CAT

We hate to brag, but when the success numbers are this good, there’s no way we wouldn’t flaunt it. 3328 unique IMS students secured final IIM admits in CAT 2025, surpassing the previous year’s numbers of 2,643. At IMS, success is a habit. That’s the reason why, year after year, we are able to deliver results that our students envisioned when they decided to prepare for CAT with us. This lofty number includes admissions to some of the top IIMs in the country, such as IIM Ahmedabad, IIM Bangalore, IIM Calcutta, IIM Kozhikode, IIM Indore, and IIM Lucknow.

We’re pleased with the results and proud of our students for achieving this magnificent feat for the ages. Their victory is testimony to the fact that, with the right mentorship, preparation, and commitment, the dream of walking through the doors of an IIM is just within reach.
