Why is there an integrated course of BBA MBA in IIM Indore only?
At present, IIM Indore is not the only IIM that offers BBA + MBA courses. IIM Indore and IIM Rohtak have been offering the five-year integrated course in MBA for undergraduate students for a few years now.
In 2021, IIM Ranchi, IIM Jammu, and IIM Bodh Gaya also introduced IPM degree courses for students after Class 12.
The Five Year Integrated Programme in Management (IPM), is a unique program that aims to meet the aspirations of young students to become management professionals. Admission to this program is done through the JIPMAT entrance exam followed by Written Ability Test (WAT) and Personal Interview (PI).
Some more benefits of the course include:
- You can save time and money by combining both undergraduate and postgraduate courses.
- The program builds commercial and management skills for a successful management career.
- You will learn marketing, finance, operations, strategy, and entrepreneurship.
- The competitive program requires a written test, personal interview, and academic record.
- Employers value the program,and alumni work for top Indian and international firms.
How can I prepare for IIM Indore or IIM Rohtak IPM exams? I am currently in class 11 with commerce stream and ISC board (and not showing off I got 93 avg. in English class 10 ICSE board)?
It is great that you are thinking of pursuing IPM being in class 11. You have enough time. You can think of starting with Pearson’s IPM entrance guide. Figure out if you can solve the questions or not. If required, join online coaching classes like CareerAnna.
- Develop the habit of reading. Start with novels that you might like in your preferred genre and move on to articles from the Indian Express or The Hindu.
- Expand your knowledge and vocabulary.
- Attempt one mock at least per month and one every week after your 12th grade. Analyze your mistakes and work on them.
- Practice writing essays for WAT. You might be asked to write on random topics so ensure that you can write creatively within 20 minutes.
- You can look at the previous topics asked in the examination which might help you.
- In the interview round, prepare for current affairs and things you did in your 12th grade. GK and current affairs are essential for your preparation.
- You can revise your academics, general HR questions and talk about your hobbies a week or two before your interview.
- Ensure that your hobby stands out. Be thorough about it.
- You need to set yourself apart from others for the college to see what is the unique thing that you can bring to the table.
Finally, be consistent in your work and start building your resume right away. Back your hobby with certificates, participate in competitions, and any other significant achievements you may have made along the way. Volunteer at a local NGO since social work is highly appreciated on your CV.
Which one is better after 12th commerce, doing IPM IIM Indore or doing Chartered Accountant?
Chartered Accountants and IPM from IIM Indore are not comparable because of their vastly different natures. You are advised to move toward the area of interest over here. IPM aims to develop each student holistically by helping him learn and excel in a variety of areas. Your presentation abilities improve, and your overall development is boosted. It has several different domains as its primary focus.
A CA, on the other hand, is deeply involved in the accounting industry. To be clear, it's a correspondence course. After studying, you take your exams, then write your articles. Your course of action in this will determine only your personality development and presentation skills.
You should choose between these two based on your area of interest.
How much should I score in IPM to ensure my admission to IIM Indore? Can any selected student of IPM share his/her aptitude test score?
The choice of questions attempted is critical in IPMAT, and students should aim for an overall attempt of 60-70% with 80% accuracy to secure a good score.
- For the Quantitative Ability (QA) MCQ section, I recommend attempting 60% of the questions with 70-80% accuracy, while for the QA Short Answer (SA) section, attempting 60% of the questions with 9-10 correct answers can lead to a good score.
- For the Verbal Ability (VA) section, attempting around 35-38 questions with 85% accuracy can lead to a good score. Students should analyze their strengths and weaknesses and attempt questions accordingly.
There is no fixed score for admission to IIM Indore through IPMAT, but attempting a good number of questions with high accuracy can help students secure a good score.
Is it better to go for DU BMS instead of IPM of IIM Indore
Since you’ve not given any context to the question, the answer in any normal circumstance would be yes. Let’s understand why spending more than 5 lacs on an IPM degree is not worth your time and effort.
- Fee: BMS DU charges around 50,000 for the entire course where IPM fee is unnecessarily high just because of the IIM tag. I am not saying that there will not be any difference between the curriculum but the difference is not worth the money you’re paying.
- Syllabus: Although IIMs are known for their pedagogy and surely you’ll get professors who will change the way you see a subject. This kind of exposure at such an early stage of your life will widen the possibilities but if we talk about the syllabus of a BBA degree and that of a BMS degree, the difference is pretty evident.
BMS is a slightly analytical degree that would give you an edge over students pursuing BBA or BCOM. I have seen BMS students acing CAT after basic preparation cause of their good grasp on logical reasoning. It’s a given fact that an average BMS students is more likely to score well in CAT than an average BBA/BCOM student.
What is the scope of integrated (BBA+MBA) from Kashmir University? Should I go for it?
I have a few friends from the University of Kashmir. According to their experience, it is not a good option for pursuing an integrated BBA-MBA course. After completing the degree, you will want good placement opportunities. However, the University of Kashmir does not offer any placement opportunities. You will end up searching for bank jobs.
Also, BBA-MBA programs need a lot of exposure. You will get little to no exposure at Kashmir University. So, if you are really interested in doing a BBA-MBA program, it’s best to look for better alternatives with decent placement and exposure.

Which is the best coaching for IPM IIM Indore in Lucknow City?
Only someone from an IIM can provide you with better insight, and Educate Next's founders are from IIM Rohtak and FMS Delhi. Educate Next is, in my opinion, the best IPM - IIM coaching (Indore and Rohtak). The curriculum is written by the Directors themselves, and they provide full curriculum details to students when they enroll, making it clear how the approach will be. The best Personality Development and Verbal Ability classes in town.
Another critical point is that the batch size is too small, with a maximum of 20 students. This is extremely beneficial. It is also the most affordable in terms of fees for the quality provided. IMS is also good, but they charge nearly triple the price for the same quality.
