ABOUT
IPMAT (Integrated Program in Management Aptitude Test) is the entrance exam for the 5 year Integrated Program in Management (IPM) offered by IIMs like IIM Indore and IIM Rohtak. JIPMAT (Joint Integrated Program in Management Admission Test) is conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA) for the IPM program of IIM Bodh Gaya and IIM Jammu. Both exams are for students who have passed or are appearing in Class 12.
In IPM, students complete BBA and MBA together in 5 years, directly at an IIM, without waiting for graduation and CAT. At Curious Mind, we prepare students for both exams together with Quantitative Ability, Verbal Ability and Logical Reasoning, along with daily practice, full length mocks, and personal mentoring. Students from Patna and Bihar can prepare along with their Class 12 boards.
