Hi Vinal,

Thanks for A2A

In order to join IPM you need to give IPMAT. It is more or less similar to CAT and the preparation can be done in a similar manner. T

he first three years the student does the B.A.(Foundations in MAnagement) while the next two years they get merged with the 2 year MBA program to complete their 5 year degree. There is lot of preperation material online which you can refer to.

All the best

hi,

Start the preparation 6-9 months before the exam & no specific books are referred to as the exam tests overall understanding in some areas, so one specific book may not suffice. Revise properly after your 12th board exams.

I would like to suggest this book Books: crack IPM prearson publication, duenorth academics .

Self-study might not help some students. As there is not much time between boards and IPMAT, so expert guidance will help them prepare in the required manner. You can take up online coaching to save time and money and study as per your convenience

You should go through the entire syllabus of IPMAT two months before the boards to concentrate completely on your 12th exams for these two months.

Once you are done with 12th boards, start to prepare intensely for IPMAT.

The key to crack this exam is to be fairly good at Maths and English. If you had Maths in your 12th, you can prepare for this exam easily. Your concepts should be clear. You should also focus on English as it is very important to have a strong base in English grammar. Improbable vocabulary is going to benefit you.

Since you have gone through the syllabus once, you just have to revise. For revision take Online tests to save time and brush up your concepts. Do a proper analysis of the mock tests you have taken to work on your weak areas. Take timed tests to recreate the exam environment.

In the first  2/3RD of the time left for ipmat preparation

.Set weekly/ daily targets

.Try to complete your topic wise learning before mock test

In the later 1/3rd of time left for impat preparation

.Take mock test ( start slow and than ramp up)- anlayze them-
