IPU CET Preparation

How to Prepare?

  • Before starting your preparation, check the sectional weightage from each subject. The admission authority will publish the exam pattern along with the subject-wise weightage.
  • If you are applying for multiple sections, identify the additional section first. Suppose you are applying for a BBA, so you must prepare Business aptitude, GK, Reasoning and English. At the same time, if you are applying for B.com, in place of Business aptitude, you will have Quant as an additional subject. In this case, you must prepare quant and business aptitude with different approaches.
  • In this case, you will have to make your pattern. Identify your weak areas first. For quant, try to start with basic NCERT textbooks. Once you are done with the basics, move forward with the core subject books.
  • For GK, you will have to invest at least 40-50 minutes from your daily timetable. So, Morning would be a better choice for GK preparation.
  • Give as much mock as you can. Analyse your mistakes and try to make short notes on them.
