IPMAT Rohtak study plan

IPMAT Rohtak · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 7 hours per week

Week 1

Quantitative Ability

  • Diagnose baseline Quantitative Ability accuracy by completing 40 mixed arithmetic questions under a 45-minute timer and logging every error by cause (concept gap, calculation slip, misread).

  • Rebuild speed on percentages, ratios, and averages by solving 60 questions in three timed 20-question sets, targeting 80% accuracy per set.

  • Drill mental calculation daily for 15 minutes on fraction-to-percentage conversions, squares to 30, and multiplication of two-digit numbers.

  • Set up a single error log with columns for question type, time taken, root cause, and the corrective rule to apply next time.

Your checkpoint

A completed diagnostic report listing baseline accuracy per topic and a written list of the five error patterns to fix first.

Week 2

Quantitative Ability

  • Master time-speed-distance and work problems by solving 50 questions and writing a one-line formula card for each problem subtype.

  • Apply the unitary method and chain-rule shortcuts to 30 ratio-and-proportion questions, capping each at 90 seconds.

  • Convert word problems into equations within 30 seconds by practising 25 translation-only drills without solving them.

  • Review the week-1 error log and re-solve every missed question cold until each is correct without notes.

Your checkpoint

A one-page formula and shortcut sheet covering percentages, ratios, averages, time-speed-distance, and work, validated against 50 solved questions.

Week 3

Quantitative Ability & Logical Reasoning

  • Solve 60 number-system and algebra questions (HCF-LCM, remainders, linear and quadratic equations) with a 75% accuracy target.

  • Complete 40 logical reasoning questions on series, analogies, and coding-decoding under a 60-minute timer.

  • Identify the three reasoning question types where accuracy falls below 60% and write a step-by-step solving template for each.

  • Time-box every practice set so no single question consumes more than two minutes.

Your checkpoint

A timed mock section report for Quantitative Ability and Logical Reasoning showing accuracy, average time per question, and the three weakest subtypes.

Week 4

Quantitative Ability & Logical Reasoning

  • Solve 50 geometry and mensuration questions (triangles, circles, areas, volumes) and memorise the 15 formulas used most often.

  • Complete 40 seating-arrangement and puzzle-based reasoning sets, drawing a diagram for every set before answering.

  • Practise 30 data-interpretation sets combining tables and bar charts with calculation shortcuts.

  • Re-attempt all questions missed in weeks 1-3 and confirm each is now solved correctly in under two minutes.

Your checkpoint

A full-length 90-minute sectional test in Quantitative Ability plus Logical Reasoning, scored and analysed with a written list of remaining gaps.

Week 5

Verbal Ability & General Awareness

  • Build a 300-word vocabulary list from reading editorials, and use 100 of those words in original sentences.

  • Complete 40 reading-comprehension passages, practising the skim-question-read strategy and capping each passage at six minutes.

  • Solve 50 grammar and error-spotting questions covering subject-verb agreement, tenses, prepositions, and modifiers.

  • Compile a current-affairs digest covering the previous three months across polity, economy, science, and sports, with 10 bullet points per week.

Your checkpoint

A dated current-affairs digest of at least 120 bullet points plus a vocabulary log of 300 words with usage sentences.

Week 6

Verbal Ability & General Awareness

  • Complete 30 para-jumble and sentence-completion sets, writing the connector word that justifies each ordering decision.

  • Summarise 15 editorial articles in 60 words each to practise precise, concise written expression.

  • Revise the current-affairs digest and self-test on 100 static general-awareness facts (Indian constitution, geography, awards, organisations).

  • Review every verbal error from weeks 1-6 and classify each as vocabulary, grammar, or comprehension logic.

Your checkpoint

A scored 60-minute verbal plus general-awareness sectional test with an error classification table and a revised digest.

Week 7

Quantitative Ability & Logical Reasoning & Verbal Ability & General Awareness

  • Complete two full-length simulated tests under exam timing, replicating the section order and breaks.

  • Analyse each mock within 24 hours, tagging every error and recording the time lost per section.

  • Fix the three highest-frequency error tags by doing 20 targeted questions per tag.

  • Rehearse a question-selection strategy: decide within 20 seconds whether to solve, skip, or return to each question.

Your checkpoint

Two completed mock tests with written post-mortems listing error tags, time lost per section, and the specific fixes applied.

Week 8

Quantitative Ability & Logical Reasoning & Verbal Ability & General Awareness

  • Complete two final mocks in the first four days, then shift to light revision only.

  • Re-solve the 60 most-missed questions from the entire error log until each is correct without hints.

  • Recite formula sheets, the vocabulary log, and the current-affairs digest in three 45-minute revision passes.

  • Finalise exam-day logistics: section time allocation, attempt thresholds, and a skip rule for any question exceeding two minutes.

Your checkpoint

A one-page exam-day strategy card with per-section time budgets, target attempt counts, and personal skip rules.

Milestones

Week 2: Score at least 70% on a 30-question timed Quantitative Ability set and show that every week-1 error-log entry has been re-solved correctly.

Week 4: Score at least 65% on a 90-minute sectional test covering Quantitative Ability and Logical Reasoning, with average time per question under 100 seconds.

Week 6: Score at least 65% on a 60-minute verbal plus general-awareness sectional test and hold a current-affairs digest of at least 120 dated bullet points.

Week 8: Score at least 70% overall on the final full-length mock, with no section below 60% and all error-log entries closed.
