IPMAT Indore is scheduled for 4th May, and students have around 10–12 days left for the exam. These last few days are extremely crucial for your preparation.

If you are already prepared, you need to utilise this time strategically. If you are not prepared yet, don’t stress, shift your focus towards JIPMAT as well.

Your first priority should be solving mocks. Try to attempt one mock every day, followed by rigorous analysis, so you can make last-minute improvements in your weak areas.

Apart from mocks and analysis, dedicate 4–5 hours daily to revision. At this stage, revision should include:

• Going through your notes and formulas
• Solving 2–3 questions from each concept
• Trying to solve most questions mentally to improve speed and processing

Avoid picking up any new major topics from scratch at this stage. However, if any small sub-topic is left, you can quickly cover it and move on.

While attempting mocks, focus on developing your own strategy:

• What to skip
• When to skip
• Which questions to attempt

Be aware of your strengths and weaknesses. Initially, skip questions from weaker areas, and revisit them later if time permits.

Do not waste too much time on doubtful questions, as you may not be able to attempt all questions. Be strategic and figure out what works best for you.

If you are not well-prepared for IPMAT Indore (syllabus incomplete or mock scores below cutoffs), don’t panic. These scores are also accepted by other IIMs at lower cutoffs. Start preparing for JIPMAT alongside.

There’s no rocket science, if you have prepared well, you will perform well. Stay strategic, patient, and structured.

All the best!
