IPU CET BBA study plan
IPU CET BBA · Give each week a clear focus.
8 weeks · About 6 hours per week
Quantitative Aptitude / Numerical Ability & Reasoning and Logical Deduction
Diagnose baseline by taking one timed 30-question Quant set and one timed 30-question Reasoning set, then log every error by cause (concept gap, calculation slip, misread, time pressure).
Rebuild arithmetic fundamentals: percentages, ratio-proportion, averages, and profit-loss, solving 40 mixed problems with written steps.
Drill series completion and analogy-style reasoning for 45 minutes, writing the rule you used beside each answer.
Set up a single error log with columns for topic, cause, fix, and re-test date, and enter all Week 1 mistakes.
Your checkpoint
A one-page diagnostic sheet showing accuracy percentage per topic for Quant and Reasoning plus a ranked list of your five weakest topics.
Quantitative Aptitude / Numerical Ability & Reasoning and Logical Deduction
Master time-speed-distance and time-and-work by solving 30 problems and deriving each formula from first principles rather than memorising.
Practise syllogisms and blood-relations puzzles in 20 sets, drawing Venn or family-tree diagrams every time.
Introduce a 60-second-per-question timer for Quant and record how many you finish inside the limit.
Re-attempt all Week 1 error-log entries and mark which fixes held.
Your checkpoint
A timed 25-question Quant mini-test scored and reviewed, with a written note on which two question types cost you the most minutes.
Reasoning and Logical Deduction & Quantitative Aptitude / Numerical Ability
Work through seating arrangement and ranking puzzles in 15 sets, using a fixed notation system each time.
Cover mensuration and basic geometry formulas, solving 25 area, perimeter, and volume problems.
Build a one-page formula sheet in your own words for every Quant topic touched so far.
Cut average solving time on your weakest Reasoning type by 20 percent, measured against Week 1.
Your checkpoint
A completed formula sheet plus a table comparing Week 1 and Week 3 accuracy and average time per question on your two weakest topics.
Quantitative Aptitude / Numerical Ability & Reasoning and Logical Deduction
Complete 60 mixed Quant questions across all topics covered, with no topic skipped.
Complete 60 mixed Reasoning questions covering series, syllogisms, arrangements, and coding-decoding.
Simulate exam pressure with two 45-minute back-to-back sections and no pauses.
Audit the error log and retire every entry you have now solved twice correctly.
Your checkpoint
A full-length mock result for Quant and Reasoning with section scores, time split, and a list of the three topics to carry into the second half of the plan.
English Language and Comprehension & General Awareness / Business and Management Aptitude
Diagnose English by taking one timed 30-question set covering reading comprehension, grammar, vocabulary, and para-jumbles, then classify every error.
Read two 400-word business or economics articles and write a three-sentence summary of each to build comprehension speed.
Review core grammar rules (subject-verb agreement, tenses, prepositions, articles) and correct 40 error-spotting sentences.
Start a current-affairs log with 10 dated entries covering business, economy, and appointments.
Your checkpoint
An English diagnostic sheet with accuracy per question type plus the first 10 entries of a dated current-affairs log.
English Language and Comprehension & General Awareness / Business and Management Aptitude
Practise two-pass reading comprehension on 10 passages, reading the questions first and timing each passage at 6 minutes.
Build active vocabulary of 60 words in context, using each in an original sentence rather than a definition list.
Study foundational business and management concepts (forms of business organisation, functions of management, basic marketing and finance terms) and write a 10-line summary of each area.
Extend the current-affairs log to 30 entries and self-quiz on the first 15.
Your checkpoint
A 60-word vocabulary notebook with original sentences plus a two-page summary sheet of business and management fundamentals.
English Language and Comprehension & General Awareness / Business and Management Aptitude & Quantitative Aptitude / Numerical Ability
Complete 50 English questions mixing comprehension, grammar, and vocabulary under a 40-minute cap.
Complete 50 General Awareness and business-aptitude questions, reviewing every wrong answer against your log.
Run one maintenance set of 25 Quant questions to keep calculation speed from decaying.
Condense the current-affairs log into a 30-point revision sheet organised by theme.
Your checkpoint
A scored 50-question English and General Awareness set with a 30-point condensed revision sheet attached.
Quantitative Aptitude / Numerical Ability & Reasoning and Logical Deduction & English Language and Comprehension & General Awareness / Business and Management Aptitude
Take two full-length timed mocks under exam conditions and score all four sections separately.
Review every mock error and re-solve each one without looking at the solution first.
Rehearse a fixed time-allocation strategy per section and test it in the second mock.
Finalise a one-page exam-day sheet covering formulas, grammar traps, and key current-affairs facts.
Your checkpoint
Two full-length mock scores with a documented improvement between them and a completed one-page exam-day revision sheet.
Milestones
Week 2: You can solve a 25-question mixed Quant set within 30 minutes at 70 percent or better accuracy.
Week 4: Both Quant and Reasoning mock sections score at or above 60 percent, and your error log shows fewer calculation-slip errors than in Week 1.
Week 6: English accuracy reaches 65 percent or better, and your current-affairs log holds at least 30 dated entries.
Week 8: Your second full-length mock beats the first by at least 10 percentage points overall, with no section below 55 percent.
