What is IPMAT?

IPMAT is conducted by IIM Indore for its five-year Integrated Programme in Management (IPM), which combines a BBA with an MBA and IIM-level placements. Several other IIMs and institutes also use IPMAT Indore scores.

Shortlisted candidates take a Personal Interview, and final selection combines IPMAT score, interview and (in some years) a written ability test.
