BBA and IPM entrance exams

The exams worth knowing about if you want a management degree straight after Class 12.

Two different routes

An integrated programme (IPM) takes five years and gives you an undergraduate degree and an MBA together, at an IIM. A BBA is a three-year undergraduate degree, after which you would sit CAT or another test for an MBA later.

Most students we teach apply to more than one, because the preparation overlaps almost completely: quantitative ability, verbal ability and reasoning.
