As the day of the Joint Integrated Programme in Management Admission Test (JIPMAT) draws near, aspiring candidates experience a unique blend of anxiety and anticipation. For those who aspire to secure a spot in the five-year integrated program, every second counts.
The national-level entrance exam JIPMAT is organized by the National Testing Agency (NTA). NTA has been conducting this test since the academic session of 2021-2022. Aspirants seeking admission to Integrated Program in Management (IPM) courses at the Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) in Bodh Gaya and Jammu appear for the test.
Last year, the computer-based test was held in 80 centers across 69 cities. In 2023, with 8,712 candidates registering and 7,398 appearing for JIPMAT, serves as a reminder that every second counts. As we are into 2024, let’s take a look at the coming registration dates, eligibility, syllabus, and all other things about JIPMAT this year.
