48,629,515, respectively.
The market value of futures contracts opened and closed during the
period amounted to $2,066,065 and $2,052,585, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. 
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a
monthly fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a
fixed individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of
the fund. The group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of
rates and is based on the monthly average net assets of all the mutual
funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .2500% to .5200% for the
period. The annual individual fund fee rate is .30%. In the event that
these rates were lower than the contractual rates in effect during the
period, FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted
in the same or a lower management fee. For the period, the management
fee was equivalent to an annualized rate of .60% of average net
assets.
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the
1940 Act, the Trustees have adopted separate distribution plans with
respect to each class of shares, (collectively referred to as "the
Plans"). Under certain of the Plans, the class pays Fidelity
Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a distribution
and service fee. This fee is based on the following annual rates of
the average net assets of each applicable class:
CLASS A     .25%      
 
CLASS T     .50%      
 
CLASS B     1.00% *   
 
CLASS C     1.00% *   
 
* .75% REPRESENTS A DISTRIBUTION FEE AND .25% REPRESENTS A SHAREHOLDER
SERVICE FEE.
For the period, each class paid FDC the following amounts, a portion
of which was paid to securities dealers, banks and other financial
institutions for the distribution of each class' applicable shares,
and providing shareholder support services:
           PAID TO     DEALERS'

           $ 127,689   $ 83,522   
 
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN - CONTINUED
Under the Plans, FMR or FDC may use its resources to pay
administrative and promotional expenses related to the sale of each
class' shares. The Plans also authorize payments to third parties that
assist in the sale of each class' shares or render shareholder support
services. 
SALES LOAD. FDC receives a front-end sales charge of up to 5.75% for
selling Class A shares (5.25% prior to August 1, 1997), and 3.50% for
selling Class T shares of the fund, respectively. FDC receives the
proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges levied on Class B share
redemptions occurring within six years of purchase and Class C share
redemptions occurring within one year of purchase. Contingent deferred
sales charges are based on declining rates ranging from 5% to 1% for
Class B and 1% for Class C, of the lesser of the cost of shares at the
initial date of purchase or the net asset value of the redeemed
shares, excluding any reinvested dividends and capital gains. 
For the period, FDC received the following sales charge amounts
related to each class, a portion of which is paid to securities
dealers, banks, and other financial institutions:
           PAID TO     DEALERS'   
           FDC         PORTION

4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Each class of the fund has entered into a
separate transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing
agent (collectively referred to as the Transfer Agents) contract with
respect to its shares. The Transfer Agents receive account fees and
asset-based fees that vary according to the account size and type of
account of the shareholders of the respective classes of the fund.
FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of all shareholder
reports except proxy statements. For the period, the following amounts
were paid to each transfer agent:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
 
To the Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Series I and the Shareholders of
Fidelity Advisor TechnoQuant Growth Fund:
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities,
including the schedule of investments, and the related statements of
operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Fidelity Advisor TechnoQuant Growth Fund (a fund of Fidelity Advisor
Series I) at November 30, 1997, and the results of its operations, the
changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for the periods
indicated, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. These financial statements and financial highlights
(hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of Fidelity Advisor TechnoQuant Growth Fund's
management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit of
these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit, which
included confirmation of securities at November 30, 1997 by
correspondence with the custodian and the application of alternative
auditing procedures where securities purchased were not yet received
by the custodian, provides a reasonable basis for the opinion
expressed above.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although financial turmoil in Pacific Basin countries was a catalyst
for significant volatility in U.S. markets in late October and into
November, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index has risen more than 31%
year-to-date, almost three times its historical annual average.
Meanwhile, bond markets - primarily influenced by a relatively steady
flow of positive news on the inflation front - continued to post solid
returns through the first 11 months of 1997.
While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets
with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that
can help investors plan for their future needs.
First, investors are encouraged to take a long-term view of their
portfolios. If you can afford to leave your money invested through the
inevitable up and down cycles of the financial markets, you will
greatly reduce your vulnerability to any single decline. We know from
experience, for example, that stock prices have gone up over longer
periods of time, have significantly outperformed other types of
investments and have stayed ahead of inflation. 
Second, you can further manage your investing risk through
diversification. A stock mutual fund, for instance, is already
diversified, because it invests in many different companies. You can
increase your diversification further by investing in a number of
different stock funds, or in such other investment categories as
bonds. If you have a short investment time horizon, you might want to
consider moving some of your investment into a money market fund,
which seeks income and a stable share price by investing in
high-quality, short-term investments. Of course, it's important to
remember that there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal of maintaining a stable net asset value of $1.00 per
share, and that these types of funds are neither insured nor
guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a
certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or
quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing
so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising
market, nor will you buy all your shares at market highs. While this
strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - won't assure a profit or
protect you from a loss in a declining market, it should help you
lower the average cost of your purchases.
Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with
your investments.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
ADVISOR TECHNOQUANT GROWTH FUND - INSTITUTIONAL CLASS
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual
percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment.
Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment,
assuming reinvestment of the class' dividend income and capital gains
(the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in
value). If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the
total return would have been lower.

S&P 500 (REGISTERED TRADEMARK)                     31.11%    
 
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show Institutional Class' performance in
percentage terms over a set period - in this case, since the fund
started on December 31, 1996. For example, if you had invested $1,000
in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your
investment would be $1,050. You can compare Institutional Class'
returns to those of the Standard & Poor's 500 Index - a widely
recognized, unmanaged index of common stocks. This benchmark includes
reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and excludes the
effect of sales charges.
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS take Institutional Class' cumulative
return and show you what would have happened if Institutional Class'
had performed at a constant rate each year. These numbers will be
reported once the fund is a year old.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Fidelity Advisor TechnoQuant Growth - Institutional Class
on December 31, 1996, when the fund started. As the chart shows, by
November 30, 1997, the value of the investment would have grown to
$11,400 - a 14.00% increase on the initial investment. For comparison,
look at how the S&P 500 did over the same period. With dividends
reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to $13,111 -
a 31.11% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is 
no guarantee of how it will do 
tomorrow. The stock market, 
for example, has a history of 
long-term growth and 
short-term volatility. In turn, the 
share price and return of a 
fund that invests in stocks will 
vary. That means if you sell 
your shares during a market 
downturn, you might lose 
money. But if you can ride out 
the market's ups and downs, 
you may have a gain.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
 
 
 
MARKET RECAP
The 12 months that ended 
November 30, 1997, was a period 
that truly tested the U.S. stock 
market's resolve. But despite 
frequent shifts in sentiment, an 
interest-rate hike and global 
volatility concerns, U.S. stocks still 
managed to perform well. The 
Standard & Poor's 500 Index - a 
broad gauge of the U.S. stock 
market - returned 28.51% during 
the period, well above the 
market's long-term annual 
average of around 11%. In the first 
half of the period, large-cap stocks 
were responsible for much of the 
market's gain, as investors were 
drawn to stocks with recognizable 
names and consistent 
earnings-growth track records. 
Consequently, stock prices soared 
and enthusiasm was high. The 
Federal Reserve Board - in an 
attempt to halt inflation before it 
appeared - raised a key 
short-term interest rate by 0.25% 
in March. The market paused 
briefly, but then kept rolling as the 
Dow Jones Industrial Average 
reached the 8,000-point mark for 
the first time ever in August. With 
several multinational companies 
announcing earnings shortfalls in 
mid-August, small-cap stocks 
came into favor among investors. 
During August and September, 
the Russell 2000 Index - which 
measures small-cap stock 
performance - was up 9.78% 
while the S&P was down 0.43%. 
Volatility in Asian markets in late 
October sent skittish investors 
running for cover. The Dow slid 
554 points in one day, then 
snapped back the next, reclaiming 
330-plus points. Sensing 
continued fallout from this 
volatility, investors again became 
quality-conscious and large-caps 
regained their perch through 
November.
An interview with Tim Krochuk, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Advisor
TechnoQuant Growth Fund
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, TIM?
A. Since its inception on December 31, 1996, through November 30,
1997, the fund's Institutional Class shares had a total return of
14.00%. During the same period, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index
returned 31.11%.
Q. WHY DID THE FUND UNDERPERFORM THE INDEX?
A. The fund's tilt toward mid-capitalization stocks hurt performance.
For the three years that ended March 1997, large-cap stocks markedly
outperformed all other stocks. As a result, the fund dramatically
underperformed the S&P 500 index through April. During the next
several months, however, momentum veered away from large-cap stocks as
investors started buying more small- and mid-cap stocks. Many of the
largest-cap companies in the S&P 500 index were trading at extremely
high valuation levels and investors saw opportunities to buy
smaller-cap companies that hadn't yet reached peak valuations relative
to their earnings growth. At that point, the fund's performance picked
up as the market breadth improved. However, that turn of fortune did
not last long. At the end of October, the turmoil in Southeast Asia
sent many investors into a panic. Many of them, particularly foreign
investors, rushed back into large-cap stocks, considering the big
names such as General Electric and IBM as "safe havens." Therefore,
the fund's performance lagged in late October and November, when the
market narrowed significantly.
Q. WHAT OTHER FACTORS AFFECTED THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE?
A. The fund's quantitative models predicted that volatility would
increase throughout the year. This information encouraged me to
position the fund defensively. I believe this strategy was a real plus
when we encountered higher levels of volatility. 
Q. BUT ISN'T ADVISOR TECHNOQUANT SUPPOSED TO BE AN AGGRESSIVE EQUITY
FUND?
A. Positioning an aggressive fund defensively may sound
counter-intuitive, but it's not. When I talk about Advisor TechnoQuant
in terms of being aggressive or defensive, I am referring to its
concentration on sectors and individual equities. At the end of the
period, about 58% of the fund's assets were spread out across five
sectors. In addition, each of the fund's top 30 stocks, on average,
represented only about 1.2% of the fund. This was a defensive position
relative to what Advisor TechnoQuant can do. For example, the fund
could own 50 equities concentrated in just three sectors. That would
be aggressive. Since most people think of defensive positioning as a
move out of stocks and into cash, I want to stress that the fund
remains about 95% invested in equities. By that measure, it is still
an aggressive equity fund.
Q. WHICH HOLDINGS HELPED PERFORMANCE?
WHICH WERE DISAPPOINTMENTS?
A. Energy service stocks, such as BJ Services and Halliburton, helped
the fund's performance during much of the period. These companies have
fleets of rigs used for deep-water drilling, and the supply of rigs in
the overall market has been fairly low. This capacity constraint
allowed energy service companies to charge higher daily rental rates
for their rigs - jump-starting their stocks. However, the stocks lost
some ground in November, detracting from performance. The sector that
hurt the fund the most was health care. The worst performer in this
sector was Oxford Health Plans. The company's stock plummeted more
than 60% in one day after the company announced that an accounting
error had caused it to severely misstate its quarterly earnings.
Following my models, I reduced the exposure to the stock by more than
50% before it took a hit that day, but the small position the fund
held after that still hurt performance. I sold the fund's position in
Oxford Health by the end of the period. Boston Scientific, Interneuron
Pharmaceuticals and U.S. Diagnostic were other health care stocks that
detracted from performance, although the effects were minimal since
the fund sold its investments in Interneuron Pharmaceuticals and U.S.
Diagnostic by the end of the period.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
A.  A combination of some of the more predictive technical cycles
indicates that, after a little more downside, we should see the market
consolidate with a slight upward drift into the first quarter of 1998.
More importantly, I expect the levels of volatility that we are seeing
now to continue for a while. Having said that, let me stress that time
- - and not timing - has been the key to making money in the stock
market. Historically, the market has logged more "up" months than
"down" months, so if an investor tries to time the market by getting
out and back in again, the odds are that the investor will be out of
the market during an "up" month. This is especially important to
remember during a volatile environment like the one we saw at the end
of the period. Investors in Advisor TechnoQuant should plan to stay
invested for at least two or three years. I've said it before and I'll
say it again, time - and not timing - is the key to success in the
financial markets.

"The turbulence we saw in the 
financial markets in Southeast 
Asia during the second half of 1997 
- - and its immediate impact on 
the earnings of some U.S. 
corporations - demonstrate the 
link between economies around 
the world. In particular, the Asian 
crisis has created a lot of 
uncertainty for U.S. technology 
companies. Southeast Asia has 
been a very high growth area for 
personal computers and related 
electronic products. Slower 
economic growth in this corner of 
the world may hurt demand in the 
future. On the other hand, many 
U.S. technology companies buy 
components and even finished 
goods in the Far East. Weaker 
currencies make products 
manufactured in these countries 
cheaper to build and lower the cost 
of goods for U.S. companies. This 
may enable U.S. companies to 
lower prices and stimulate 
demand for their products outside 
of the Far East. Another positive is 
that Asian competitors may have 
less access to capital in the future 
and may not be able to find funding 
to increase capacity. Supply 
increases in the Far East have been 
a perennial problem for U.S. tech 
companies - especially 
semiconductor manufacturers - 
because additional supply puts 
pressure on prices. To the extent 
that less Asian capacity is added 
in the future, this could be a 
positive for U.S. companies in the 
longer-term."

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Advisor TechnoQuant Growth Fund (the fund) is a fund of
Fidelity Advisor Series I (the trust) and is authorized to issue an
unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an
open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts
business trust.
The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C and Institutional
Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting
privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its
distribution plan. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital
gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain
fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata
basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to
the total net assets of the fund. Each class of shares differs in its
respective distribution, transfer agent, registration, and certain
other class-specific fees, expenses, and expense reductions.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles which permit management to
make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial
statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting
policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are
readily available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale
price, at the closing bid price. Securities for which exchange
quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt
securities which trade on an exchange) are valued primarily using
dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair value as determined in
good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general
supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities with
remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are
not readily available are valued at amortized cost or original cost
plus accrued interest, both of which approximate current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Income
receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the
prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates of the transactions.
Purchases and sales of securities are translated into U.S. dollars at
the contractual currency exchange rates established at the time of
each trade.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions
represent net gains and losses from sales and maturities of foreign
currency contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, and the
difference between the amount of net investment income accrued 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION - CONTINUED
and the U.S. dollar amount actually received. The effects of changes
in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are
included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on
investment securities.
INCOME TAXES. The fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment
company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. By so
qualifying, the fund will not be subject to income taxes to the extent
that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for its
fiscal year. The schedule of investments includes information
regarding income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the
ex-dividend date may have passed, are recorded as soon as the fund is
informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in
dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the
securities received. Interest income, which includes accretion of
original issue discount is accrued as earned. Investment income is
recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is
uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of each trust can be directly attributed to a
fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned
between the funds in the trust.
PREPAID EXPENSES. Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) bears
all organizational expenses except for registering and qualifying each
class and shares of each class for distribution under federal and
state securities law. These expenses are borne by each class and
amortized over one year.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are
declared separately for each class. 
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. These differences may result in distribution
reclassifications.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital.
Accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments and
foreign currency transactions may include temporary book and tax basis
differences that will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable gain
remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of
trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the
basis of identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The fund generally uses foreign currency
contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated
securities. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign
currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts'
terms. The U.S. dollar value of foreign currency contracts is
determined using contractual currency exchange rates established at
the time of each trade. The cost of the foreign currency contracts is
included in the cost basis of the associated investment.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the fund, along with
other affiliated entities of FMR, may transfer uninvested cash
balances into one or more joint trading accounts. These balances are
invested in one or more repurchase agreements for U.S. Treasury or
Federal Agency obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The underlying U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency
securities are transferred to an account of the fund, or to the Joint
Trading Account, at a bank custodian. The securities are
marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the
principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued
interest). FMR, the fund's investment adviser, is responsible for
determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in
accordance with the market value requirements stated above. 
TAXABLE CENTRAL CASH FUND. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by
the SEC, the fund may invest in the Taxable Central Cash Fund (the
Cash Fund) managed by FMR Texas, Inc., an affiliate of FMR. The Cash
Fund is an open-end money market fund available only to investment
companies and other accounts managed by FMR and its affiliates. The
Cash Fund seeks preservation of capital, liquidity and current income
by investing in U.S. Treasury securities and repurchase agreements for
these securities. Income distributions from the Cash Fund are declared
daily and paid monthly from net interest income. Income distributions
received by the fund are recorded as interest income in the
accompanying financial statements.
FUTURES CONTRACTS. The fund may use futures contracts to manage its
exposure to the stock market. Buying futures tends to increase the
fund's exposure to the underlying instrument, while selling futures
tends to decrease the fund's exposure to the underlying instrument or
hedge other fund investments. Losses may arise from changes in the
value of the underlying instruments or if the counterparties do not
perform under the contracts' terms. Gains (losses) are realized upon
the expiration or closing of the futures contracts. Futures contracts
are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board
of trade or exchange on which they are traded.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS. 
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $81,719,430 and $48,629,515, respectively.
The market value of futures contracts opened and closed during the
period amounted to $2,066,065 and $2,052,585, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. 
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a
monthly fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a
fixed individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of
the fund. The group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of
rates and is based on the monthly average net assets of all the mutual
funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .2500% to .5200% for the
period. The annual individual fund fee rate is .30%. In the event that
these rates were lower than the contractual rates in effect during the
period, FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted
in the same or a lower management fee. For the period, the management
fee was equivalent to an annualized rate of .60% of average net
assets.
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the
1940 Act, the Trustees have adopted separate distribution plans with
respect to each class of shares, (collectively referred to as "the
Plans"). Under certain of the Plans, the class pays Fidelity
Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a distribution
and service fee. This fee is based on the following annual rates of
the average net assets of each applicable class:
CLASS A     .25%      
 
CLASS T     .50%      
 
CLASS B     1.00% *   
 
CLASS C     1.00% *   
 
* .75% REPRESENTS A DISTRIBUTION FEE AND .25% REPRESENTS A SHAREHOLDER
SERVICE FEE.
For the period, each class paid FDC the following amounts, a portion
of which was paid to securities dealers, banks and other financial
institutions for the distribution of each class' applicable shares,
and providing shareholder support services:
           PAID TO     DEALERS'   
           FDC         PORTION    
 
CLASS A    $ 9,431     $ 9,431

CLASS C     10          0         
 
           $ 127,689   $ 83,522   
 
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN - CONTINUED
Under the Plans, FMR or FDC may use its resources to pay
administrative and promotional expenses related to the sale of each
class' shares. The Plans also authorize payments to third parties that
assist in the sale of each class' shares or render shareholder support
services. 
SALES LOAD. FDC receives a front-end sales charge of up to 5.75% for
selling Class A shares (5.25% prior to August 1, 1997), and 3.50% for
selling Class T shares of the fund, respectively. FDC receives the
proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges levied on Class B share
redemptions occurring within six years of purchase and Class C share
redemptions occurring within one year of purchase. Contingent deferred
sales charges are based on declining rates ranging from 5% to 1% for
Class B and 1% for Class C, of the lesser of the cost of shares at the
initial date of purchase or the net asset value of the redeemed
shares, excluding any reinvested dividends and capital gains. 
For the period, FDC received the following sales charge amounts
related to each class, a portion of which is paid to securities

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
 
To the Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Series I and the Shareholders of
Fidelity Advisor TechnoQuant Growth Fund:
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities,
including the schedule of investments, and the related statements of
operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Fidelity Advisor TechnoQuant Growth Fund (a fund of Fidelity Advisor
Series I) at November 30, 1997, and the results of its operations, the
changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for the periods
indicated, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. These financial statements and financial highlights
(hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of Fidelity Advisor TechnoQuant Growth Fund's
management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit of
these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit, which
included confirmation of securities at November 30, 1997 by
correspondence with the custodian and the application of alternative
auditing procedures where securities purchased were not yet received
by the custodian, provides a reasonable basis for the opinion
expressed above.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although financial turmoil in Pacific Basin countries was a catalyst
for significant volatility in U.S. markets in late October and into
November, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index has risen more than 31%
year-to-date, almost three times its historical annual average.
Meanwhile, bond markets - primarily influenced by a relatively steady
flow of positive news on the inflation front - continued to post solid
returns through the first 11 months of 1997.
While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets
with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that
can help investors plan for their future needs.
First, investors are encouraged to take a long-term view of their
portfolios. If you can afford to leave your money invested through the
inevitable up and down cycles of the financial markets, you will
greatly reduce your vulnerability to any single decline. We know from
experience, for example, that stock prices have gone up over longer
periods of time, have significantly outperformed other types of
investments and have stayed ahead of inflation. 
Second, you can further manage your investing risk through
diversification. A stock mutual fund, for instance, is already
diversified, because it invests in many different companies. You can
increase your diversification further by investing in a number of
different stock funds, or in such other investment categories as
bonds. If you have a short investment time horizon, you might want to
consider moving some of your investment into a money market fund,
which seeks income and a stable share price by investing in
high-quality, short-term investments. Of course, it's important to
remember that there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal of maintaining a stable net asset value of $1.00 per
share, and that these types of funds are neither insured nor
guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a
certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or
quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing
so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising
market, nor will you buy all your shares at market highs. While this
strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - won't assure a profit or
protect you from a loss in a declining market, it should help you
lower the average cost of your purchases.
Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with
your investments.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
ADVISOR MID CAP FUND - CLASS A
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual
percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment.
Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment,
assuming reinvestment of the class' dividend income and capital gains
(the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in
value). The initial offering of Class A shares took place on September
3, 1996. Class A shares bear a 0.25% 12b-1 fee that is reflected in
returns after September 3, 1996. Returns prior to September 3, 1996
are those of Class T and reflect Class T shares' 0.50% 12b-1 fee.
Effective August 1, 1997, the maximum 5.25% sales charge on Class A
shares was increased to 5.75%. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain
class expenses, the total returns would have been lower.

CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show Class A's performance in percentage
terms over a set period - in this case, one year or since the fund
started on February 20, 1996. For example, if you had invested $1,000
in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your
investment would be $1,050. You can compare Class A's returns to the
performance of the Standard & Poor's MidCap 400 Index - a widely
recognized, unmanaged index of 400 medium-capitalization stocks. To
measure how Class A's performance stacked up against its peers, you
can compare it to the mid-cap funds average, which reflects the
performance of mutual funds with similar objectives tracked by Lipper
Analytical Services, Inc. The past one year average represents a peer
group of 220 mutual funds. These benchmarks include reinvested
dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude the effect of sales
charges.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Fidelity Advisor Mid Cap Fund - Class A on February 20,
1996, when the fund started, and the current maximum 5.75% sales
charge was paid. As the chart shows, by November 30, 1997, the value
of the investment would have grown to $13,480 - a 34.80% increase on
the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Standard &
Poor's MidCap 400 Index did over the same period. With dividends and
capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would
have grown to $14,644 - a 46.44% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is 
no guarantee of how it will do 
tomorrow. The stock market, 
for example, has a history of 
long-term growth and 
short-term volatility. In turn, the 
share price and return of a 
fund that invests in stocks will 
vary. That means if you sell 
your shares during a market 
downturn, you might lose 
money. But if you can ride out 
the market's ups and downs, 
you may have a gain.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Fidelity Advisor Mid Cap Fund - Class B on February 20,
1996, when the fund started. As the chart shows, by November 30, 1997,
the value of the investment, including the effect of the applicable
contingent deferred sales charge, would have been $13,726 - a 37.26%
increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the
Standard & Poor's MidCap 400 Index did over the same period. With
dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000
investment would have grown to $14,644 - a 46.44% increase.

PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is 
no guarantee of how it will do 
tomorrow. The stock market, 
for example, has a history of 
long-term growth and 
short-term volatility. In turn, the 
share price and return of a 
fund that invests in stocks will 
vary. That means if you sell 
your shares during a market 
downturn, you might lose 
money. But if you can ride out 
the market's ups and downs, 
you may have a gain.

ADVISOR MID CAP FUND - CLASS C
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual
percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment.
Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment,
assuming reinvestment of the class' dividend income and capital gains
(the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in
value). The initial offering of Class C shares took place on November
3, 1997. Class C shares bear a 1.00% 12b-1/shareholder service fee.
Returns prior to November 3, 1997 are those of Class B and reflect
Class B shares' 1.00% 12b-1/shareholder service fee. Class C shares'
contingent deferred sales charge included in the past one year total
return figure is 1.00%. If Fidelity had not reimbursed class expenses,
the total returns would have been lower.

CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show Class C's performance in percentage
terms over a set period - in this case, one year or since the fund
started on February 20, 1996. For example, if you had invested $1,000
in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your
investment would be $1,050. You can compare Class C's returns to the
performance of the Standard & Poor's MidCap 400 Index - a widely
recognized, unmanaged index of 400 medium-capitalization stocks. To
measure how Class C's performance stacked up against its peers, you
can compare it to the mid-cap funds average, which reflects the
performance of mutual funds with similar objectives tracked by Lipper
Analytical Services, Inc. The past one year average represents a peer
group of 220 mutual funds. These benchmarks include reinvested
dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude the effect of sales
charges.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
 
 
 
MARKET RECAP
The 12 months that ended 
November 30, 1997, was a period 
that truly tested the U.S. stock 
market's resolve. But despite 
frequent shifts in sentiment, an 
interest-rate hike and global 
volatility concerns, U.S. stocks still 
managed to perform well. The 
Standard & Poor's 500 Index - a 
broad gauge of the U.S. stock 
market - returned 28.51% during 
the period, well above the 
market's long-term annual 
average of around 11%. In the first 
half of the period, large-cap stocks 
were responsible for much of the 
market's gain, as investors were 
drawn to stocks with recognizable 
names and consistent 
earnings-growth track records. 
Consequently, stock prices soared 
and enthusiasm was high. The 
Federal Reserve Board - in an 
attempt to halt inflation before it 
appeared - raised a key 
short-term interest rate by 0.25% 
in March. The market paused 
briefly, but then kept rolling as the 
Dow Jones Industrial Average 
reached the 8,000-point mark for 
the first time ever in August. With 
several multinational companies 
announcing earnings shortfalls in 
mid-August, small-cap stocks 
came into favor among investors. 
During August and September, 
the Russell 2000 Index - which 
measures small-cap stock 
performance - was up 9.78% 
while the S&P was down 0.43%. 
Volatility in Asian markets in late 
October sent skittish investors 
running for cover. The Dow slid 
554 points in one day, then 
snapped back the next, reclaiming 
330-plus points. Sensing 
continued fallout from this 
volatility, investors again became 
quality-conscious and large-caps 
regained their perch through 
November.
An interview with Katherine Collins, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity
Advisor Mid Cap Fund
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, KATHERINE?
A. During the 12 months that ended on November 30, 1997, the fund's
Class A, Class T, Class B and Class C shares had returns of 22.24%,
22.35%, 21.67% and 21.68%, respectively. During the same period, the
Standard & Poor's MidCap 400 Index returned 27.45% and the mid-cap
funds average monitored by Lipper Analytical Services returned 17.72%.
Q. WHAT WERE THE KEY FACTORS THAT CONTRIBUTED TO THE FUND'S
PERFORMANCE?
A. This was a very unusual year. While the fund trailed the S&P MidCap
400 Index, it did very well against its mutual fund peers. A major
reason for the underperformance relative to the index was that the
fund was underweighted for most of the year in financial stocks, which
were among the best- performing stocks in the mid-cap sector. Only
about 20% of the mid-cap funds did better than the index during this
year. This percentage is usually closer to 50%. The fund did benefit
from strong performance in several of its sectors and in a number of
its individual stocks. Two industries in particular did well as a
result of a trend to consolidation, which allowed merging companies to
increase operating efficiencies and achieve above-average earnings
growth. One of these industries was broadcasting. Several portfolio
holdings did well, including Clear Channel Communications, Chancellor
Media - formerly known as Evergreen Media - and American Radio
Systems. The second industry to benefit from consolidation was
healthcare. Two strong contributors to fund performance were McKesson
- - a drug-distribution company that performed very well after its
acquisition of Foxmeyer - and CVS - which was helped both by its
acquisition of Revco and by its strong pharmacy business.
Q. WERE THERE ANY DISAPPOINTMENTS?
A. In general, the semiconductor equipment stocks did not do well,
although I continue to believe this area should perform over the long
term as computer chips become more complex and create demand for new
equipment. Semiconductor stocks were very volatile in the fall after
performing well earlier in 1997. Most of these companies have
significant sales to Asian semiconductor producers, so their stocks
fell when Asian market problems surfaced. The rapid decline in the
stock prices illustrated just how sensitive these companies are to any
changes in semiconductor spending. Another disappointment was Oxford
Health, an HMO company. Oxford's stock fell sharply in the fall
following problems with a new computer system that resulted in an
underestimation of costs and an overestimation of revenues. This stock
is no longer in the portfolio.
Q. MID-CAP STOCKS APPEARED TO BE IMPROVING IN PERFORMANCE DURING THE
SPRING AND SUMMER BEFORE THE MARKETS BECAME VOLATILE IN THE FALL. HOW
DID THE FUND DO IN THE FALL?
A. The fund held up fairly well, for two important reasons. The first
is that the portfolio had less technology exposure than many other
funds. As mentioned earlier, technology stocks were hit especially
hard this fall because many of them have significant exposure to Asian
economies, so the lighter technology weighting helped the fund's
performance. The second factor is the strength of Fidelity's research
department, which is especially helpful in the mid-cap sector of the
market. Mid-cap stocks often trade less efficiently than their
large-cap counterparts and current prices are less likely to be
reflective of a company's true value. This is because the business
fundamentals of mid-cap companies are not researched as intensely and
the stocks are less liquid and traded less often. As a result, there
are some unusual opportunities created in a volatile market like the
one we saw this October. When the Dow dropped over 500 points in one
day, Fidelity analysts were able to sift through thousands of issues
quickly to identify which stocks had been unjustly beaten down. This
allowed me to do some opportunistic buying of great companies whose
stocks have since rebounded nicely.
Q. WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK?
A. I am optimistic for several reasons. First, the backdrop is sound:
there are thousands of mid-cap companies to choose from and valuations
for the sector are attractive relative to large-cap companies, so
there should be plenty of opportunity. Second, a volatile market plays
to Fidelity's strength in research. I am constantly in touch with
companies and able to take advantage of short-term dislocations in the
market. Third, this is a classic, bottom-up, stock-picking fund. There
is plenty of potential in the mid-cap market to find innovative,
misunderstood, undervalued or simply overlooked companies whose stocks
will outperform once investors recognize their appeal.

JENNIFER UHRIG ON ASIAN STOCK 
MARKET TURBULENCE AND U.S. 
TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES:
"The turbulence we saw in the 
financial markets in Southeast 
Asia during the second half of 1997 
- - and its immediate impact on 
the earnings of some U.S. 
corporations - demonstrate the 
link between economies around 
the world. In particular, the Asian 
crisis has created a lot of 
uncertainty for U.S. technology 
companies. Southeast Asia has 
been a very high growth area for 
personal computers and related 
electronic products. Slower 
economic growth in this corner of 
the world may hurt demand in the 
future. On the other hand, many 
U.S. technology companies buy 
components and even finished 
goods in the Far East. Weaker 
currencies make products 
manufactured in these countries 
cheaper to build and lower the cost 
of goods for U.S. companies. This 
may enable U.S. companies to 
lower prices and stimulate 
demand for their products outside 
of the Far East. Another positive is 
that Asian competitors may have 
less access to capital in the future 
and may not be able to find funding 
to increase capacity. Supply 
increases in the Far East have been 
a perennial problem for U.S. tech 
companies - especially 
semiconductor manufacturers - 
because additional supply puts 
pressure on prices. To the extent 
that less Asian capacity is added 
in the future, this could be a 
positive for U.S. companies in the 
longer-term."

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Advisor Mid Cap Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Advisor
Series I (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of
shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment
company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.
The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional
Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting
privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its
distribution plan. The fund commenced sale of Class C shares on
November 3, 1997. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital
gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain
fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata
basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to
the total net assets of the fund. Each class of shares differs in its
respective distribution, transfer agent, registration, and certain
other class-specific fees, expenses, and expense reductions.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles which permit management to
make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial
statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting
policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are
readily available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale
price, at the closing bid price. Securities for which exchange
quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt
securities which trade on an exchange) are valued primarily using
dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair value as determined in
good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general
supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities with
remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are
not readily available are valued at amortized cost or original cost
plus accrued interest, both of which approximate current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Income
receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the
prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates of the transactions.
Purchases and sales of securities are translated into U.S. dollars at
the contractual currency exchange rates established at the time of
each trade.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions
represent net gains and losses from sales and maturities of foreign
currency contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, and the
difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and the
U.S. dollar amount actually received. The effects of changes in
foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are
included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on
investment securities.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to
income taxes to the extent that it distributes substantially all of
its taxable income for its fiscal year. The schedule of investments
includes information regarding income taxes under the caption "Income
Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the
ex-dividend date may have passed, are recorded as soon as the fund is
informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in
dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the
securities received. Interest income is accrued as earned. Investment
income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of
such taxes is uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a
fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned
between the funds in the trust.
PREPAID EXPENSES. Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) bears
all organizational expenses except for registering and qualifying
Class C and shares of Class  C for distribution under federal and
state securities law. These expenses are borne by Class C and
amortized over one year.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are
declared separately for each class. 
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. These differences, which may result in
distribution reclassifications, are primarily due to differing
treatments for passive foreign investment companies (PFIC),
non-taxable dividends, and losses deferred due to wash sales and
excise tax regulations. The fund also utilized earnings and profits
distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares as a part of the
dividends paid deduction for income tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital.
Accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments and
foreign currency transactions may include temporary book and tax basis
differences that will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable
income or gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the
following year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of
trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the
basis of identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The fund generally uses foreign currency
contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated
securities. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign
currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts'
terms. The U.S. dollar value of foreign currency contracts is
determined using contractual currency exchange rates established at
the time of each trade. The cost of the foreign currency contracts is
included in the cost basis of the associated investment.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund, along with other
affiliated entities of FMR, may transfer uninvested cash balances into
one or more joint trading accounts. These balances are invested in one
or more repurchase agreements for U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency
obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The underlying U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency
securities are transferred to an account of the fund, or to the Joint
Trading Account, at a bank custodian. The securities are
marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the
principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued
interest). FMR, the fund's investment adviser, is responsible for
determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in
accordance with the market value requirements stated above. 
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS. 
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $811,511,385 and $701,803,367, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. 
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a
monthly fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a
fixed individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of
the fund. The group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of
rates and is based on the monthly average net assets of all the mutual
funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .2500% to .5200% for the
period. The annual individual fund fee rate is .30%. In the event that
these rates were lower than the contractual rates in effect during the
period, FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted
in the same or a lower management fee. For the period, the management
fee was equivalent to an annual rate of .60% of average net assets.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the
1940 Act, the Trustees have adopted separate distribution plans with
respect to each class of shares (collectively referred to as "the
Plans"). Under certain of the Plans, the class pays Fidelity
Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a distribution
and service fee. This fee is based on the following annual rates of
the average net assets of each applicable class:
CLASS A     .25%     
 
CLASS T     .50%     
 
CLASS B     1.00%*   
 
CLASS C     1.00%*   
 
* 75% REPRESENTS A DISTRIBUTION FEE AND .25% REPRESENTS A SHAREHOLDER
SERVICE FEE.
For the period, each class paid FDC the following amounts, a portion
of which was paid to securities dealers, banks and other financial
institutions for the distribution of each class' applicable shares,
and providing shareholder support services:
           PAID TO       DEALERS'      
           FDC           PORTION

           $ 1,775,272   $ 1,449,306   
 
Under the Plans, FMR or FDC may use its resources to pay
administrative and promotional expenses related to the sale of each
class' shares. The Plans also authorize payments to third parties that
assist in the sale of each class' shares or render shareholder support
services. 
SALES LOAD. FDC receives a front-end sales charge of up to 5.75% for
selling Class A shares (5.25% prior to August 1, 1997), and 3.50% for
selling Class T shares of the fund. FDC receives the proceeds of
contingent deferred sales charges levied on Class B share redemptions
occurring within six years of purchase (five years prior to January 2,
1997) and Class C share redemptions occurring within one year of
purchase. Contingent deferred sales charges are based on declining
rates ranging from 5% to 1% (4% to 1% prior to January 2, 1997) for
Class B and 1% for Class C, of the lesser of the cost of shares at the
initial date of purchase or the net asset value of the redeemed
shares, excluding any reinvested dividends and capital gains. 
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED

For the period, FDC received the following sales charge amounts
related to each class, a portion of which is paid to securities

TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Each class of the fund has entered into a
separate transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing
agent (collectively referred to as the Transfer Agents) contract with
respect to its shares. The Transfer Agents receive account fees and
asset-based fees that vary according to the account size and type of
account of the shareholders of the respective classes of the fund.
FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of all shareholder
reports, except proxy statements. For the period, the following

of the fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 1997 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Fidelity Advisor Series I: Fidelity Advisor Mid
Cap Fund as of November 30, 1997, the results of its operations for
the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for the year ended
November 30, 1997 and for the period February 20, 1996 to November 30,
1996, and the financial highlights of Class A, Class T, Class B, Class
C and Institutional Class for each of the periods indicated therein,
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

DISTRIBUTIONS
 
 
The Board of Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Mid Cap Fund voted to pay to
shareholders of record at the opening of business on record date, the
following distributions derived from capital gains realized from sales
of portfolio securities, and dividends derived from net investment
income:
 PAY DATE RECORD DATE CAPITAL GAINS
Class A 12/22/97 12/19/97 $1.44
 1/5/98 1/2/98 $.01
Class T 12/22/97 12/19/97 $1.43

 1/5/98 1/2/98 $.01
Class C 12/22/97 12/19/97 $1.43
 1/5/98 1/2/98 $.01
A total of 21.21%, 24.37%, and 29.24% of the dividends distributed by
Class A, Class T, and Class B, respectively, during the fiscal year
qualifies for the dividends-received deduction for corporate
shareholders.
The fund will notify shareholders in January 1998 of these percentages
for use in preparing 1997 income tax returns.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although financial turmoil in Pacific Basin countries was a catalyst
for significant volatility in U.S. markets in late October and into
November, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index has risen more than 31%
year-to-date, almost three times its historical annual average.
Meanwhile, bond markets - primarily influenced by a relatively steady
flow of positive news on the inflation front - continued to post solid
returns through the first 11 months of 1997.
While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets
with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that
can help investors plan for their future needs.
First, investors are encouraged to take a long-term view of their
portfolios. If you can afford to leave your money invested through the
inevitable up and down cycles of the financial markets, you will
greatly reduce your vulnerability to any single decline. We know from
experience, for example, that stock prices have gone up over longer
periods of time, have significantly outperformed other types of
investments and have stayed ahead of inflation. 
Second, you can further manage your investing risk through
diversification. A stock mutual fund, for instance, is already
diversified, because it invests in many different companies. You can
increase your diversification further by investing in a number of
different stock funds, or in such other investment categories as
bonds. If you have a short investment time horizon, you might want to
consider moving some of your investment into a money market fund,
which seeks income and a stable share price by investing in
high-quality, short-term investments. Of course, it's important to
remember that there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal of maintaining a stable net asset value of $1.00 per
share, and that these types of funds are neither insured nor
guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a
certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or
quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing
so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising
market, nor will you buy all your shares at market highs. While this
strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - won't assure a profit or
protect you from a loss in a declining market, it should help you
lower the average cost of your purchases.
Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with
your investments.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
ADVISOR MID CAP FUND - INSTITUTIONAL CLASS
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual
percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment.
Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment,
assuming reinvestment of the class' dividend income and capital gains
(the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in
value). If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the
life of fund total returns would have been lower.

MID-CAP FUNDS AVERAGE                         17.72%   N/A       
 
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show Institutional Class' performance in
percentage terms over a set period - in this case, one year or since
the fund started on February 20, 1996. For example, if you had
invested $1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the
value of your investment would be $1,050. You can compare
Institutional Class' returns to the performance of the Standard &
Poor's MidCap 400 Index - a widely recognized, unmanaged index of 400
medium-capitalization stocks. To measure how Institutional Class'
performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the
mid-cap funds average, which reflects the performance of mutual funds
with similar objectives tracked by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc.
The past one year average represents a peer group of 220 mutual funds.
These benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if
any, and exclude the effect of sales charges.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Fidelity Advisor Mid Cap Fund - Institutional Class on
February 20, 1996, when the fund started. As the chart shows, by
November 30, 1997, the value of the investment would have grown to
$14,396 - a 43.96% increase on the initial investment. For comparison,
look at how the Standard & Poor's MidCap 400 Index did over the same
period. With dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same
$10,000 investment would have grown to $14,644 - a 46.44% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is 
no guarantee of how it will do 
tomorrow. The stock market, 
for example, has a history of 
long-term growth and 
short-term volatility. In turn, the 
share price and return of a 
fund that invests in stocks will 
vary. That means if you sell 
your shares during a market 
downturn, you might lose 
money. But if you can ride out 
the market's ups and downs, 
you may have a gain.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
 
 
 
MARKET RECAP
The 12 months that ended 
November 30, 1997, was a period 
that truly tested the U.S. stock 
market's resolve. But despite 
frequent shifts in sentiment, an 
interest-rate hike and global 
volatility concerns, U.S. stocks still 
managed to perform well. The 
Standard & Poor's 500 Index - a 
broad gauge of the U.S. stock 
market - returned 28.51% during 
the period, well above the 
market's long-term annual 
average of around 11%. In the first 
half of the period, large-cap stocks 
were responsible for much of the 
market's gain, as investors were 
drawn to stocks with recognizable 
names and consistent 
earnings-growth track records. 
Consequently, stock prices soared 
and enthusiasm was high. The 
Federal Reserve Board - in an 
attempt to halt inflation before it 
appeared - raised a key 
short-term interest rate by 0.25% 
in March. The market paused 
briefly, but then kept rolling as the 
Dow Jones Industrial Average 
reached the 8,000-point mark for 
the first time ever in August. With 
several multinational companies 
announcing earnings shortfalls in 
mid-August, small-cap stocks 
came into favor among investors. 
During August and September, 
the Russell 2000 Index - which 
measures small-cap stock 
performance - was up 9.78% 
while the S&P was down 0.43%. 
Volatility in Asian markets in late 
October sent skittish investors 
running for cover. The Dow slid 
554 points in one day, then 
snapped back the next, reclaiming 
330-plus points. Sensing 
continued fallout from this 
volatility, investors again became 
quality-conscious and large-caps 
regained their perch through 
November.
An interview with Katherine Collins, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity
Advisor Mid Cap Fund
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, KATHERINE?
A. During the 12 months that ended on November 30, 1997, the fund's
Institutional Class shares had a return of 23.04%, compared to a
return of 27.45% for the Standard & Poor's MidCap 400 Index and 17.72%
for the mid-cap funds average monitored by Lipper Analytical Services.
Q. WHAT WERE THE KEY FACTORS THAT CONTRIBUTED TO THE FUND'S
PERFORMANCE?
A. This was a very unusual year. While the fund trailed the S&P MidCap
400 Index, it did very well against its mutual fund peers. A major
reason for the underperformance relative to the index was that the
fund was underweighted for most of the year in financial stocks, which
were among the best- performing stocks in the mid-cap sector. Only
about 20% of the mid-cap funds did better than the index during this
year. This percentage is usually closer to 50%. The fund did benefit
from strong performance in several of its sectors and in a number of
its individual stocks. Two industries in particular did well as a
result of a trend to consolidation, which allowed merging companies to
increase operating efficiencies and achieve above-average earnings
growth. One of these industries was broadcasting. Several portfolio
holdings did well, including Clear Channel Communications, Chancellor
Media - formerly known as Evergreen Media - and American Radio
Systems. The second industry to benefit from consolidation was
healthcare. Two strong contributors to fund performance were McKesson
- - a drug-distribution company that performed very well after its
acquisition of Foxmeyer - and CVS - which was helped both by its
acquisition of Revco and by its strong pharmacy business.
Q. WERE THERE ANY DISAPPOINTMENTS?
A. In general, the semiconductor equipment stocks did not do well,
although I continue to believe this area should perform over the long
term as computer chips become more complex and create demand for new
equipment. Semiconductor stocks were very volatile in the fall after
performing well earlier in 1997. Most of these companies have
significant sales to Asian semiconductor producers, so their stocks
fell when Asian market problems surfaced. The rapid decline in the
stock prices illustrated just how sensitive these companies are to any
changes in semiconductor spending. Another disappointment was Oxford
Health, an HMO company. Oxford's stock fell sharply in the fall
following problems with a new computer system that resulted in an
underestimation of costs and an overestimation of revenues. This stock
is no longer in the portfolio.
Q. MID-CAP STOCKS APPEARED TO BE IMPROVING IN PERFORMANCE DURING THE
SPRING AND SUMMER BEFORE THE MARKETS BECAME VOLATILE IN THE FALL. HOW
DID THE FUND DO IN THE FALL?
A. The fund held up fairly well, for two important reasons. The first
is that the portfolio had less technology exposure than many other
funds. As mentioned earlier, technology stocks were hit especially
hard this fall because many of them have significant exposure to Asian
economies, so the lighter technology weighting helped the fund's
performance. The second factor is the strength of Fidelity's research
department, which is especially helpful in the mid-cap sector of the
market. Mid-cap stocks often trade less efficiently than their
large-cap counterparts and current prices are less likely to be
reflective of a company's true value. This is because the business
fundamentals of mid-cap companies are not researched as intensely and
the stocks are less liquid and traded less often. As a result, there
are some unusual opportunities created in a volatile market like the
one we saw this October. When the Dow dropped over 500 points in one
day, Fidelity analysts were able to sift through thousands of issues
quickly to identify which stocks had been unjustly beaten down. This
allowed me to do some opportunistic buying of great companies whose
stocks have since rebounded nicely.
Q. WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK?
A. I am optimistic for several reasons. First, the backdrop is sound:
there are thousands of mid-cap companies to choose from and valuations
for the sector are attractive relative to large-cap companies, so
there should be plenty of opportunity. Second, a volatile market plays
to Fidelity's strength in research. I am constantly in touch with
companies and able to take advantage of short-term dislocations in the
market. Third, this is a classic, bottom-up, stock-picking fund. There
is plenty of potential in the mid-cap market to find innovative,
misunderstood, undervalued or simply overlooked companies whose stocks
will outperform once investors recognize their appeal.

JENNIFER UHRIG ON ASIAN STOCK 
MARKET TURBULENCE AND U.S. 
TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES:
"The turbulence we saw in the 
financial markets in Southeast 
Asia during the second half of 1997 
- - and its immediate impact on 
the earnings of some U.S. 
corporations - demonstrate the 
link between economies around 
the world. In particular, the Asian 
crisis has created a lot of 
uncertainty for U.S. technology 
companies. Southeast Asia has 
been a very high growth area for 
personal computers and related 
electronic products. Slower 
economic growth in this corner of 
the world may hurt demand in the 
future. On the other hand, many 
U.S. technology companies buy 
components and even finished 
goods in the Far East. Weaker 
currencies make products 
manufactured in these countries 
cheaper to build and lower the cost 
of goods for U.S. companies. This 
may enable U.S. companies to 
lower prices and stimulate 
demand for their products outside 
of the Far East. Another positive is 
that Asian competitors may have 
less access to capital in the future 
and may not be able to find funding 
to increase capacity. Supply 
increases in the Far East have been 
a perennial problem for U.S. tech 
companies - especially 
semiconductor manufacturers - 
because additional supply puts 
pressure on prices. To the extent 
that less Asian capacity is added 
in the future, this could be a 
positive for U.S. companies in the 
longer-term."

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Advisor Mid Cap Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Advisor
Series I (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of
shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment
company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.
The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional
Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting
privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its
distribution plan. The fund commenced sale of Class C shares on
November 3, 1997. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital
gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain
fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata
basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to
the total net assets of the fund. Each class of shares differs in its
respective distribution, transfer agent, registration, and certain
other class-specific fees, expenses, and expense reductions.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles which permit management to
make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial
statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting
policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are
readily available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale
price, at the closing bid price. Securities for which exchange
quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt
securities which trade on an exchange) are valued primarily using
dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair value as determined in
good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general
supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities with
remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are
not readily available are valued at amortized cost or original cost
plus accrued interest, both of which approximate current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Income
receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the
prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates of the transactions.
Purchases and sales of securities are translated into U.S. dollars at
the contractual currency exchange rates established at the time of
each trade.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions
represent net gains and losses from sales and maturities of foreign
currency contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, and the
difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and the
U.S. dollar amount actually received. The effects of changes in
foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are
included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on
investment securities.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to
income taxes to the extent that it distributes substantially all of
its taxable income for its fiscal year. The schedule of investments
includes information regarding income taxes under the caption "Income
Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the
ex-dividend date may have passed, are recorded as soon as the fund is
informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in
dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the
securities received. Interest income is accrued as earned. Investment
income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of
such taxes is uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a
fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned
between the funds in the trust.
PREPAID EXPENSES. Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) bears
all organizational expenses except for registering and qualifying
Class C and shares of Class  C for distribution under federal and
state securities law. These expenses are borne by Class C and
amortized over one year.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are
declared separately for each class. 
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. These differences, which may result in
distribution reclassifications, are primarily due to differing
treatments for passive foreign investment companies (PFIC),
non-taxable dividends, and losses deferred due to wash sales and
excise tax regulations. The fund also utilized earnings and profits
distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares as a part of the
dividends paid deduction for income tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital.
Accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments and
foreign currency transactions may include temporary book and tax basis
differences that will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable
income or gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the
following year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of
trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the
basis of identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The fund generally uses foreign currency
contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated
securities. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign
currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts'
terms. The U.S. dollar value of foreign currency contracts is
determined using contractual currency exchange rates established at
the time of each trade. The cost of the foreign currency contracts is
included in the cost basis of the associated investment.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund, along with other
affiliated entities of FMR, may transfer uninvested cash balances into
one or more joint trading accounts. These balances are invested in one
or more repurchase agreements for U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency
obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The underlying U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency
securities are transferred to an account of the fund, or to the Joint
Trading Account, at a bank custodian. The securities are
marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the
principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued
interest). FMR, the fund's investment adviser, is responsible for
determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in
accordance with the market value requirements stated above. 
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS. 
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $811,511,385 and $701,803,367, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. 
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a
monthly fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a
fixed individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of
the fund. The group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of
rates and is based on the monthly average net assets of all the mutual
funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .2500% to .5200% for the
period. The annual individual fund fee rate is .30%. In the event that
these rates were lower than the contractual rates in effect during the
period, FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted
in the same or a lower management fee. For the period, the management
fee was equivalent to an annual rate of .60% of average net assets.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the
1940 Act, the Trustees have adopted separate distribution plans with
respect to each class of shares (collectively referred to as "the
Plans"). Under certain of the Plans, the class pays Fidelity
Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a distribution
and service fee. This fee is based on the following annual rates of
the average net assets of each applicable class:
CLASS A     .25%     
 
CLASS T     .50%     
 
CLASS B     1.00%*   
 
CLASS C     1.00%*   
 
* 75% REPRESENTS A DISTRIBUTION FEE AND .25% REPRESENTS A SHAREHOLDER
SERVICE FEE.
For the period, each class paid FDC the following amounts, a portion
of which was paid to securities dealers, banks and other financial
institutions for the distribution of each class' applicable shares,
and providing shareholder support services:
           PAID TO       DEALERS'      
           FDC           PORTION

           $ 1,775,272   $ 1,449,306   
 
Under the Plans, FMR or FDC may use its resources to pay
administrative and promotional expenses related to the sale of each
class' shares. The Plans also authorize payments to third parties that
assist in the sale of each class' shares or render shareholder support
services. 
SALES LOAD. FDC receives a front-end sales charge of up to 5.75% for
selling Class A shares (5.25% prior to August 1, 1997), and 3.50% for
selling Class T shares of the fund. FDC receives the proceeds of
contingent deferred sales charges levied on Class B share redemptions
occurring within six years of purchase (five years prior to January 2,
1997) and Class C share redemptions occurring within one year of
purchase. Contingent deferred sales charges are based on declining
rates ranging from 5% to 1% (4% to 1% prior to January 2, 1997) for
Class B and 1% for Class C, of the lesser of the cost of shares at the
initial date of purchase or the net asset value of the redeemed
shares, excluding any reinvested dividends and capital gains. 
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
SALES LOAD - CONTINUED

related to each class, a portion of which is paid to securities
dealers, banks, and other financial institutions:

* WHEN CLASS B SHARES ARE INITIALLY SOLD, FDC PAYS COMMISSIONS FROM
ITS OWN RESOURCES TO DEALERS
  THROUGH WHICH THE SALES ARE MADE.
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Each class of the fund has entered into a
separate transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing
agent (collectively referred to as the Transfer Agents) contract with
respect to its shares. The Transfer Agents receive account fees and
asset-based fees that vary according to the account size and type of
account of the shareholders of the respective classes of the fund.
FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of all shareholder
reports, except proxy statements. For the period, the following
amounts were paid to each transfer agent:
                        TRANSFER   AMOUNT      % OF

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
 
To the Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Series I and the Shareholders of
Fidelity Advisor Mid Cap Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities
of Fidelity Advisor Series I: Fidelity Advisor Mid Cap Fund, including
the schedule of portfolio investments, as of November 30, 1997, and
the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the
statement of changes in net assets for the year ended November 30,
1997 and for the period February 20, 1996 to November 30, 1996 and the
financial highlights of Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C, and
Institutional Class for each of the periods indicated therein. These
financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility
of the fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 1997 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Fidelity Advisor Series I: Fidelity Advisor Mid
Cap Fund as of November 30, 1997, the results of its operations for
the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for the year ended
November 30, 1997 and for the period February 20, 1996 to November 30,
1996, and the financial highlights of Class A, Class T, Class B, Class
C and Institutional Class for each of the periods indicated therein,
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

of portfolio securities, and dividends derived from net investment
income:

shareholders.

for use in preparing 1997 income tax returns.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although financial turmoil in Pacific Basin countries was a catalyst
for significant volatility in U.S. markets in late October and into
November, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index has risen more than 31%
year-to-date, almost three times its historical annual average.
Meanwhile, bond markets - primarily influenced by a relatively steady
flow of positive news on the inflation front - continued to post solid
returns through the first 11 months of 1997.
While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets
with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that
can help investors plan for their future needs.
First, investors are encouraged to take a long-term view of their
portfolios. If you can afford to leave your money invested through the
inevitable up and down cycles of the financial markets, you will
greatly reduce your vulnerability to any single decline. We know from
experience, for example, that stock prices have gone up over longer
periods of time, have significantly outperformed other types of
investments and have stayed ahead of inflation. 
Second, you can further manage your investing risk through
diversification. A stock mutual fund, for instance, is already
diversified, because it invests in many different companies. You can
increase your diversification further by investing in a number of
different stock funds, or in such other investment categories as
bonds. If you have a short investment time horizon, you might want to
consider moving some of your investment into a money market fund,
which seeks income and a stable share price by investing in
high-quality, short-term investments. Of course, it's important to
remember that there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal of maintaining a stable net asset value of $1.00 per
share, and that these types of funds are neither insured nor
guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a
certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or
quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing
so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising
market, nor will you buy all your shares at market highs. While this
strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - won't assure a profit or
protect you from a loss in a declining market, it should help you
lower the average cost of your purchases.
Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with
your investments.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
ADVISOR GROWTH & INCOME FUND - CLASS A
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual
percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment.
Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment,
assuming reinvestment of the class' dividend income and capital gains
(the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in
value). Effective August 1, 1997, the maximum 5.25% sales charge on
Class A shares was increased to 5.75%. If Fidelity had not reimbursed
certain class expenses, the total returns would have been lower.

S&P 500(REGISTERED TRADEMARK)       31.11%    
 
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show Class A's performance in percentage
terms over a set period - in this case, since the fund started on
December 31, 1996. For example, if you had invested $1,000 in a fund
that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your investment
would be $1,050. You can compare Class A's returns to the performance
of the Standard & Poor's 500 Index - a widely recognized, unmanaged
index of common stocks. This benchmark includes reinvested dividends
and capital gains, if any, and excludes the effect of sales charges.
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS take Class A's cumulative return and show
you what would have happened if Class A had performed at a constant
rate each year. These numbers will be reported once the fund is a year
old.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Fidelity Advisor Growth & Income Fund - Class A on
December 31, 1996, when the fund started, and the current maximum
5.75% sales charge was paid. As the chart shows, by November 30, 1997,
the value of the investment would have grown to $11,785 - a 17.85%
increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the
S&P 500 did over the same period. With dividends reinvested, the same
$10,000 investment would have grown to $13,111 - a 31.11% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is 
no guarantee of how it will do 
tomorrow. The stock market, 
for example, has a history of 
long-term growth and 
short-term volatility. In turn, the 
share price and return of a 
fund that invests in stocks or 
bonds will vary. That means if 
you sell your shares during a 
market downturn, you might 
lose money. But if you can ride 
out the market's ups and 
downs, you may have a gain.

ADVISOR GROWTH & INCOME FUND - CLASS C
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual
percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment.
Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment,
assuming reinvestment of the class' dividend income and capital gains
(the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in
value). The initial offering of Class C shares took place on November
3, 1997. Class C shares bear a 1.00% 12b-1/shareholder service fee
that is reflected in returns after November 3, 1997. Returns prior to
November 3, 1997 are those of Class B shares and reflect Class B
shares 1.00% 12b-1/shareholder service fee. Class C's contingent
deferred sales charge included in the life of fund total return figure
is 1.00%. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the
total return would have been lower.

S&P 500(REGISTERED TRADEMARK)       31.11%    
 
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show Class C's performance in percentage
terms over a set period - in this case, since the fund started on
December 31, 1996. For example, if you had invested $1,000 in a fund
that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your investment
would be $1,050. You can compare Class C's returns to the performance
of the Standard & Poor's 500 Index - a widely recognized, unmanaged
index of common stocks. This benchmark includes reinvested dividends
and capital gains, if any, and excludes the effect of sales charges.
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS take Class C's cumulative return and show
you what would have happened if Class C had performed at a constant
rate each year. These numbers will be reported once the fund is a year
old.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Fidelity Advisor Growth & Income Fund - Class C on
December 31, 1996, when the fund started. As the chart shows, by
November 30, 1997, the value of the investment, including the effect
of the applicable contingent deferred sales charge, would have grown
to $12,321 - a 23.21% increase on the initial investment. For
comparison, look at how the S&P 500 did over the same period. With
dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to
$13,111 - a 31.11% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is 
no guarantee of how it will do 
tomorrow. The stock market, 
for example, has a history of 
long-term growth and 
short-term volatility. In turn, the 
share price and return of a 
fund that invests in stocks or 
bonds will vary. That means if 
you sell your shares during a 
market downturn, you might 
lose money. But if you can ride 
out the market's ups and 
downs, you may have a gain.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
 
 
 
MARKET RECAP
The 12 months that ended 
November 30, 1997, was a period 
that truly tested the U.S. stock 
market's resolve. But despite 
frequent shifts in sentiment, an 
interest-rate hike and global 
volatility concerns, U.S. stocks still 
managed to perform well. The 
Standard & Poor's 500 Index - a 
broad gauge of the U.S. stock 
market - returned 28.51% during 
the period, well above the 
market's long-term annual 
average of around 11%. In the first 
half of the period, large-cap stocks 
were responsible for much of the 
market's gain, as investors were 
drawn to stocks with recognizable 
names and consistent 
earnings-growth track records. 
Consequently, stock prices soared 
and enthusiasm was high. The 
Federal Reserve Board - in an 
attempt to halt inflation before it 
appeared - raised a key 
short-term interest rate by 0.25% 
in March. The market paused 
briefly, but then kept rolling as the 
Dow Jones Industrial Average 
reached the 8,000-point mark for 
the first time ever in August. With 
several multinational companies 
announcing earnings shortfalls in 
mid-August, small-cap stocks 
came into favor among investors. 
During August and September, 
the Russell 2000 Index - which 
measures small-cap stock 
performance - was up 9.78% 
while the S&P was down 0.43%. 
Volatility in Asian markets in late 
October sent skittish investors 
running for cover. The Dow slid 
554 points in one day, then 
snapped back the next, reclaiming 
330-plus points. Sensing 
continued fallout from this 
volatility, investors again became 
quality-conscious and large-caps 
regained their perch through 
November.
An interview with Beth Terrana, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Advisor
Growth and Income Fund
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, BETH? 
A. From the fund's commencement date - December 31, 1996 - through
November 30, 1997, the fund's Class A, Class T, Class B and Class C
shares returned 25.04%, 24.83%, 24.22% and 24.21%, respectively. The
Standard & Poor's 500 Index returned 31.11% during the same period.
Q. PERFORMANCE SEEMS TO HAVE PICKED UP OVER THE PAST SIX MONTHS. WHAT
WERE SOME OF THE STRATEGIES THAT BENEFITED THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE?
A. While the fund trailed the S&P 500 during the period, I've been
satisfied with recent performance. Part of the reason the fund trailed
the index was the "narrowness" of the market. By that I mean much of
the market's gains were concentrated among a narrow group of
large-capitalization stocks. Stock selection - which is where I focus
most of my efforts - within a number of industries was solid, and was
largely responsible for the fund's absolute performance. Foremost, I'd
highlight retail store investments, where both stock selection and an
industry overweighting - more than double that of the S&P 500 - were
material contributors. Over the past six months, retailing stocks have
been the strongest of the S&P 500 industry sectors. Strong retail
store investments included Consolidated Stores - owner of Kay-Bee Toy
stores - and Gap Inc., which operates several leading-edge apparel
chains. The fund also benefited from stock selection within the
finance, health care and technology sectors. Strong performers in
these industries included BankAmerica, drug-maker Bristol-Myers Squibb
and personal computer-maker Compaq Computer.
Q. YOU INCREASED THE FUND'S RETAIL EXPOSURE. WHY WERE THESE STOCKS
ATTRACTIVE?
A. I detected several positive industry trends that provided a
favorable backdrop for the sector. These trends included a reduction
in store overcapacity - which had afflicted the industry for years -
better management focus on the bottom line and new-found attention to
returns on invested capital. While it would be a stretch to say that
all retailers have recently mended their ways, it was clear to me that
there were a number of attractive stocks with the potential for upward
revaluations of their price-to-earnings (P/E) multiples. The story
behind discounter Wal-Mart - the fund's second-largest retail
investment - illustrates my investment thesis. Following the company's
explosive growth during the `80s - which resulted in very strong stock
appreciation - the firm's returns deteriorated and its stock
dramatically underperformed from 1993 through 1996. Recognizing that
it had a problem, Wal-Mart committed itself to a new financial
discipline - emphasizing returns on its capital base - which has since
helped its earnings growth begin to reaccelerate. Based on these
positive developments, the stock's P/E multiple and price recently
began to rise.
Q. TIME WARNER IS A RELATIVELY NEW TOP 10 HOLDING. WHAT MADE THIS
STOCK ATTRACTIVE?
A. Fundamentally, the company has a number of media franchises -
including Warner Brothers, Time Warner Cable, CNN and Time magazine -
with wide global reach. Also, the company has been focusing intently
on improving its financial returns. For example, previously high
levels of capital expenditures - largely related to its cable
television operations - were expected to peak and then decline, a
development that I felt could enhance the company's free cash flow
dynamics. The potential for this to happen - and for Time Warner to
continue expanding and enhancing its franchises worldwide - made this
stock attractive during the period.
Q. WHICH STOCKS PERFORMED WELL? WHICH WERE DISAPPOINTING?
A. Other positions that performed well included General Electric,
diversified industrial Tyco International and IBM. There haven't been
any major setbacks, but several smaller holdings - including
Columbia/HCA Healthcare, Tupperware and Waste Management - detracted
from performance.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT SIX MONTHS?
A. Given the economic difficulties we saw in Southeast Asia during
October, global economic growth may experience a marginal slowdown. If
there is such a slowdown, stocks with predictable, sustainable
earnings growth likely will outperform economically sensitive
cyclicals and commodities-based firms. Of course, those firms with
significant revenue exposure to the region could be particularly
affected, so I've endeavored to limit the fund's investments in firms
whose earnings are susceptible to a slowdown.

JENNIFER UHRIG ON ASIAN STOCK 
MARKET TURBULENCE AND U.S. 
TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES:
"The turbulence we saw in the 
financial markets in Southeast 
Asia during the second half of 1997 
- - and its immediate impact on 
the earnings of some U.S. 
corporations - demonstrate the 
link between economies around 
the world. In particular, the Asian 
crisis has created a lot of 
uncertainty for U.S. technology 
companies. Southeast Asia has 
been a very high growth area for 
personal computers and related 
electronic products. Slower 
economic growth in this corner of 
the world may hurt demand in the 
future. On the other hand, many 
U.S. technology companies buy 
components and even finished 
goods in the Far East. Weaker 
currencies make products 
manufactured in these countries 
cheaper to build and lower the cost 
of goods for U.S. companies. This 
may enable U.S. companies to 
lower prices and stimulate 
demand for their products outside 
of the Far East. Another positive is 
that Asian competitors may have 
less access to capital in the future 
and may not be able to find funding 
to increase capacity. Supply 
increases in the Far East have been 
a perennial problem for U.S. tech 
companies - especially 
semiconductor manufacturers - 
because additional supply puts 
pressure on prices. To the extent 
that less Asian capacity is added 
in the future, this could be a 
positive for U.S. companies in the 
longer-term."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended November 30, 1997
 
 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Advisor Growth & Income Fund(the fund) is a fund of Fidelity
Advisor Series I (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited
number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management
investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.
The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C and Institutional
Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting
privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its
distribution plan. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital
gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain
fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata
basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to
the total net assets of the fund. Each class of shares differs in its
respective distribution, transfer agent, registration, and certain
other class-specific fees, expenses, and expense reductions.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles which permit management to
make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial
statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting
policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are
readily available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale
price, at the closing bid price. Securities (including restricted
securities) for which exchange quotations are not readily available
(and in certain cases debt securities which trade on an exchange) are
valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair
value as determined in good faith under consistently applied
procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.
Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less
for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized
cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate
current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Income
receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the
prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates of the transactions.
Purchases and sales of securities are translated into U.S. dollars at
the contractual currency exchange rates established at the time of
each trade.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions
represent net gains and losses from sales and maturities of foreign
currency contracts and foreign currency options, disposition of
foreign currencies, and the difference between the amount of net
investment income accrued and the U.S. dollar amount actually
received. The effects of changes in 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION - CONTINUED
foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are
included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on
investment securities.
INCOME TAXES. The fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment
company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. By so
qualifying, the fund will not be subject to income taxes to the extent
that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for its
fiscal year. The schedule of investments includes information
regarding income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the
ex-dividend date may have passed, are recorded as soon as the fund is
informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in
dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the
securities received. Interest income is accrued as earned. Investment
income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of
such taxes is uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a
fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned
between the funds in the trust.
PREPAID EXPENSES. Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) bears
all organizational expenses except for registering and qualifying each
class and shares of each class for distribution under federal and
state securities law. These expenses are borne by each class and
amortized over one year.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are
declared separately for each class.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. These differences may result in distribution
reclassifications.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital.
Undistributed net investment income and accumulated undistributed net
realized gain (loss) on investments and foreign currency transactions
may include temporary book and tax basis differences which will
reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable income or gain remaining
at fiscal year end is distributed in the following year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of
trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the
basis of identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The fund generally uses foreign currency
contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated
securities. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign
currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts'
terms. The U.S. dollar value of foreign currency contracts is
determined using contractual currency exchange rates established at
the time of each trade. The cost of the foreign currency contracts is
included in the cost basis of the associated investment.
TAXABLE CENTRAL CASH FUND. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by
the Securities and Exchange Commission(the SEC), the fund may invest
in the Taxable Central Cash Fund (the Cash Fund) managed by FMR Texas,
Inc., an affiliate of FMR. The Cash Fund is an open-end money market
fund available only to investment companies and other accounts managed
by FMR and its affiliates. The Cash Fund seeks preservation of
capital, liquidity, and current income by investing in U.S. Treasury
securities and repurchase agreements for these securities. Income
distributions from the Cash Fund are declared daily and paid monthly
from net interest income. Income distributions received by the fund
are recorded as interest income in the accompanying financial
statements.
FUTURES CONTRACTS. The fund may use futures contracts to manage its
exposure to the stock and bond markets and to fluctuations in interest
rates and currency values. Buying futures tends to increase the fund's
exposure to the underlying instrument, while selling futures tends to
decrease the fund's exposure to the underlying instrument or hedge
other fund investments. Losses may arise from changes in the value of
the underlying instruments or if the counterparties do not perform
under the contracts' terms. Gains (losses) are realized upon the
expiration or closing of the futures contracts. Futures contracts are
valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of
trade or exchange on which they are traded.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS. 
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $278,464,405 and $65,450,849, respectively.
The market value of futures contracts opened and closed during the
period amounted to $42,876,802 and $43,012,172, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. 
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a
monthly fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a
fixed individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of
the fund. The group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of
rates and is based on the monthly average net assets of all the mutual
funds advised by FMR. 
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
MANAGEMENT FEE - CONTINUED
The rates ranged from .2500% to .5200% for the period. The annual
individual fund fee rate is .20%. In the event that these rates were
lower than the contractual rates in effect during the period, FMR
voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted in the same
or a lower management fee. For the period, the management fee was
equivalent to an annualized rate of .50% of average net assets 
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the
1940 Act, the Trustees have adopted separate distribution plans with
respect to each class of shares (collectively referred to as "the
Plans"). Under certain of the Plans, the class pays Fidelity
Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a distribution
and service fee. This fee is based on the following annual rates of
the average net assets of each applicable class:
CLASS A     .25%     
 
CLASS T     .50%     
 
CLASS B     1.00%*   
 
CLASS C     1.00%*   
 
* .75% REPRESENTS A DISTRIBUTION FEE AND .25% REPRESENTS A SHAREHOLDER
SERVICE FEE.
For the period, each class paid FDC the following amounts, a portion
of which was paid to securities dealers, banks and other financial
institutions for the distribution of each class' applicable shares,
and providing shareholder support services:
           PAID TO    DEALERS'   
           FDC        PORTION

           378,995    290,348    
 
Under the Plans, FMR or FDC may use its resources to pay
administrative and promotional expenses related to the sale of each
class' shares. The Plans also authorize payments to third parties that
assist in the sale of each class' shares or render shareholder support
services. 
SALES LOAD. FDC receives a front-end sales charge of up to 5.75% for
selling Class A shares (5.25% prior to August  1, 1997), and 3.50% for
selling Class T shares of the fund, respectively. FDC receives the
proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges levied on Class B share
redemptions occurring within six years of purchase and Class C share
redemptions occurring within one year of purchase. Contingent deferred
sales charges are based on declining rates ranging from 5% to 1% for
Class B and 1% for Class C, of

the lesser of the cost of shares at the initial date of purchase or
the net asset value of the redeemed shares, excluding any reinvested
dividends and capital gains. 
For the period, FDC received the following sales charge amounts
related to each class, a portion of which is paid to securities
dealers, banks, and other financial institutions:

* WHEN CLASS B SHARES ARE INITIALLY SOLD, FDC PAYS COMMISSIONS FROM
ITS OWN RESOURCES TO DEALERS THROUGH WHICH THE SALES ARE MADE.
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Each class of the fund has entered into a
separate transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing
agent (collectively referred to as the Transfer Agents) contract with
respect to its shares. The Transfer Agents receive account fees and
asset-based fees that vary according to the account size and type of
account of the shareholders of the respective classes of the fund.
FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of all shareholder
reports, except for proxy statements. For the period, the following
amounts were paid to each transfer agent:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
 
To the Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Series I and the Shareholders of
Fidelity Advisor Growth & Income Fund:
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities,
including the schedule of investments (except for Moody's and Standard
& Poor's ratings), and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Fidelity Advisor
Growth & Income Fund (a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series I) at November
30, 1997, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net
assets and the financial highlights for the periods indicated, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These
financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to
as "financial statements") are the responsibility of Fidelity Advisor
Growth & Income Fund management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted
our audit of these financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audit, which included confirmation of securities at November
30, 1997 by correspondence with the custodian and the application of
alternative auditing procedures where securities purchased were not
yet received by the custodian, provides a reasonable basis for the
opinion expressed above.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although financial turmoil in Pacific Basin countries was a catalyst
for significant volatility in U.S. markets in late October and into
November, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index has risen more than 31%
year-to-date, almost three times its historical annual average.
Meanwhile, bond markets - primarily influenced by a relatively steady
flow of positive news on the inflation front - continued to post solid
returns through the first 11 months of 1997.
While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets
with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that
can help investors plan for their future needs.
First, investors are encouraged to take a long-term view of their
portfolios. If you can afford to leave your money invested through the
inevitable up and down cycles of the financial markets, you will
greatly reduce your vulnerability to any single decline. We know from
experience, for example, that stock prices have gone up over longer
periods of time, have significantly outperformed other types of
investments and have stayed ahead of inflation. 
Second, you can further manage your investing risk through
diversification. A stock mutual fund, for instance, is already
diversified, because it invests in many different companies. You can
increase your diversification further by investing in a number of
different stock funds, or in such other investment categories as
bonds. If you have a short investment time horizon, you might want to
consider moving some of your investment into a money market fund,
which seeks income and a stable share price by investing in
high-quality, short-term investments. Of course, it's important to
remember that there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal of maintaining a stable net asset value of $1.00 per
share, and that these types of funds are neither insured nor
guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a
certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or
quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing
so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising

ADVISOR GROWTH & INCOME FUND - INSTITUTIONAL CLASS
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual
percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment.
Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment,
assuming reinvestment of the class' dividend income and capital gains
(the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in
value). 
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS

S&P 500(REGISTERED TRADEMARK)                   31.11%    
 
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show Institutional Class performance in
percentage terms over a set period - in this case, since the fund
started on December 31, 1996. For example, if you had invested $1,000
in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your
investment would be $1,050. You can compare Institutional Class'
return to the performance of the Standard & Poor's 500 Index - a
widely recognized, unmanaged index of common stocks. This benchmark
includes reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and excludes
the effect of sales charges.
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS take Institutional Class' cumulative
return and show you what would have happened if Institutional Class
had performed at a constant rate each year. These numbers will be
reported once the fund is a year old.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Fidelity Advisor Growth & Income Fund - Institutional
Class on December 31, 1996, when the fund started. As the chart shows,
by November 30, 1997, the value of the investment would have grown to
$12,526 - a 25.26% increase on the initial investment. For comparison,
look at how the S&P 500 did over the same period. With dividends
reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to $13,111 -
a 31.11% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is 
no guarantee of how it will do 
tomorrow. The stock market, 
for example, has a history of 
long-term growth and 
short-term volatility. In turn, the 
share price and return of a 
fund that invests in stocks or 
bonds will vary. That means if 
you sell your shares during a 
market downturn, you might 
lose money. But if you can ride 
out the market's ups and 
downs, you may have a gain.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
 
 
 
MARKET RECAP
The 12 months that ended 
November 30, 1997, was a period 
that truly tested the U.S. stock 
market's resolve. But despite 
frequent shifts in sentiment, an 
interest-rate hike and global 
volatility concerns, U.S. stocks still 
managed to perform well. The 
Standard & Poor's 500 Index - a 
broad gauge of the U.S. stock 
market - returned 28.51% during 
the period, well above the 
market's long-term annual 
average of around 11%. In the first 
half of the period, large-cap stocks 
were responsible for much of the 
market's gain, as investors were 
drawn to stocks with recognizable 
names and consistent 
earnings-growth track records. 
Consequently, stock prices soared 
and enthusiasm was high. The 
Federal Reserve Board - in an 
attempt to halt inflation before it 
appeared - raised a key 
short-term interest rate by 0.25% 
in March. The market paused 
briefly, but then kept rolling as the 
Dow Jones Industrial Average 
reached the 8,000-point mark for 
the first time ever in August. With 
several multinational companies 
announcing earnings shortfalls in 
mid-August, small-cap stocks 
came into favor among investors. 
During August and September, 
the Russell 2000 Index - which 
measures small-cap stock 
performance - was up 9.78% 
while the S&P was down 0.43%. 
Volatility in Asian markets in late 
October sent skittish investors 
running for cover. The Dow slid 
554 points in one day, then 
snapped back the next, reclaiming 
330-plus points. Sensing 
continued fallout from this 
volatility, investors again became 
quality-conscious and large-caps 
regained their perch through 
November.
An interview with Beth Terrana, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Advisor
Growth and Income Fund
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, BETH? 
A. From the fund's commencement date - December 31, 1996 - through
November 30, 1997, the fund's Institutional Class shares returned
25.26%. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index returned 31.11%.
Q. PERFORMANCE SEEMS TO HAVE PICKED UP OVER THE PAST SIX MONTHS. WHAT
WERE SOME OF THE STRATEGIES THAT BENEFITED THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE?
A. While the fund trailed the S&P 500 during the period, I've been
satisfied with recent performance. Part of the reason the fund trailed
the index was the "narrowness" of the market. By that I mean much of
the market's gains were concentrated among a narrow group of
large-capitalization stocks. Stock selection - which is where I focus
most of my efforts - within a number of industries was solid, and was
largely responsible for the fund's absolute performance. Foremost, I'd
highlight retail store investments, where both stock selection and an
industry overweighting - more than double that of the S&P 500 - were
material contributors. Over the past six months, retailing stocks have
been the strongest of the S&P 500 industry sectors. Strong retail
store investments included Consolidated Stores - owner of Kay-Bee Toy
stores - and Gap Inc., which operates several leading-edge apparel
chains. The fund also benefited from stock selection within the
finance, health care and technology sectors. Strong performers in
these industries included BankAmerica, drug-maker Bristol-Myers Squibb
and personal computer-maker Compaq Computer.
Q. YOU INCREASED THE FUND'S RETAIL EXPOSURE. WHY WERE THESE STOCKS
ATTRACTIVE?
A. I detected several positive industry trends that provided a
favorable backdrop for the sector. These trends included a reduction
in store overcapacity - which had afflicted the industry for years -
better management focus on the bottom line and new-found attention to
returns on invested capital. While it would be a stretch to say that
all retailers have recently mended their ways, it was clear to me that
there were a number of attractive stocks with the potential for upward
revaluations of their price-to-earnings (P/E) multiples. The story
behind discounter Wal-Mart - the fund's second-largest retail
investment - illustrates my investment thesis. Following the company's
explosive growth during the `80s - which resulted in very strong stock
appreciation - the firm's returns deteriorated and its stock
dramatically underperformed from 1993 through 1996. Recognizing that
it had a problem, Wal-Mart committed itself to a new financial
discipline - emphasizing returns on its capital base - which has since
helped its earnings growth begin to reaccelerate. Based on these
positive developments, the stock's P/E multiple and price recently
began to rise.
Q. TIME WARNER IS A RELATIVELY NEW TOP 10 HOLDING. WHAT MADE THIS
STOCK ATTRACTIVE?
A. Fundamentally, the company has a number of media franchises -
including Warner Brothers, Time Warner Cable, CNN and Time magazine -
with wide global reach. Also, the company has been focusing intently
on improving its financial returns. For example, previously high
levels of capital expenditures - largely related to its cable
television operations - were expected to peak and then decline, a
development that I felt could enhance the company's free cash flow
dynamics. The potential for this to happen - and for Time Warner to
continue expanding and enhancing its franchises worldwide - made this
stock attractive during the period.
Q. WHICH STOCKS PERFORMED WELL? WHICH WERE DISAPPOINTING?
A. Other positions that performed well included General Electric,
diversified industrial Tyco International and IBM. There haven't been
any major setbacks, but several smaller holdings - including
Columbia/HCA Healthcare, Tupperware and Waste Management - detracted
from performance.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT SIX MONTHS?
A. Given the economic difficulties we saw in Southeast Asia during
October, global economic growth may experience a marginal slowdown. If
there is such a slowdown, stocks with predictable, sustainable
earnings growth likely will outperform economically sensitive
cyclicals and commodities-based firms. Of course, those firms with
significant revenue exposure to the region could be particularly
affected, so I've endeavored to limit the fund's investments in firms
whose earnings are susceptible to a slowdown.

JENNIFER UHRIG ON ASIAN STOCK 
MARKET TURBULENCE AND U.S. 
TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES:
"The turbulence we saw in the 
financial markets in Southeast 
Asia during the second half of 1997 
- - and its immediate impact on 
the earnings of some U.S. 
corporations - demonstrate the 
link between economies around 
the world. In particular, the Asian 
crisis has created a lot of 
uncertainty for U.S. technology 
companies. Southeast Asia has 
been a very high growth area for 
personal computers and related 
electronic products. Slower 
economic growth in this corner of 
the world may hurt demand in the 
future. On the other hand, many 
U.S. technology companies buy 
components and even finished 
goods in the Far East. Weaker 
currencies make products 
manufactured in these countries 
cheaper to build and lower the cost 
of goods for U.S. companies. This 
may enable U.S. companies to 
lower prices and stimulate 
demand for their products outside 
of the Far East. Another positive is 
that Asian competitors may have 
less access to capital in the future 
and may not be able to find funding 
to increase capacity. Supply 
increases in the Far East have been 
a perennial problem for U.S. tech 
companies - especially 
semiconductor manufacturers - 
because additional supply puts 
pressure on prices. To the extent 
that less Asian capacity is added 
in the future, this could be a 
positive for U.S. companies in the 
longer-term."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended November 30, 1997
 
 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Advisor Growth & Income Fund(the fund) is a fund of Fidelity
Advisor Series I (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited
number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management
investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.
The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C and Institutional
Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting
privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its
distribution plan. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital
gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain
fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata
basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to
the total net assets of the fund. Each class of shares differs in its
respective distribution, transfer agent, registration, and certain
other class-specific fees, expenses, and expense reductions.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles which permit management to
make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial
statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting
policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are
readily available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale
price, at the closing bid price. Securities (including restricted
securities) for which exchange quotations are not readily available
(and in certain cases debt securities which trade on an exchange) are
valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair
value as determined in good faith under consistently applied
procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.
Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less
for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized
cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate
current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Income
receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the
prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates of the transactions.
Purchases and sales of securities are translated into U.S. dollars at
the contractual currency exchange rates established at the time of
each trade.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions
represent net gains and losses from sales and maturities of foreign
currency contracts and foreign currency options, disposition of
foreign currencies, and the difference between the amount of net
investment income accrued and the U.S. dollar amount actually
received. The effects of changes in 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION - CONTINUED
foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are
included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on
investment securities.
INCOME TAXES. The fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment
company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. By so
qualifying, the fund will not be subject to income taxes to the extent
that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for its
fiscal year. The schedule of investments includes information
regarding income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the
ex-dividend date may have passed, are recorded as soon as the fund is
informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in
dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the
securities received. Interest income is accrued as earned. Investment
income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of
such taxes is uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a
fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned
between the funds in the trust.
PREPAID EXPENSES. Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) bears
all organizational expenses except for registering and qualifying each
class and shares of each class for distribution under federal and
state securities law. These expenses are borne by each class and
amortized over one year.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are
declared separately for each class.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. These differences may result in distribution
reclassifications.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital.
Undistributed net investment income and accumulated undistributed net
realized gain (loss) on investments and foreign currency transactions
may include temporary book and tax basis differences which will
reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable income or gain remaining
at fiscal year end is distributed in the following year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of
trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the
basis of identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The fund generally uses foreign currency
contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated
securities. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign
currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts'
terms. The U.S. dollar value of foreign currency contracts is
determined using contractual currency exchange rates established at
the time of each trade. The cost of the foreign currency contracts is
included in the cost basis of the associated investment.
TAXABLE CENTRAL CASH FUND. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by
the Securities and Exchange Commission(the SEC), the fund may invest
in the Taxable Central Cash Fund (the Cash Fund) managed by FMR Texas,
Inc., an affiliate of FMR. The Cash Fund is an open-end money market
fund available only to investment companies and other accounts managed
by FMR and its affiliates. The Cash Fund seeks preservation of
capital, liquidity, and current income by investing in U.S. Treasury
securities and repurchase agreements for these securities. Income
distributions from the Cash Fund are declared daily and paid monthly
from net interest income. Income distributions received by the fund
are recorded as interest income in the accompanying financial
statements.
FUTURES CONTRACTS. The fund may use futures contracts to manage its
exposure to the stock and bond markets and to fluctuations in interest
rates and currency values. Buying futures tends to increase the fund's
exposure to the underlying instrument, while selling futures tends to
decrease the fund's exposure to the underlying instrument or hedge
other fund investments. Losses may arise from changes in the value of
the underlying instruments or if the counterparties do not perform
under the contracts' terms. Gains (losses) are realized upon the
expiration or closing of the futures contracts. Futures contracts are
valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of
trade or exchange on which they are traded.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS. 
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $278,464,405 and $65,450,849, respectively.
The market value of futures contracts opened and closed during the
period amounted to $42,876,802 and $43,012,172, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. 
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a
monthly fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a
fixed individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of
the fund. The group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of
rates and is based on the monthly average net assets of all the mutual
funds advised by FMR. 
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
MANAGEMENT FEE - CONTINUED
The rates ranged from .2500% to .5200% for the period. The annual
individual fund fee rate is .20%. In the event that these rates were
lower than the contractual rates in effect during the period, FMR
voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted in the same
or a lower management fee. For the period, the management fee was
equivalent to an annualized rate of .50% of average net assets 
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the
1940 Act, the Trustees have adopted separate distribution plans with
respect to each class of shares (collectively referred to as "the
Plans"). Under certain of the Plans, the class pays Fidelity
Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a distribution
and service fee. This fee is based on the following annual rates of
the average net assets of each applicable class:
CLASS A     .25%     
 
CLASS T     .50%     
 
CLASS B     1.00%*   
 
CLASS C     1.00%*   
 
* .75% REPRESENTS A DISTRIBUTION FEE AND .25% REPRESENTS A SHAREHOLDER
SERVICE FEE.
For the period, each class paid FDC the following amounts, a portion
of which was paid to securities dealers, banks and other financial
institutions for the distribution of each class' applicable shares,
and providing shareholder support services:
           PAID TO    DEALERS'

           378,995    290,348    
 
Under the Plans, FMR or FDC may use its resources to pay
administrative and promotional expenses related to the sale of each
class' shares. The Plans also authorize payments to third parties that
assist in the sale of each class' shares or render shareholder support
services. 
SALES LOAD. FDC receives a front-end sales charge of up to 5.75% for
selling Class A shares (5.25% prior to August  1, 1997), and 3.50% for
selling Class T shares of the fund, respectively. FDC receives the
proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges levied on Class B share
redemptions occurring within six years of purchase and Class C share
redemptions occurring within one year of purchase. Contingent deferred
sales charges are based on declining rates ranging from 5% to 1% for
Class B and 1% for Class C, of

the lesser of the cost of shares at the initial date of purchase or
the net asset value of the redeemed shares, excluding any reinvested
dividends and capital gains. 
For the period, FDC received the following sales charge amounts
related to each class, a portion of which is paid to securities
dealers, banks, and other financial institutions:

* WHEN CLASS B SHARES ARE INITIALLY SOLD, FDC PAYS COMMISSIONS FROM
ITS OWN RESOURCES TO DEALERS THROUGH WHICH THE SALES ARE MADE.
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Each class of the fund has entered into a
separate transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing
agent (collectively referred to as the Transfer Agents) contract with
respect to its shares. The Transfer Agents receive account fees and
asset-based fees that vary according to the account size and type of
account of the shareholders of the respective classes of the fund.
FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of all shareholder
reports, except for proxy statements. For the period, the following
amounts were paid to each transfer agent:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
 
To the Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Series I and the Shareholders of
Fidelity Advisor Growth & Income Fund:
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities,
including the schedule of investments (except for Moody's and Standard
& Poor's ratings), and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Fidelity Advisor
Growth & Income Fund (a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series I) at November
30, 1997, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net
assets and the financial highlights for the periods indicated, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These
financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to
as "financial statements") are the responsibility of Fidelity Advisor
Growth & Income Fund management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted
our audit of these financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audit, which included confirmation of securities at November
30, 1997 by correspondence with the custodian and the application of
alternative auditing procedures where securities purchased were not
yet received by the custodian, provides a reasonable basis for the
opinion expressed above.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
 
 
(photo_of_Edward_C_Johnson_3d)
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although financial turmoil in Pacific Basin countries was a catalyst
for significant volatility in U.S. markets in late October and into
November, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index has risen more than 31%
year-to-date, almost three times its historical annual average.
Meanwhile, bond markets - primarily influenced by a relatively steady
flow of positive news on the inflation front - continued to post solid
returns through the first 11 months of 1997.
While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets
with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that
can help investors plan for their future needs.
First, investors are encouraged to take a long-term view of their
portfolios. If you can afford to leave your money invested through the
inevitable up and down cycles of the financial markets, you will
greatly reduce your vulnerability to any single decline. We know from
experience, for example, that stock prices have gone up over longer
periods of time, have significantly outperformed other types of
investments and have stayed ahead of inflation. 
Second, you can further manage your investing risk through
diversification. A stock mutual fund, for instance, is already
diversified, because it invests in many different companies. You can
increase your diversification further by investing in a number of
different stock funds, or in such other investment categories as
bonds. If you have a short investment time horizon, you might want to
consider moving some of your investment into a money market fund,
which seeks income and a stable share price by investing in
high-quality, short-term investments. Of course, it's important to
remember that there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal of maintaining a stable net asset value of $1.00 per
share, and that these types of funds are neither insured nor
guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a
certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or
quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing
so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising
market, nor will you buy all your shares at market highs. While this
strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - won't assure a profit or
protect you from a loss in a declining market, it should help you
lower the average cost of your purchases.
Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with
your investments.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
ADVISOR LARGE CAP FUND - CLASS A
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual
percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment.
Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment,
assuming reinvestment of the class' dividend income and capital gains
(the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in
value). The initial offering of Class A shares took place on September
3, 1996. Class A shares bear a 0.25% 12b-1 fee that is reflected in
returns after September 3, 1996. Returns prior to September 3, 1996
are those of Class T and reflect Class T's 0.50% 12b-1 fee. Effective
August 1, 1997, the maximum 5.25% sales charge on Class A shares was
increased to 5.75%. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class
expenses, the total returns would have been lower.

CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show Class A's performance in percentage
terms over a set period - in this case, one year or since the fund
started on February 20, 1996. For example, if you had invested $1,000
in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your
investment would be $1,050. You can compare Class A's returns to the
performance of the Standard & Poor's 500 Index - a widely recognized,
unmanaged index of common stocks. To measure how Class A's performance
stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the growth funds
average, which reflects the performance of mutual funds with similar
objectives tracked by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. The past one
year average represents a peer group of 791 mutual funds. These
benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and
exclude the effect of sales charges.

PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual
percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment.
Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment,
assuming reinvestment of the class' dividend income and capital gains
(the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in
value). If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the
life of fund total returns would have been lower.

PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual
percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment.
Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment,
assuming reinvestment of the class' dividend income and capital gains
(the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in
value). The initial offering of Class C shares took place on November
3, 1997. Class C shares bear a 1.00% 12b-1/shareholder service fee.
Returns between February 20, 1996 and November 3, 1997 are those of
Class B, and reflect Class B's 1.00% 12b-1/shareholder service fee.
Class C's contingent deferred sales charge included in the past one
year total return figure is 1.00%. If Fidelity had not reimbursed
certain class expenses, the total returns would have been lower.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
 
 
 
MARKET RECAP
The 12 months that ended 
November 30, 1997, was a period 
that truly tested the U.S. stock 
market's resolve. But despite 
frequent shifts in sentiment, an 
interest-rate hike and global 
volatility concerns, U.S. stocks still 
managed to perform well. The 
Standard & Poor's 500 Index - a 
broad gauge of the U.S. stock 
market - returned 28.51% during 
the period, well above the market's 
long-term annual average of 
around 11%. In the first half of the 
period, large-cap stocks were 
responsible for much of the 
market's gain, as investors were 
drawn to stocks with recognizable 
names and consistent 
earnings-growth track records. 
Consequently, stock prices soared 
and enthusiasm was high. The 
Federal Reserve Board - in an 
attempt to halt inflation before it 
appeared - raised a key 
short-term interest rate by 0.25% in 
March. The market paused briefly, 
but then kept rolling as the Dow 
Jones Industrial Average reached 
the 8,000-point mark for the first 
time ever in August. With several 
multinational companies 
announcing earnings shortfalls in 
mid-August, small-cap stocks came 
into favor among investors. 
During August and September, the 
Russell 2000 Index - which 
measures small-cap stock 
performance - was up 9.78% 
while the S&P was down 0.43%. 
Volatility in Asian markets in late 
October sent skittish investors 
running for cover. The Dow slid 
554 points in one day, then 
snapped back the next, reclaiming 
330-plus points. Sensing continued 
fallout from this volatility, investors 
again became quality-conscious 
and large-caps regained their 
perch through November.
An interview with Thomas Sprague, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity
Advisor Large Cap Fund
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, TOM?
A. For the 12 months that ended November 30, 1997, the fund's Class A,
Class T, Class B and Class C shares returned 18.82%, 18.89%, 18.18%
and 18.18%, respectively. The growth funds average, as tracked by
Lipper Analytical Services, returned 22.00% in that time, while the
Standard & Poor's 500 Index returned 28.51%.
Q. WHAT CAUSED THE FUND TO PERFORM AS IT DID?
A. Shifting market tides played a big role. Through much of the first
half of the period, the stock market was dominated by the largest 25
or 30 stocks in the S&P 500. When the market is that narrow, even
funds with a large-cap bias such as Advisor Large Cap can have
difficulty competing against the S&P. During the second half, though,
this trend was reversed. Several big companies announced earnings
shortfalls and smaller stocks began to outperform. This "broadening"
helped the fund versus the index, but not against its growth fund
peers, many of which have a small- to medium-cap bias. 
Q. WERE THERE ANY OTHER FACTORS THAT INFLUENCED PERFORMANCE?
A. Energy and retail stocks played big roles. Within the energy group,
companies that provide equipment and services to help exploration
companies search for oil and gas enjoyed a nice run. Energy companies
such as Exxon, Mobil and Texaco increased their exploration activity,
and demand for drilling equipment and services continued to be very
high. The fund's positions in Schlumberger, Halliburton and Dresser
benefited as a result. Within the retail sector - which accounted for
around 7% of the fund at the end of the period - several supermarket
and pharmacy chains benefited from cost-cutting programs.
Q. DID YOU FOLLOW ANY PARTICULAR THEMES DURING THE PERIOD?
A. One interesting area revolved around the much-discussed "year 2000"
issue. Most computer programs that have been written in the past 20 or
30 years have two entry fields for the year instead of four. For
instance, most computer systems read "97" as being 1997. When the year
2000 arrives, these computers will read "00" as being 1900, which has
the potential to cause significant problems. The fund's position in
Comdisco - one of its top 10 holdings at the close of the period - was
a play on this. Part of Comdisco's business is disaster recovery: If a
company's computer network shuts down due to unforeseen circumstances,
Comdisco's reserve systems can help get that company up and running
again quickly. These same reserve computer systems are a logical
choice as a testing ground for updated year-2000 compliant software.
Companies that have these capabilities could benefit from additional
demand in 1998 and 1999. Several other fund holdings - including
AccuStaff and Analysts International which provide software
programming services - could also benefit.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR TAKE ON THE PROBLEMS IN ASIAN MARKETS AND HOW WAS THE
FUND AFFECTED?
A. I think the crisis in Southeast Asia reflects a serious,
fundamental change that will affect financial markets everywhere.
We've already seen business slowdowns from U.S. companies that have
exposure to that region. Within the fund, semiconductor-related stocks
were hit the hardest. The typical high-tech company generates 10% to
20% of its sales in Southeast Asia, and since that region's economic
growth has now been stunted, these companies may see sales growth
suffer. I'm worried that this weakness could spread to other countries
such as China and Japan, and other industries such as financial
services and energy. Some of the fund's holdings, however -
particularly those that have manufacturing operations in Southeast
Asia - may benefit from an expense point of view more than they'll
suffer from a sales point of view. Overall, though, I'd characterize
the market events of late October as being much more of a negative
than a positive.
Q. CAN YOU GRADE THE PERFORMANCE OF SOME OF THE FUND'S INDIVIDUAL
STOCKS?
A. Comdisco was a strong performer, as was health care stock Bergen
Brunswig, which is in the process of being purchased by Cardinal
Health. On the negative side, not owning more of the expensive
pharmaceutical stocks such as Lilly and Pfizer hurt performance.
Additionally, the fund's position in Vencor - a supplier to the
nursing home industry - suffered from tightening industry regulations.
The fund no longer owns this stock.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
A. I'm concerned that the comfortable economic situation we've had for
the past few years may be over. Third-quarter corporate earnings
trailed off some, and the international volatility we've seen may
linger for a while. Consumer nondurable industries - such as food and
health care - may be attractive in the next few months because demand
appears relatively stable and exposure tends to be limited to the U.S.
and Europe.

JENNIFER UHRIG ON ASIAN STOCK 
MARKET TURBULENCE AND U.S. 
TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES:
"The turbulence we saw in the 
financial markets in Southeast 
Asia during the second half of 1997 
- - and its immediate impact on 
the earnings of some U.S. 
corporations - demonstrate the 
link between economies around 
the world. In particular, the Asian 
crisis has created a lot of 
uncertainty for U.S. technology 
companies. Southeast Asia has 
been a very high growth area for 
personal computers and related 
electronic products. Slower 
economic growth in this corner of 
the world may hurt demand in the 
future. On the other hand, many 
U.S. technology companies buy 
components and even finished 
goods in the Far East. Weaker 
currencies make products 
manufactured in these countries 
cheaper to build and lower the cost 
of goods for U.S. companies. This 
may enable U.S. companies to 
lower prices and stimulate 
demand for their products outside 
of the Far East. Another positive is 
that Asian competitors may have 
less access to capital in the future 
and may not be able to find funding 
to increase capacity. Supply 
increases in the Far East have been 
a perennial problem for U.S. tech 
companies - especially 
semiconductor manufacturers - 
because additional supply puts 
pressure on prices. To the extent 
that less Asian capacity is added 
in the future, this could be a 
positive for U.S. companies in the 
longer-term."

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Advisor Large Cap Fund(the fund) is a fund of Fidelity
Advisor Series I (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited
number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management
investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.
The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional
Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting
privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its
distribution plan. The fund commenced sale of Class C shares on
November 3, 1997. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital
gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain
fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata
basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to
the total net assets of the fund. Each class of shares differs in its
respective distribution, transfer agent, registration, and certain
other class-specific fees, expenses, and expense reductions.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles which permit management to
make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial
statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting
policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are
readily available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale
price, at the closing bid price. Securities for which exchange
quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt
securities which trade on an exchange) are valued primarily using
dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair value as determined in
good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general
supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities with
remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are
not readily available are valued at amortized cost or original cost
plus accrued interest, both of which approximate current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Income
receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the
prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates of the transactions.
Purchases and sales of securities are translated into U.S. dollars at
the contractual currency exchange rates established at the time of
each trade.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions
represent net gains and losses from sales and maturities of foreign
currency contracts , disposition of foreign currencies, and the
difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and the
U.S. dollar amount actually received. The effects of changes in
foreign currency 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION - CONTINUED
exchange rates on investments in securities are included with the net
realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to
income taxes to the extent that it distributes substantially all of
its taxable income for its fiscal year. The schedule of investments
includes information regarding income taxes under the caption "Income
Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the
ex-dividend date may have passed, are recorded as soon as the fund is
informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in
dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the
securities received. Interest income is accrued as earned. Investment
income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of
such taxes is uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a
fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned
between the funds in the trust.
PREPAID EXPENSES. Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) bears
all organizational expenses except for registering and qualifying
Class C and shares of Class C for distribution under federal and state
securities law. These expenses are borne by Class C and amortized over
one year.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are
declared separately for each class. 
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. These differences, which may result in
distribution reclassifications, are primarily due to differing
treatments for net operating losses and losses deferred due to wash
sales. The fund also utilized earnings and profits distributed to
shareholders on redemption of shares as a part of the dividends paid
deduction for income tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital.
Accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments may
include temporary book and tax basis differences that will reverse in
a subsequent period. Any taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal
year end is distributed in the following year.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of
trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the
basis of identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The fund generally uses foreign currency
contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated
securities. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign
currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts'
terms. The U.S. dollar value of foreign currency contracts is
determined using contractual currency exchange rates established at
the time of each trade. The cost of the foreign currency contracts is
included in the cost basis of the associated investment.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund, along with other
affiliated entities of FMR, may transfer uninvested cash balances into
one or more joint trading accounts. These balances are invested in one
or more repurchase agreements for U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency
obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The underlying U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency
securities are transferred to an account of the fund, or to the Joint
Trading Account, at a bank custodian. The securities are
marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the
principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued
interest). FMR, the fund's investment adviser, is responsible for
determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in
accordance with the market value requirements stated above. 
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS. 
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $70,438,248 and $53,486,844, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. 
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a
monthly fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a
fixed individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of
the fund. The group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of
rates and is based on the monthly average net assets of all the mutual
funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .2500% to .5200% for the
period. The annual individual fund fee rate is .30%. In the event that
these rates were lower than the contractual rates in effect during the
period, FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted
in the same or a lower management fee. For the period, the management
fee was equivalent to an annual rate of .60% of average net assets.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the
1940 Act, the Trustees have adopted separate distribution plans with
respect to each class of shares (collectively referred to as "the
Plans"). Under certain of the Plans, the class pays Fidelity
Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a distribution
and service fee. This fee is based on the following annual rates of
the average net assets of each applicable class:
CLASS A     .25%      
 
CLASS T     .50%      
 
CLASS B     1.00% *   
 
CLASS C     1.00% *   
 
* .75% REPRESENTS A DISTRIBUTION FEE AND .25% REPRESENTS A SHAREHOLDER
SERVICE FEE.
For the period, each class paid FDC the following amounts, a portion
of which was paid to securities dealers, banks and other financial
institutions for the distribution of each class' applicable shares,
and providing shareholder support services:
           PAID TO     DEALERS'

           $ 343,330   $ 222,839   
 
Under the Plans, FMR or FDC may use its resources to pay
administrative and promotional expenses related to the sale of each
class' shares. The Plans also authorize payments to third parties that
assist in the sale of each class' shares or render shareholder support
services. 
SALES LOAD. FDC receives a front-end sales charge of up to 5.75% for
selling Class A shares (5.25% prior to August 1, 1997), and 3.50% for
selling Class T shares of the fund, respectively. FDC receives the
proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges levied on Class B share
redemptions occurring within six years of purchase (five years prior
to January 2, 1997) and Class C share redemptions occurring within one
year of purchase. Contingent deferred sales charges are based on
declining rates ranging from 5% to 1% (4% to 1% prior to January 2,
1997) for Class B and 1% for Class C, of the lesser of the cost of
shares at the initial date of purchase or the net asset value of the
redeemed shares, excluding any reinvested dividends and capital gains.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
 
To the Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Series I and the Shareholders of
Fidelity Advisor Large Cap Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities
of Fidelity Advisor Series I: Fidelity Advisor Large Cap Fund,
including the schedule of portfolio investments, as of November 30,
1997, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended,
the statement of changes in net assets for the year ended November 30,
1997 and for the period February 20, 1996 (commencement of operations)
to November 30, 1996 and the financial highlights of Class A, Class T,
Class B, Class C and Institutional Class for each of the periods
indicated therein. These financial statements and financial highlights
are the responsibility of the fund's management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial
highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 1997 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Fidelity Advisor Series I: Fidelity Advisor
Large Cap Fund as of November 30, 1997, the results of its operations
for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for the year
ended November 30, 1997 and for the period February 20, 1996
(commencement of operations) to November 30, 1996 and the financial
highlights of Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C and Institutional
Class for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although financial turmoil in Pacific Basin countries was a catalyst
for significant volatility in U.S. markets in late October and into
November, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index has risen more than 31%
year-to-date, almost three times its historical annual average.
Meanwhile, bond markets - primarily influenced by a relatively steady
flow of positive news on the inflation front - continued to post solid
returns through the first 11 months of 1997.
While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets
with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that
can help investors plan for their future needs.
First, investors are encouraged to take a long-term view of their
portfolios. If you can afford to leave your money invested through the
inevitable up and down cycles of the financial markets, you will
greatly reduce your vulnerability to any single decline. We know from
experience, for example, that stock prices have gone up over longer
periods of time, have significantly outperformed other types of
investments and have stayed ahead of inflation. 
Second, you can further manage your investing risk through
diversification. A stock mutual fund, for instance, is already
diversified, because it invests in many different companies. You can
increase your diversification further by investing in a number of
different stock funds, or in such other investment categories as
bonds. If you have a short investment time horizon, you might want to
consider moving some of your investment into a money market fund,
which seeks income and a stable share price by investing in
high-quality, short-term investments. Of course, it's important to
remember that there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal of maintaining a stable net asset value of $1.00 per
share, and that these types of funds are neither insured nor
guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a
certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or
quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing
so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising
market, nor will you buy all your shares at market highs. While this
strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - won't assure a profit or
protect you from a loss in a declining market, it should help you
lower the average cost of your purchases.
Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with
your investments.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
ADVISOR LARGE CAP FUND - INSTITUTIONAL CLASS
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual
percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment.
Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment,
assuming reinvestment of the class' dividend income and capital gains
(the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in
value). If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the
life of fund total returns would have been lower.

CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show Institutional Class' performance in
percentage terms over a set period - in this case, one year or since
the fund started on February 20, 1996. For example, if you had
invested $1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the
value of your investment would be $1,050. You can compare the
Institutional Class' returns to the performance of the Standard &
Poor's 500 Index - a widely recognized, unmanaged index of common
stocks. To measure how Institutional Class' performance stacked up
against its peers, you can compare it to the growth funds average,
which reflects the performance of mutual funds with similar objectives
tracked by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. The past one year average
represents a peer group of 791 mutual funds. These benchmarks include
reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude the effect
of sales charges.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND
 
$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Fidelity Advisor Large Cap Fund - Institutional Class on
February 20, 1996, when the fund started. As the chart shows, by
November 30, 1997, the value of the investment would have grown to
$14,160 - a 41.60% increase on the initial investment. For comparison,
look at how the S&P 500 did over the same period. With dividends and
capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would
have grown to $15,453 - a 54.53% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is 
no guarantee of how it will do 
tomorrow. The stock market, 
for example, has a history of 
long-term growth and 
short-term volatility. In turn, the 
share price and return of a 
fund that invests in stocks will 
vary. That means if you sell 
your shares during a market 
downturn, you might lose 
money. But if you can ride out 
the market's ups and downs, 
you may have a gain.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
 
 
 
MARKET RECAP
The 12 months that ended 
November 30, 1997, was a period 
that truly tested the U.S. stock 
market's resolve. But despite 
frequent shifts in sentiment, an 
interest-rate hike and global 
volatility concerns, U.S. stocks still 
managed to perform well. The 
Standard & Poor's 500 Index - a 
broad gauge of the U.S. stock 
market - returned 28.51% during 
the period, well above the market's 
long-term annual average of 
around 11%. In the first half of the 
period, large-cap stocks were 
responsible for much of the 
market's gain, as investors were 
drawn to stocks with recognizable 
names and consistent 
earnings-growth track records. 
Consequently, stock prices soared 
and enthusiasm was high. The 
Federal Reserve Board - in an 
attempt to halt inflation before it 
appeared - raised a key 
short-term interest rate by 0.25% in 
March. The market paused briefly, 
but then kept rolling as the Dow 
Jones Industrial Average reached 
the 8,000-point mark for the first 
time ever in August. With several 
multinational companies 
announcing earnings shortfalls in 
mid-August, small-cap stocks came 
into favor among investors. 
During August and September, the 
Russell 2000 Index - which 
measures small-cap stock 
performance - was up 9.78% 
while the S&P was down 0.43%. 
Volatility in Asian markets in late 
October sent skittish investors 
running for cover. The Dow slid 
554 points in one day, then 
snapped back the next, reclaiming 
330-plus points. Sensing continued 
fallout from this volatility, investors 
again became quality-conscious 
and large-caps regained their 
perch through November.
An interview with Thomas Sprague, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity
Advisor Large Cap Fund
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, TOM?
A. For the 12 months that ended November 30, 1997, the fund's
Institutional Class shares returned 19.39%. The growth funds average,
as tracked by Lipper Analytical Services, returned 22.00% in that
time, while the Standard & Poor's 500 Index returned 28.51%. 
Q. WHAT CAUSED THE FUND TO PERFORM AS IT DID?
A. Shifting market tides played a big role. Through much of the first
half of the period, the stock market was dominated by the largest 25
or 30 stocks in the S&P 500. When the market is that narrow, even
funds with a large-cap bias such as Advisor Large Cap can have
difficulty competing against the S&P. During the second half, though,
this trend was reversed. Several big companies announced earnings
shortfalls and smaller stocks began to outperform. This "broadening"
helped the fund versus the index, but not against its growth fund
peers, many of which have a small- to medium-cap bias. 
Q. WERE THERE ANY OTHER FACTORS THAT INFLUENCED PERFORMANCE?
A. Energy and retail stocks played big roles. Within the energy group,
companies that provide equipment and services to help exploration
companies search for oil and gas enjoyed a nice run. Energy companies
such as Exxon, Mobil and Texaco increased their exploration activity,
and demand for drilling equipment and services continued to be very
high. The fund's positions in Schlumberger, Halliburton and Dresser
benefited as a result. Within the retail sector - which accounted for
around 7% of the fund at the end of the period - several supermarket
and pharmacy chains benefited from cost-cutting programs.
Q. DID YOU FOLLOW ANY PARTICULAR THEMES DURING THE PERIOD?
A. One interesting area revolved around the much-discussed "year 2000"
issue. Most computer programs that have been written in the past 20 or
30 years have two entry fields for the year instead of four. For
instance, most computer systems read "97" as being 1997. When the year
2000 arrives, these computers will read "00" as being 1900, which has
the potential to cause significant problems. The fund's position in
Comdisco - one of its top 10 holdings at the close of the period - was
a play on this. Part of Comdisco's business is disaster recovery: If a
company's computer network shuts down due to unforeseen circumstances,
Comdisco's reserve systems can help get that company up and running
again quickly. These same reserve computer systems are a logical
choice as a testing ground for updated year-2000 compliant software.
Companies that have these capabilities could benefit from additional
demand in 1998 and 1999. Several other fund holdings - including
AccuStaff and Analysts International which provide software
programming services - could also benefit.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR TAKE ON THE PROBLEMS IN ASIAN MARKETS AND HOW WAS THE
FUND AFFECTED?
A. I think the crisis in Southeast Asia reflects a serious,
fundamental change that will affect financial markets everywhere.
We've already seen business slowdowns from U.S. companies that have
exposure to that region. Within the fund, semiconductor-related stocks
were hit the hardest. The typical high-tech company generates 10% to
20% of its sales in Southeast Asia, and since that region's economic
growth has now been stunted, these companies may see sales growth
suffer. I'm worried that this weakness could spread to other countries
such as China and Japan, and other industries such as financial
services and energy. Some of the fund's holdings, however -
particularly those that have manufacturing operations in Southeast
Asia - may benefit from an expense point of view more than they'll
suffer from a sales point of view. Overall, though, I'd characterize
the market events of late October as being much more of a negative
than a positive.
Q. CAN YOU GRADE THE PERFORMANCE OF SOME OF THE FUND'S INDIVIDUAL
STOCKS?
A. Comdisco was a strong performer, as was health care stock Bergen
Brunswig, which is in the process of being purchased by Cardinal
Health. On the negative side, not owning more of the expensive
pharmaceutical stocks such as Lilly and Pfizer hurt performance.
Additionally, the fund's position in Vencor - a supplier to the
nursing home industry - suffered from tightening industry regulations.
The fund no longer owns this stock.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
A. I'm concerned that the comfortable economic situation we've had for
the past few years may be over. Third-quarter corporate earnings
trailed off some, and the international volatility we've seen may
linger for a while. Consumer nondurable industries - such as food and
health care - may be attractive in the next few months because demand
appears relatively stable and exposure tends to be limited to the U.S.
and Europe.

JENNIFER UHRIG ON ASIAN STOCK 
MARKET TURBULENCE AND U.S. 
TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES:
"The turbulence we saw in the 
financial markets in Southeast 
Asia during the second half of 1997 
- - and its immediate impact on 
the earnings of some U.S. 
corporations - demonstrate the 
link between economies around 
the world. In particular, the Asian 
crisis has created a lot of 
uncertainty for U.S. technology 
companies. Southeast Asia has 
been a very high growth area for 
personal computers and related 
electronic products. Slower 
economic growth in this corner of 
the world may hurt demand in the 
future. On the other hand, many 
U.S. technology companies buy 
components and even finished 
goods in the Far East. Weaker 
currencies make products 
manufactured in these countries 
cheaper to build and lower the cost 
of goods for U.S. companies. This 
may enable U.S. companies to 
lower prices and stimulate 
demand for their products outside 
of the Far East. Another positive is 
that Asian competitors may have 
less access to capital in the future 
and may not be able to find funding 
to increase capacity. Supply 
increases in the Far East have been 
a perennial problem for U.S. tech 
companies - especially 
semiconductor manufacturers - 
because additional supply puts 
pressure on prices. To the extent 
that less Asian capacity is added 
in the future, this could be a 
positive for U.S. companies in the 
longer-term."

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Advisor Large Cap Fund(the fund) is a fund of Fidelity
Advisor Series I (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited
number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management
investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.
The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional
Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting
privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its
distribution plan. The fund commenced sale of Class C shares on
November 3, 1997. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital
gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain
fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata
basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to
the total net assets of the fund. Each class of shares differs in its
respective distribution, transfer agent, registration, and certain
other class-specific fees, expenses, and expense reductions.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles which permit management to
make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial
statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting
policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are
readily available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale
price, at the closing bid price. Securities for which exchange
quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt
securities which trade on an exchange) are valued primarily using
dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair value as determined in
good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general
supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities with
remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are
not readily available are valued at amortized cost or original cost
plus accrued interest, both of which approximate current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Income
receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the
prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates of the transactions.
Purchases and sales of securities are translated into U.S. dollars at
the contractual currency exchange rates established at the time of
each trade.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions
represent net gains and losses from sales and maturities of foreign
currency contracts , disposition of foreign currencies, and the
difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and the
U.S. dollar amount actually received. The effects of changes in
foreign currency 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION - CONTINUED
exchange rates on investments in securities are included with the net
realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to
income taxes to the extent that it distributes substantially all of
its taxable income for its fiscal year. The schedule of investments
includes information regarding income taxes under the caption "Income
Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the
ex-dividend date may have passed, are recorded as soon as the fund is
informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in
dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the
securities received. Interest income is accrued as earned. Investment
income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of
such taxes is uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a
fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned
between the funds in the trust.
PREPAID EXPENSES. Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) bears
all organizational expenses except for registering and qualifying
Class C and shares of Class C for distribution under federal and state
securities law. These expenses are borne by Class C and amortized over
one year.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are
declared separately for each class. 
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. These differences, which may result in
distribution reclassifications, are primarily due to differing
treatments for net operating losses and losses deferred due to wash
sales. The fund also utilized earnings and profits distributed to
shareholders on redemption of shares as a part of the dividends paid
deduction for income tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital.
Accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments may
include temporary book and tax basis differences that will reverse in
a subsequent period. Any taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal
year end is distributed in the following year.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of
trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the
basis of identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The fund generally uses foreign currency
contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated
securities. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign
currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts'
terms. The U.S. dollar value of foreign currency contracts is
determined using contractual currency exchange rates established at
the time of each trade. The cost of the foreign currency contracts is
included in the cost basis of the associated investment.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund, along with other
affiliated entities of FMR, may transfer uninvested cash balances into
one or more joint trading accounts. These balances are invested in one
or more repurchase agreements for U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency
obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The underlying U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency
securities are transferred to an account of the fund, or to the Joint
Trading Account, at a bank custodian. The securities are
marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the
principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued
interest). FMR, the fund's investment adviser, is responsible for
determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in
accordance with the market value requirements stated above. 
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS. 
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $70,438,248 and $53,486,844, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. 
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a
monthly fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a
fixed individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of
the fund. The group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of
rates and is based on the monthly average net assets of all the mutual
funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .2500% to .5200% for the
period. The annual individual fund fee rate is .30%. In the event that
these rates were lower than the contractual rates in effect during the
period, FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted
in the same or a lower management fee. For the period, the management
fee was equivalent to an annual rate of .60% of average net assets.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the
1940 Act, the Trustees have adopted separate distribution plans with
respect to each class of shares (collectively referred to as "the
Plans"). Under certain of the Plans, the class pays Fidelity
Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a distribution
and service fee. This fee is based on the following annual rates of
the average net assets of each applicable class:
CLASS A     .25%      
 
CLASS T     .50%      
 
CLASS B     1.00% *   
 
CLASS C     1.00% *   
 
* .75% REPRESENTS A DISTRIBUTION FEE AND .25% REPRESENTS A SHAREHOLDER
SERVICE FEE.
For the period, each class paid FDC the following amounts, a portion
of which was paid to securities dealers, banks and other financial
institutions for the distribution of each class' applicable shares,
and providing shareholder support services:
           PAID TO     DEALERS'

           $ 343,330   $ 222,839   
 
Under the Plans, FMR or FDC may use its resources to pay
administrative and promotional expenses related to the sale of each
class' shares. The Plans also authorize payments to third parties that
assist in the sale of each class' shares or render shareholder support

SALES LOAD. FDC receives a front-end sales charge of up to 5.75% for
selling Class A shares (5.25% prior to August 1, 1997), and 3.50% for
selling Class T shares of the fund, respectively. FDC receives the
proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges levied on Class B share
redemptions occurring within six years of purchase (five years prior
to January 2, 1997) and Class C share redemptions occurring within one
year of purchase. Contingent deferred sales charges are based on
declining rates ranging from 5% to 1% (4% to 1% prior to January 2,
1997) for Class B and 1% for Class C, of the lesser of the cost of
shares at the initial date of purchase or the net asset value of the

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
 
To the Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Series I and the Shareholders of
Fidelity Advisor Large Cap Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities
of Fidelity Advisor Series I: Fidelity Advisor Large Cap Fund,
including the schedule of portfolio investments, as of November 30,
1997, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended,
the statement of changes in net assets for the year ended November 30,
1997 and for the period February 20, 1996 (commencement of operations)
to November 30, 1996 and the financial highlights of Class A, Class T,
Class B, Class C and Institutional Class for each of the periods
indicated therein. These financial statements and financial highlights
are the responsibility of the fund's management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial
highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 1997 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Fidelity Advisor Series I: Fidelity Advisor
Large Cap Fund as of November 30, 1997, the results of its operations
for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for the year
ended November 30, 1997 and for the period February 20, 1996
(commencement of operations) to November 30, 1996 and the financial
highlights of Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C and Institutional
Class for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
