    Not at all. B.Com students have more comfort over the other stream students, who admitted in IIMs and other B-Schools.

    Hi Rishi,
    No, it wouldn't be difficult as such. The batch consists of variety of students with different backgrounds. If you are determined to work hard, you won't be facing any issues there.
    Hope that helps.
    All the best.

    IPMAT exam tests the candidates' logical reasoning abilities, analytical abilities, and Quantitative aptitude. Having a mathematics background can give an edge to the students who are appearing for the IPMAT exam. A good grasp of mathematics and business management can help the students score better in the IPM exam. Students should focus on covering the complete IPMAT syllabus and understanding the exam pattern. They must also work on their weaknesses while capitalizing on their strengths.

    One must know that IPMAT is an entrance exam conducted by the IIM for admission to its five-year Integrated programme in Management. While mathematics is a part of the IPMAT syllabus, it is not the only subject that is tested in the exam. The exam also tests the candidate's proficiency in logical reasoning, verbal ability, and Quantitative Aptitude. So, it is possible for a student without a strong background in mathematics to clear IPMAT. However, it is important to note that mathematics is a significant part of the exam and having a good grasp of the subject can improve the chances of scoring well in the exam. It is advisable for you

No, candidates do not have to pay any fee for IPMAT form correction. The facility is provided to candidates free of cost. However, if they have made an error in a field that is not available for editing, then, they will have to fill a fresh IPMAT form before submission deadline and pay the application fee again.

IPMAT Indore and IPMAT Rohtak have similar syllabus but they differ in terms of difficulty level. IPMAT Indore exam has 3 sections based on Verbal Skills and Quantitative Skills but the IPMAT Rohtak exam has an extra section on Logical Reasoning.

Level of difficulty of IPMAT Indore is slightly higher than IPMAT Rohtak as seen in the previous years. Also, IPMAT Indore scores are accepted by over 10 BSchools including IIM Sirmaur, IIM Shillong, IIM Ranchi, etc. but IPMAT Rohtak scores are accepted only by IIM Rohtak.

IPMAT exam can be a bit challenging for an average student. But with a good knowledge of the basics of IPMAT syllabus topics and exam pattern, students can fetch good IPMAT scores. 

Students should read daily and take sectional and full length mock test to ace IPM exam.

IPMAT is a speed based test with judges students on their quantitative and verbal skills. It checks the command of students over the English language and their comprehension skills. Questions in IPMAT exam are based on Class 9 and 12 syllabus but students need to practice a slightly advanced level questions to ace the exam. IPMAT requires focus and dedication. It is known to be a highly competitive exam but with practice and a good study plan they can get good scores.
