IPMAT Indore study plan

IPMAT Indore · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 6 hours per week

Week 1

Mathematics Proficiency & Logical Reasoning

  • Diagnose baseline accuracy in Mathematics Proficiency by solving 40 mixed questions (arithmetic, algebra, geometry, modern maths) under timed conditions and log topic-wise accuracy

  • Build a formula and shortcut sheet covering percentages, ratio-proportion, averages, and profit-loss, then apply each formula to at least 10 questions

  • Drill 30 logical reasoning puzzles on seating arrangement and blood relations, writing the arrangement or family tree for every question before choosing an answer

  • Establish a 6-hour weekly timetable split across weekday micro-sessions and one weekend block, and track it in a single log

Your checkpoint

A one-page diagnostic report listing accuracy percentage and top 5 weak topics across Mathematics and Logical Reasoning

Week 2

Mathematics Proficiency & Logical Reasoning

  • Solve 60 arithmetic questions (time-speed-distance, work, mixtures, simple and compound interest) with a target of 70% accuracy

  • Practice 25 data-interpretation sets (tables, bar graphs, pie charts) and record time per set to build speed

  • Complete 30 logical reasoning questions on syllogisms and direction sense, drawing Venn diagrams and direction maps for each

  • Review every incorrect question from Weeks 1-2 and rewrite the correct approach in your own words

Your checkpoint

An error log of at least 40 reviewed questions with corrected solution steps for each

Week 3

Mathematics Proficiency & Aptitude

  • Master algebra and number system concepts by solving 50 questions on linear and quadratic equations, progressions, and divisibility

  • Solve 40 quantitative aptitude questions on ratio, partnership, and ages under a 90-second-per-question cap

  • Learn 10 calculation shortcuts (squares up to 40, cubes up to 15, fraction-to-percentage conversions) and test them in a timed drill

  • Identify the 5 most frequent question types in IPMAT-style quantitative sections and rank them by expected marks per minute

Your checkpoint

A timed 30-question quantitative mock scored and analysed with per-topic accuracy and average time per question

Week 4

Aptitude & Logical Reasoning

  • Complete 40 geometry and mensuration questions (triangles, circles, coordinate geometry) and memorise the associated theorems and formulas

  • Solve 30 logical reasoning questions on coding-decoding, series, and analogies with a 60-second-per-question limit

  • Attempt 25 quantitative comparison and approximation questions to build judgement-based answering skills

  • Consolidate all error logs so far into a single revision document organised by topic

Your checkpoint

A full-length timed sectional test on Aptitude and Logical Reasoning, scored with a written analysis of time sinks

Week 5

English Proficiency & Aptitude

  • Read 6 editorial-style passages and answer 30 inference, tone, and main-idea questions, justifying each answer with a line reference

  • Revise grammar rules for subject-verb agreement, tenses, modifiers, and parallelism, then apply them to 40 error-spotting and sentence-correction questions

  • Build a vocabulary log of 60 words drawn from reading passages, including usage sentences you write yourself

  • Practice 20 para-jumble and summary questions using a structure-first approach (opening line, connectors, conclusion)

Your checkpoint

A reading comprehension and verbal ability sectional test with accuracy above 65% and a vocabulary log of 60 entries

Week 6

English Proficiency & Logical Reasoning

  • Complete 50 verbal ability questions covering fill-in-the-blanks, idioms, and word usage under timed conditions

  • Solve 30 critical reasoning questions (assumption, strengthen, weaken, conclusion) by identifying the premise and conclusion in each argument

  • Write 4 short paraphrases of 100 words each to sharpen precision and concision in expression

  • Analyse the verbal error log and eliminate the 3 most repeated mistake patterns

Your checkpoint

A verbal and critical reasoning sectional test with a corrected error log and 4 written paraphrases

Week 7

Mathematics Proficiency & English Proficiency & Aptitude & Logical Reasoning

  • Take 2 full-length timed mocks covering all four domains and record section-wise scores and time allocation

  • Review each mock for at least 90 minutes, classifying every error as conceptual, careless, or time-pressure

  • Refine a section-order and question-selection strategy that maximises attempted questions within the time limit

  • Re-solve the 30 hardest questions from your error log without notes to confirm retention

Your checkpoint

Two completed full-length mocks with a comparative score sheet and a revised test-day strategy note

Week 8

Aptitude & Logical Reasoning & English Proficiency & Mathematics Proficiency

  • Take 3 full-length mocks under strict exam conditions and target a steady improvement in each attempt

  • Revise the formula sheet, vocabulary log, and error log in three dedicated sessions

  • Practice 40 rapid-fire questions across all domains to rebuild speed and confidence

  • Finalise exam-day logistics: section order, time checkpoints, and a skip rule for questions exceeding the time cap

Your checkpoint

A final mock score report showing improvement over Week 7 and a one-page exam-day checklist

Milestones

Week 2: Complete the diagnostic plus two weeks of drills with a documented error log of 40+ questions and arithmetic accuracy at or above 70%

Week 4: Score the first full-length sectional test on Aptitude and Logical Reasoning and confirm all error logs are consolidated into a single revision document

Week 6: Achieve 65%+ accuracy on the verbal sectional test and demonstrate elimination of the top 3 repeated verbal error patterns

Week 8: Complete 5 total full-length mocks with a rising score trend and a finished exam-day checklist
