Can I prepare for IIM Indore IPM in 10 months?

JA
Jiya Agarwal Posted On : September 3rd, 2021
MBA in Marketing & Human Resource Management, T. A. Pai Management Institute (2019)

Yes, the IPM IIM Indore entrance exam can be prepared in 10 months. Some of my friends who joined IIM Indore and opted for IPM prepared for the exam in only 9-10 months.

Although, your level of participation could not be measured in months, but can be determined by the number of hours you put in each day. Many students used to enroll in the course for the year and then choose to drop out. But on the other hand students who are from crash courses are seen to reach their goal.

All in all, concentrate on your studies. Make a proper strategy by selecting the topics which are your strengths and weaknesses and solve them accordingly. Learn time management as this will be very beneficial. Finally, you can also look for a mentor to guide you through the process.

What should I do if I am in the last month of the CAT exam and still not scoring even 50 marks and want to get IIM Ahmedabad?

BG

M.B.A. from Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad

Never treat your mock marks too seriously. Mock scores fluctuate for many applicants. The key is to not worry in the weeks before the test. Take as many mocks as you can in the remaining time to improve your plan, but don't overdo it. 

During tests, you should focus on answering the easy questions and skipping the hard ones. Analyze your strengths and weaknesses and work on a plan that will help you get the best score possible. Be clear with your strategy as you can not do much in the last weeks other than make a strategy to solve the paper in the correct manner.

Also, don't try to learn too much in the days before the test. Review the basics, look over your previous practice tests, learn from your mistakes, and take a break before the exam. You can get into the best colleges and even IIMA.

I am a B.E. first year student at UIT RGPV, Bhopal, India with branch in ECE. I want to do my MS from the USA. How should I prepare?

SK
Shubham Kumar Posted On : August 28th, 2021
Studied B.E. Mechanical Engineering at UIT RGPV Bhopal (2019)

To get admission to an MS degree from any US university there are 3 different important factors - GPA; GRE and TOEFL scores and SOP supported by LOR’s. 

  1. The first factor has to be maintained at your previous academic place. You must score above the minimum grade to be eligible to sit in the entrance exam. Focus on the coursework and score as high as possible. 
  2. In the junior year of your academic degree, start preparing for the GRE and TOEFL because they are not easy and can create a little bit of a problem. 
  3. The third factor is the SOP supported by the LOR’s. Here SOP means a letter of recommendation and LOR is the professor who taught you the courses. Find a faculty who will help you in your research and write a supervised thesis to be included in the SOP which can prove to be a great benefit for you. 

Try to answer few questions by yourself about the purpose of the degree. Will it really be helpful in the future? Form small steps and slowly go for the final decision. Optimize your plan after you get the answers to these questions and then formulate a plan.

Having been a topper in all my unit tests how should I prepare further for my anna university "first semester" exam to get a cgpa of 10?

HS
Harshita Saravanan Posted On : September 14th, 2021
Studied International Studies at Stella Maris College,Chennai (2020)

Having mentioned that you are a topper in all the unit tests, getting a CGPA of more than 9 would be an easy task for you. Having 20 marks in all your internals would be even more beneficial.

To get a CGPA of 10 is possible, in your first year. Here are some things you should keep in mind for your preparation.

  • Utilize study holidays effectively – For the first semester examinations, the gap between them maybe a day or two. You have to complete the syllabus in the 10 to 15 days of study holidays. Make sure to revise every important portion the day before the exam.
  • Engineering Graphics – Practice more drawings and present the diagrams clearly and neatly. It is a 4 credit paper.
  • Engineering Mathematics – Do not just read the problems, work them out then and there. This will make you confident on the day of your exam.
  • Engineering Physics and Chemistry – The physics and chemistry papers are much easier compared to the class 12th syllabus. Study the textbook thoroughly. Understand the concepts. Present the answers with diagrams wherever necessary. Instead of writing long paragraphs, use points.
  • Technical English – Focus on the grammar first, Examiners tend to read that part fully while evaluating. So try getting full marks in that part which creates a good impression. That might help to get more marks in the forthcoming sections.

Presentation is one of the most important aspects. While writing use blue or black pens. Write answers in points and use Sub-headings. Try to keep your answer sheet neat and tidy and avoid unnecessary scribbling.
