IPMAT Indore 2024 Cut-off

The cut-offs for clearing the IPMAT exam can vary over the years. But clearing the cutoffs doesn’t guarantee admission to the prestigious programs. Every year, around 2000 students clear the cut–offs, after which they are called in for the personal interview round. Only 150 candidates will clear the personal interview rounds.

In IPMAT Indore, it is essential to clear both – the sectional cutoffs as well as the overall cutoff. The cutoff is different for candidates from different categories. We’ve compiled the 2023 sectional cutoffs and overall cutoffs for different categories.
