Hi Manan,

The level for CAT and IPMAT are not of same level but according to class 12th student its moderate

For selection in IPM, first a student needs to meet the minimum criteria which is:

60% in 10th and 12th

OR

1475 in SAT 1

Please note that this is OR

If you do meet the minimum criteria, then your final selection would depend upon two criteria:

a) Aptitude Test (AT)

b) Personal Interview (PI)

There are 121 seats in IPM for which 1210 candidates will be shortlisted based on the Aptitude Test. The final 121 candidates will be selected on the basis of a combined score in AT & PI with the weight-ages of 60% and 40% respectively. So, essentially - Aptitude Test is really important not just for getting shortlisted but also final conversion.

PMAT and CAT are two completely different examinations. IPMAT is for undergraduates who wish to study at IIM Indore to pursue integrated management program after class XII while CAT is a post-graduate level MBA exam after graduation. So, both the exams have a completely different level of competency.

Hope this helps.Good Luck
