Hey, Kishan!

Adding on to what Abhinav said earlier; as a current student of the program, I can assure you that your science background will be helpful, at least in the first year as you have to take subjects such as linear algebra, integral calculus 1 and 2. Also, please be informed, that your knowledge in mathematics due to your science background will indeed come handy but subjects such as political science, microeconomics and macroeconomics might require additional efforts to be put in on your behalf. 


Please note, it's not a BBA+ MBA program; you're awarded a BA (Foundations in Management) degree after successfully completing the first three years of the program. It is a BA (Foundations in Management)+ MBA program.

P.S. as a current student, I can assure you that we have a mix of students of every background, be it science, commerce or arts, so if you're interested, do go ahead and give the exam. Hope this helps. All the best!

Hello Kishan,

IPMAT is conducted every year by IIM, Indore for admission in its 5 year integrated program BBA + MBA. To crack this exam a candidate must have good command over maths, reasoning and English.

You can attempt this exam and we generally see that candidates from science stream perform very good in these aptitude test. 

So, go for it. I wish you all the best.
