Integrated Program in Management Aptitude Test (IPMAT) is probably one of the most competitive and feared entrance exams after class 12. But does that mean that IPMAT is the most difficult entrance exam that one may face after class 12? The answer is NO! It is rather a test of your speed and ability to pick and solve the right questions.
IPM Indore
Section | Total Question | Time Duration |
Quantitative Ability(MCQ) | 40 | 40 minutes |
Quantitative Ability(SA) | 20 | 40 minutes |
IPM Rohtak
Section | Total Question | Time Duration |
Quantitative Ability(MCQ) | 40 | 40 minutes |
In total there are 60 questions of 240 marks. Note: For the IPMAT Indore Quantitative ability section will be divided into two sub-sections.
However, this will not be the case with IPMAT Rohtak. There will be only one section for Quantitative aptitude in MCQ format.
The QA topics covered in IPMAT are as follows:
There are two ways to score well in Maths for IPMAT.
1. If you are strong in Quantitative Ability
2. If you are weak in Quantitative Ability.
If you are strong in Quantitative Ability-
Focus on maximizing your score in this section. That is you should be looking at a score of 140-145 in QA (SA+ MCQs). That is an attempt to 35-37 questions out of 60 questions of QA. Given that the sections in IPMAT are timed you will not even get to attempt more than this. Thus focus on accuracy.
If you are weak in Quantitative Ability-
Make Verbal Ability your best friend. Once you are sure you have attempted enough to clear the cut-off, you should be looking to maximize your score at least up to 120 marks from QA sections and then focus on solving the entire VA section to clear the overall cut-off, i.e., a score of 136-140 in VA.
Again, the sections in IPMAT are time-bound and only good planning and rigorous practice through good quality mock papers and previous year papers will help you iron-clad your strategy for clearing the IPMAT cut-off. With limited time in each section you cannot definitely solve all questions and therefore only focus on questions that are from topics that are your strengths. Time and again, Arithmetic and Algebra have been important topics for IPMAT and any other entrance exams. Thus, practice and master these topics as they hold a high weightage in IPMAT.
The level of difficulty of questions in this section is usually high. To ace the IPMAT exam and expert tips to boost the Maths for IPMAT preparation, Career launcher’s providing you Online Coaching Programs to help you crack the exam. Start preparing now!
