Hi Surbhi Siwach,

Thanks for A2A!

I am a student from IIM Indore and I belives that makes me qualified enough to answer this question with accuracy.

The IPMAT exam gives you admission into the Integrated Program in Management at IIM Indore. Now the students who graduate get a BA (Foundation in Management) and an MBA degree both at the end of 5 years. Also, students also have an exit option at the end of three years. This makes it a very flexible career path.

IPM lays a very strong foundation for a person who wishes to make a career in management and in a case like yours where your class 12th is in commerce I believe IPM is a wonderful choice.

Infact in placements also the average package for IPM graduate is same as a fresher from MBA. The highest package of 63L was also bagged by an IPM student last year. So I believe if you are opting for IPM, go for it!

It's great.

All the best
