Is it after 12th grade that we have to apply for the ipm exam or is it during the 11th grade itself ?
Hello Dear,
IPM is an integrated program of management aptitude test which offers a dual degree(Bachelors + masters) within a span of 5 years.
The eligibility criteria for the examination are:
Age: Candidate should be at-least 20 years in age and for SC/ST students it is 25.
Qualifying Exam: Candidate should have passed Standard XII/HSC or equivalent examination at most 2 years before or is going to appear the same year of giving the examination.
Minimum Percentage (%) of marks: Candidate should have Minimum 60% in standard X/SSC and standard XII/ HSC or equivalent examinations (55 % for the candidates from SC/ST/ PwD category) .
You can only apply for the exam if and only if you fit in all the criterias. Thus, you need to apply for the exam when you are in class XII or have passed it a maximum of 2 years before.
