Preparation strategy
How SoGo Sir asks students to go about it. Method, not motivation.
Know the arithmetic of the paper
Three sections of 40 questions, 120 minutes, 4 marks for a correct answer and minus 1 for a wrong one. That works out to one minute per question, and it means blind guessing costs you.
Your Class 10 and 12 marks are part of the score
Thirty per cent of the final merit score comes from your board marks. Doing well at school is preparation, not a distraction from it.
Build accuracy before speed
With negative marking, a student who attempts 70 questions accurately beats one who attempts 100 carelessly. Decide your attempt strategy in mocks, not in the hall.
Give Logical Reasoning its own daily slot
A full third of the paper is Logical Reasoning. It improves with pattern exposure, so a set a day beats a marathon once a week.
Prepare for the interview, which carries 15%
Be able to talk about why management, what you read, and what you do outside school. Vague answers are the common failure here.
Watch the official dates page
IIM Rohtak marks its dates tentative and publishes them on its own important-dates page. Check it rather than relying on any coaching site, ours included.

Common questions
IPMAT refers to the aptitude tests used for admission to five-year Integrated Programme in Management (IPM) courses, which students join after Class 12. IIM Indore and IIM Rohtak each conduct their own test, and the National Testing Agency conducts JIPMAT for IIM Bodh Gaya and IIM Jammu.
Eligibility is set by each institute and is based on Class 10 and Class 12 marks, with a maximum age limit. The exact percentages and age cut-offs can change from year to year, so always confirm them on the official website for the year you are applying in. The official link is given at the bottom of each exam page.
Most students start in Class 11 or at the beginning of Class 12, so that school studies and test preparation run side by side. Quantitative ability and verbal ability both reward regular daily practice rather than last-minute study.
Our IPMAT mentorship plans are being finalised. Please send an enquiry and we will share the current batch details, schedule and fee with you directly.
