Integrated Programme in Management Aptitude Test (IPMAT) consists of three sections, of which one big and major section is Verbal Ability. Aspirants often overlook this section, but during exam time they miss their cut-offs in this particular section; itself, thus, this section also needsa daily routine and proper attention.
How important is verbal ability?
It is a section that, when mastered, will act as a booster and help youmaximize your overall score, given the condition that your preparation should be done in a proper way.
What is the proper way?
Before understanding what the proper way is, we should look over the exam pattern of IPMAT-Indore.
LAST THREE-YEAR PATTERN-
1)Reading Comprehension
2)Idioms and Phrases
3)Vocabulary
4)Para-completion
5)Word Usage
6)Para jumble
7)FIB (Fill in the blanks-vocabulary based)
Now, these sets of questions are judging your comprehension skills, grammar, vocabulary, idioms & phrases and reading skills. Thus, you need to develop these skills.
HOW TO DEVELOP THESE SKILLS-
1)READING NEWSPAPER-
Reading can help you immensely; by reading more and more you can develop all the skills listed above, which is the most effective way to enhance your marks. It is a suggestion not to write unknown words while reading; moreover, just mark it and when you are done with your reading, just note them in your books.
2)ANY GRAMMAR BOOK-
There are some defined sets of rules that are very important moreovernecessary for topics likes sentence improvement, word usage, fill in theblanks etc. Books like SP Bakshi, RS Aggarwal are some good and trusted books. Apart from that, you can also look over coaching material like IPM CAREERS. The books are good for building your base.
3)VOCABULARY AND IDIOMS/PHRASES-
One strong suggestion looking toward this phase of IPMAT is the IPM CAREERS book, and it is strongly suggested since In IPMAT 2023 all the words and idioms used in words usage, fill in the blanks were present in the book itself; moreover, every time till yet, it has been seen that inthe IPMAT question paper there are always some common words and idioms that are present in this book.
Apart from this you need some guidance, your daily goals, which you can set weekly, and you need to assess your improvement, for which you should give sectional mocks at a fixed interval. It would again be advisable to have a mentor since they have experience, and they couldstop you before you go on a wrong track, and they could also advise you for your betterment based on your needs.
THE WAY-
The routine for Verbal Ability will be something like this-
1)Read newspaper, editorial at least 2000 words– Don’t just read, try to comprehend faster
2)Grammar-Give an hour to grammar rule.

3)Vocabulary/Idioms & Phrases-just give an hour to them

They purposely focus on that piece of knowledge so that their students get some leads, and they also everyday give some sheets, e-pdfs apart from their coaching materials.
