Preparation Plan For IPMAT From Class 11

To start preparing for IPMAT IIM-Indore, aspirants should first understand that IPMAT is the aptitude test that students must appear for in order to get admission to the IPM (Integrated Program in Management) course. 

Aspirants must first understand that IPMAT is formulated not only to test their level of proficiency but also to evaluate their abilities in analytical, logical, and time management. 

The IPMAT consists of sections which are: 

1. Quantitative Ability (Short answer type)
2. Quantitative Ability (MCQ type)
3. Verbal Ability

There’s a sectional limit for each section and candidates have to qualify for each sectional cut-off to make it to the next round which is the personal interview. This means that well-planned preparation becomes even more important if you’re aiming to crack the exam. Mentioned below are some of the important points on why you should start your preparation early:

> Aspirants who begin their preparation early have more days or sometimes just a couple of hours to finish a topic, but since you have enough time you can finish each topic with an adequate amount of practice.

> The most important thing is to have an in-depth understanding of the IPMAT syllabus, pattern, and list of key topics before you commence the IPMAT preparation. 

> After you have completely familiarized yourself with the syllabus you can follow a proper strategy for your IPMAT preparation.

> Distribute time for each section and make some changes based on the difficulty level of the section. Devote at least 2 to 3 hours a day.
