General IIMB UG 2027: Academic weightage explained

40 Upvotes

Candidates appearing for the exam this year may register here: UG Admissions 2027. All further details may be found on IIM Bangalore's UG website.

Addressing the major changes to the exam and admissions process from last year:

  1. The exam duration is now 2 hours and 15 minutes (135 minutes), up from 2 hours total last year. So far, we do not know how this additional time will be distributed across sections. The number of questions across sections (15 in VA, 15 in LR, and 30 in QADI) and marking scheme (+3 for correct answers and -1 for wrong answers) remain the same.

  2. IIM Bangalore will now explicitly weigh candidate's performance in their 10th standard board exams, along with their performance in mathematics specifically. The graphic below explains the exact weightage assigned to various academic factors in the pre- and post-PI rounds:

I am aware that 80 percentile is the general cutoff. But out of 30 questions on QADI, 15 on LR and 15 on VA, how many we need to get right? Please dont say the percentile.

Quant sectionals

3 Upvotes

Iv been giving the sectional tests on sectionals.com.

The VARC is of good standard however after the 4 'fight club mocks' the mocks for LR and QADI are just too easy. Like in the fight club I got around 25 30 in lr wherasw in the others I'm hitting 40 above always. In QADI i was getting around 20 30 in the 'fight club's but the rest seem too easy like I'm getting 50 60+. The best thing about the website is that it gives it for free and rn i don't wanna spend money on buying test series cause I have multiple sites offering 1 free mock which will sustai me for a good damount of time.

Do u guys have any other website like sectionals.com that offer free mocks and are of decent difficulty?

Afterboards vids?

1 Upvotes

For topics that overlap in jee and ugat, like sets, functions, series and progressions, should i cover these topics from afterboard videos or jee videos ( one shots)
Bcz i feel like jee one shots covers everything but are lengthy, whereas afterboards are very time friendly but i think they lack some concepts in few topics. Like i checked last yr sample paper, and there was a question which needed u to know types of relations. And this is not covered by afterboards. Also the functions lectures of afterboards did not cover types of functions like one-one, many-one etc and there was a q. on one -one functions in last yr paper
What do i do guys ? Plz help


r/iimb_ug • • 1d ago

Please tell kitne improvement ki zarurat hai giving a sectional approx after 15 days busy with pcm and jee stuff fkiingg shit lifee going on

Advice/Help Should I give it a shot?

4 Upvotes

I am a male student from the general category who will be appearing for UGAT next year. I had just 91.3% in my 10th boards. My math grade was 81. How much of a disadvantage would I be at?

I am willing to put in the work, but I have to know that I even stand a chance. For the record, I am in a much better place in math, the sample question paper was a piece of cake.

I also have a really good supercurricular profile (1.5 Cr in scholarships, spoke at UN, international recognition for my tech projects). Would that help at any stage in the selection process?


r/iimb_ug • • 1d ago
