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: The amount of time required for preparation depends on several factors, such as the level of difficulty of the exam, the student's familiarity with the concepts, and the amount of time dedicated to studying.
As your daughter has two months for preparation, it is possible to prepare well for the exam with dedication and hard work. It would be beneficial for her to create a study plan and focus on important topics and concepts.
In addition, it is advisable to seek guidance from experienced teachers or take coaching from a reputed institute to increase her chances of success. However, self-study can also be effective if she has a good grasp of the concepts and is disciplined in her study habits.
Ultimately, the key to success is consistent effort and dedication towards preparation, regardless of the method chosen.

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.

Ans: Sumeet Sir, as Students should always have Plan B & Plan C, he can target both CLAT & IPMAT. However,

(a) he should allot more time to the one he is more interested in (law or management?).
(b) Preparing for both exams even from the 10th now will help him a lot to crack both exams with a decent score
(c) It is better to shortlist at least 5 law/management colleges he wishes to join, based on location preference, NIRF Ranking, specialization in both (civil, criminal, corporate, tax, cyber, intellectual property etc. and also in management: Finance, HR, Marketing, Operations, IT/Systems, etc.)
(d) He should join offline or online Coaching with any reputed Coaching Center. Choosing the right coaching center to prepare for both exams is important & also the Time Management for both.
(e) Make sure, he chooses the right stream (commerce or science) for his 11th/12th. Choosing the easier stream and the stream he is interested in will be better as he has to focus for CLAT & IPMAT also.
(f) It is also advisable to appear in 2-more Law & Management Entrance Exams as back-ups, instead of relying only on CLAT & IMPAT.
(g) Please check the syllabus of each Entrance Exam, download them, check the differences & he should focus more on weak subjects/topics among (examples of 2 exams):

IPMAT: Quantitative Ability, Logical Reasoning, and Verbal Ability.
CLAT: current affairs, logical reasoning, English language, legal reasoning, and quantitative techniques.

All the BEST for Your Son's Bright Future, Sir.
