Cracking IPMAT 2025 in the first attempt is not just about hard work — it’s about smart work, consistency, and access to the right resources. With thousands of aspirants competing for limited seats in IIM Indore, IIM Rohtak, and others, a focused approach can make all the difference.
Here’s a step-by-step guide based on proven strategies used by SuperGrads toppers to clear IPMAT 2025 in their very first attempt.
Understand the IPMAT 2025 Exam Pattern
Before beginning your IPMAT 2025 preparation, understand the structure of the exam:
- Quantitative Ability (MCQ)
- Quantitative Ability (Short Answer)
- Verbal Ability (MCQ)
Each section is time-bound. There is negative marking in MCQs, but not in short-answer questions.
Knowing the paper pattern helps you strategize your attempts effectively.
- Build a Realistic Study Plan
Success starts with a solid plan. A structured preparation timeline is key. - Suggested Phase-Wise Plan:
Foundation Phase (2 months): Focus on concept clarity. - Practice Phase (3 months): Solve chapter-wise and section-wise questions.
- Mock Test Phase (Last 2 months): Take mocks regularly, analyze results, and revise.
- Plan your study hours daily — even 2-3 focused hours are enough if consistent.
- Focus on Conceptual Clarity
Strong fundamentals help you solve any question, even tricky ones. - For Quantitative Ability:
