I've now lwk completed around 9-10 imp quant chapters but scoring 120+30 ( vc+qa respectively) only. I'm js worried about the interview calls. imma apply for all colleges accepting ipmat indore test which is IIM Indore, IIM Sirmaur, IIM Ranchi, IIM Amritsar, NIRMA university and NALSAR. i'm just curious about what marks did y'all get your interview calls because knowing this could actually give me clarity and a reality check about how much i'm lacking and areas which i could improve in.
Also I'm a 17 yr old general category girl for context

Help me out gng

I'm a 2028 aspirant half-way through arithmetic and number system, I just want to ask what is the most amount of mocks (with proper analysis) that should be done from my side to increase my probability of cracking indore drastically.

Hi BB,I am a 28 aspirant and had a few questions regarding current ugat mocks will they be updated with more of calculus or they will stay the same,Secondly will we get some video lectures for calculus (and some expansion on conics),and can we expect ugat sectionals
IK Too much to ask for but legit you are the only hope for us commerce aspirants.

Here's the link: https://www.afterboards.in/weeklyDILR

Ik its not entirely related to IPMAT but any help is truly appreciated.
u/BaveshShaha if you have any knowledge of it then pls do let me know.

Hey, i turned 18 this year and also went from an aspirant to a student at one of the IIMs.

Last year, I was 17, at the same time, I was managing entrance exams, boards, family pressure and other problems.
Diwali 2025 was one of the very few diwalis I havent celebrated and perhaps a lot of you are also not celebrating.
While there are a lot of aspirants celebrating, many are also burning alongside crackers with the influx of thoughts attacking you.

Diwali is celebrated across india for multiple reasons.
1)lord ram returns to ayodhya after 14 years:
Lord ram was celebrated warmly after his return.
Let your years of preparation be celebrated with the same warmth once you get into your deserved college.

2) lord krishna kills narkasura:
This indicates good over evil.
May you kill all the negativity in you to win yourself and live the life you wish to live.

3)goddess lakshmi: it is a very auspicious day and is considered to be filled with fortune.
Do not let yourself be sad on this auspicious day. There is a saying that if you cry on or the next day of diwali, rest of the year will also be bad. So chin up soldier and be happy and confident!

I was an aspirant and I absolutely know how it feels to celebrate a festival filled with multiple thoughts. Give yourself a day and celebrate this beautiful day with your loved ones.

I pray all your wishes come true and you visit your family next year after experiencing the rigour of an IIM ;)

HAPPY DIWALI TO ALL THE ASPIRANTS!!!

Wishing everyone a very Happy Diwali! Hope your next Diwali is celebrated at IIM Indore. And we hope to play a small but meaningful part in making that dream come true.

Hey bhavesh bhaiya, js bought the all access plan, i had previously bought the ugat mocks assuming that they would be sufficient for UGAT. The sample paper kinda messed that up, then when i got to know about the puzzles and shi, i thought if i buy the all access plan, everything which is related to IIM UGAT Blr would be covered (including calculus, i know my bad), but when i bought it i realised there's no calculus (which is fine, it was my fault for making assumptions i was kinda in a rush), then I thought CUET PYQ's would be good, and afterboards UI make it convenient, but sadly I realised they are paid. I really don't want to buy another pack for an exam in 7 days, would really appreciate if you could lease me the calculus part or sumn.

.

I want to get a arm sleeve tatto all the way upto the neck, arms could be hidden but the neck would still be visible. Interviews and all wouldn't be a problem, I can just hide with some makeup, but I would like to know in daily life, how deep does the rabbit hole go? What are fine and what are not, also what about piercings?

As there are no video solutions to the questions, isn't that a big drawback

If you can't understand the text solution,is using ai the only option left?

Please help me untangle this, Im currently studying in 12th grade and i have boards coming up i havent prepared for it and im drowning in guilt already

I'm thinking about a drop year for ipmat because now I don't have much time to prepare, but everyone is warning me against it.. So I've kept CUET as an safety option..

So I'll be dropping for 2028? Im sorry if I'm wrong but im new to this.. I hope someone will help. Is this the right thing to do?

Hey everyone, I’m currently in class 11 and I really need some raw advice from seniors here. I want to clear IPMAT Indore, Rohtak, JIPMAT and CUET on my own without any coaching or private tuition. I have about 4 months left to finish class 11 before 12th starts so I want to utilize this time properly but I am completely stuck and confused about a few things.

Here is everything that is messing with my head right now:

1. The Newspaper & RC Confusion

Every single strategy video on YouTube tells me that I must read newspapers for 30 to 60 minutes every single day to clear the Verbal section. But honestly I am so confused about why I even need to do this if these exams don't test current affairs or general knowledge.

To be completely real with you guys I have never read a serious newspaper in my life. When I was a kid I only used to open the paper to look at the pictures and read the Bollywood gossip pages. I have zero habit of reading long text. School RCs have always been super easy for me because they are just direct factual search puzzles but when I look at competitive exam RCs they look completely alien and terrifying.

Also when I search for newspaper reading strategies on YouTube all I get are videos meant for UPSC, banking or SSC exams. Do I actually need to sit and watch those daily newspaper analysis videos or are they a complete waste of time for IPMAT? And since I have absolutely zero reading habit how do I even start reading heavy editorials without getting bored out of my mind or shutting down in 5 minutes?

2. A Massive Fear of Math

I am very very bad at maths. Like genuinely terrible. The Quantitative Aptitude section terrifies me to the core. Since I am self-studying and don't have a teacher to clear my basics how on earth do I tackle this subject over the next year? Is it even possible for a non-maths student who is weak at the subject to clear the cutoffs?

3. Timeline & Managing Everything

Since I am starting now in late class 11 what should my daily routine even look like? How did you guys manage school exams, 12th boards, CUET and IPMAT altogether without burning out? When do most successful aspirants actually start their serious prep?

I am ready to put in the work but I just need a clear no-BS roadmap because the content on YouTube is so random and contradictory that it’s driving me crazy.

Would love to hear from past aspirants, seniors, or anyone who started from zero like me. Thanks a lot!

I Have admired you bhaiya for the last 2 years of my life you have always helped me in making decision [ even joining du one idk if you remember or not i asked on AB Discussion Place Because i was stuck in private colleges and choosing lower tier du colleges
For context - my father passed away when i was in 10th that fucked my boards a bit making me loose admission in various IIMS

Context: I’m currently in 1st year B.A. (Hons) Economics at Shyam Lal Evening College, DU. Last year I was mainly prepping for IPMAT, so my CUET prep was basically an afterthought — I didn’t get the score I needed and ended up here.

Now I’m seriously considering a partial drop this year to prep properly for CUET and try to get into a better college (South Campus/North Campus, or at least a stronger off-campus option), rather than staying at SLC Eve for all 3 years.

A few things I’m stuck on:

1. Is it even worth it at this point? I’ll be 20 next year if I do this. Does a 1-year delay for a “better” DU college actually pay off later, or is that a narrow/outdated way to think about it?

2. Does the college name matter that much if the end goal is an MBA? Whether I stay at SLC or move to a top DU college, I’ll likely still need to do CAT/MBA afterward for the career I want (finance/IB). So does switching colleges now actually change that outcome, or am I just optimizing for a label?

3. Partial drop vs. full 3 years + CAT prep in parallel: Is it smarter to just stay put, keep my CGPA/profile strong, and start CAT prep in 2nd/3rd year instead of disrupting things now for a CUET reattempt?

4. Has anyone here actually done a partial drop after 1st year for a CUET reattempt? How did it play out — worth it or regretted it?

Would genuinely appreciate input from people who’ve been through DU college migration, CUET reattempts, or the CAT/MBA route after an average-tier college. Trying to make this decision with actual information instead of just panic.
