IPMAT 2024 Preparation Strategy
Here are some tips for preparing for the IPMAT 2024 exam:
-
Familiarise yourself with the exam pattern and marking scheme, as negative marking is applicable. Answer questions accordingly.
-
Set a target score based on the cutoff. Determine whether you are aiming to just meet the qualifying marks or achieve a very high score. This will help you prepare and plan effectively.
-
Manage your time wisely. Instead of treating the exam as a single 120-minute session, consider each section as a separate exam. This approach can help you manage your time better.
-
Avoid guessing on questions if you have no idea about the answer. There’s no point in risking negative marks.
-
Start with the questions that you find the easiest and are less time-consuming, and then tackle the harder ones.

Solve as many mock tests and previous year papers as possible to improve on your weak areas.
