Hi, I want to excel in the IPMAT, but I haven’t started preparing yet as I’m in 12th grade and focusing on my board exams.

Ans: Microsoft & IBM AI ARE BETTER.
FOR IPMAT, SPEED IS KEY, PRACTICE TEST SERIES WITHIN TIME LIMIT

Hello Mayank. My daughter just finished with her Class 12 Board exams, Commerce stream. She plans to appear for IP MAT entrance exam. The exam is on 16.6.2023. Can you guide us with a proper preparation strategy to prepare for the entrance in approx. 2.5 months. Should she join some some crash coaching or the exam can be prepared by self study only also.Thanks.

Ans: For her to score well, she needs to understand the paper pattern, the syllabus that is being covered and she must try and attempt a few papers as mock tests. This will give her clarity on where she needs to focus more of her energy on to improve her mock test results. While there is some time for her to prepare & if she is diligent with her studies and solely focuses on them over the net 2.5 months, she should be study on her own - there are multiple resources available on the internet to prepare as well which she can refer to. A crash course at a coaching center will also be helpful as they will have the formats and the curriculum plans in place for her to study at. It depends on what she is more comfortable doing.

Which is the best online coaching for IPMAT? Enquiring for my son who is planning to appear in 2026. How should he prepare for the test? His 11th standard subjects are Accountancy, business administration, economics, applied maths and Financial Marketing Management.

Ans: Preparation for IPMAT is similar to preparing for Management entrance test. Most classes that conduct classes for MBA entrance also conduct classes for IPMAT including mine.
He can start with writing the mock. A free mock is available on my website Patrick100 which he can write. That will give him fair idea about the exam. Post that he can plan for his preparation.

Question by Akshat - Sep 07, 2025Hindi

Career

I had prepared for IPMAT after school but could not break through. However I am currently doing BCom from NMIMS Mumbai (2nd Year). I am realistically targetting CAT 2027. I will also give an attempt in 2026. So I have 1+1 year of preparation. I have some queries. 1. Shall I join some Coaching at this stage or do self study. 2. Is IPMAT preparation material is a good building block for CAT exams. 3. What is the ratio between Freshers and Work Experience candidates in the past few years.

Ans: Can focus in CAT26 and try to crack it. Coaching helps as if provides the right direction in which to prepare and if the faculty is good then some good methods to solve. If you have people to help with guidance then can decide on coaching. May require different material for CAT, though can start with IPMAT. There are enough freshers in the top colleges.

Career

Good afternoon sir, I am a male general candidate and have secured a rank of 40,117 OS (97.46%ile). I am genuinely very confused and scared because I can't get (for BTech) CSE core, CSE specialisation or ECE at any good and reputable colleges (as far as I have researched). What good colleges do I have for the above mentioned branches?

Ans: Try CSE / CSE Specialization / ECE with newer IIITs and lower/mid NIT circuit branches. For example, IIIT Kottayam / Dharwad / Kalyani / Bhagalpur / Ranchi / Agartala / Dharwad for CSE/IT-related branches with homestate and female quota.

Good luck.

Hey , got 88.15 percentile , 183797 rank , delhi home state , gen category Any chnaces of igdtuw ( any branch)

Ans: Yes, if you are a female candidate, IGDTUW has a good chance for “any branch” under the Delhi general quota. JAC Delhi 2025 Round-1 Delhi General closing ranks were around CSE 43,914, IT 55,952, ECE 69,167, MAE 80,688, and DMAM 82,511, so at CRL 1,83,797, top branches are difficult in normal rounds. But official JAC Delhi publishes round-wise cutoffs, and later/spot rounds can go lower depending on vacancies. For JoSAA NIT/IIIT/GFTI CSE/ECE/Electrical, chances are very low at this CRL for the general category. Strategy: fill IGDTUW all branches, DTU/NSUT lower branches if allowed, JAC spot round, IPU counselling, IIITD unlikely, and backups like MAIT, MSIT, BPIT, USAR, JIIT, AKTU and reputed private colleges. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!

Myself Santosh from UP EWS CATEGORY i have obtain 87.63 percentile and CRL 192600 in Jee mains session 2 i would like to know that whether i could get admission in ECE, ELECTRICAL or CSE branch in any NIT or IIIT of our country

Ans: Santosh, with your score, your chances for CSE, ECE, or Electrical in NITs and IIITs are very low. More realistic options are lower branches like Civil, Mechanical, or Metallurgy in newer or lower?ranked NITs and GFTIs through JoSAA/CSAB. You may also get non?core branches in some IIITs in later rounds. Fill all choices, including lower NITs and GFTIs, and focus strongly on CSAB special rounds. Also keep backup options through your state counselling (UP), AKTU?affiliated colleges, and good private engineering colleges. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!
