IPMAT 2027 Exam Pattern at a Glance
The IPMAT 2027 syllabus is not one syllabus but three closely related ones. IIM Indore runs its own two-subject test; IIM Rohtak runs a three-section test that adds Logical Reasoning; and JIPMAT (for IIM Jammu and IIM Bodh Gaya) uses a three-section NTA paper. Knowing the structure first tells you exactly what to study.
| Exam | Sections | Questions | Duration | Negative marking |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| IPMAT Indore | Quant (MCQ + SA), Verbal | ~90 | 120 min | On MCQs only |
| IPMAT Rohtak | Quant, Logical Reasoning, Verbal | ~120 | ~120 min | Yes |
| JIPMAT | Quant, DILR, VARC | ~100 | ~150 min | Yes |
Future IIMer tip: If you prepare for Rohtak or JIPMAT, you automatically cover most of Indore's syllabus plus Logical Reasoning. Building your base around the three-section pattern gives the widest coverage.

JIPMAT 2027 Syllabus (IIM Jammu & Bodh Gaya)
JIPMAT, conducted by the NTA, feeds IIM Jammu and IIM Bodh Gaya. It uses three sections framed slightly differently from IPMAT but built on the same Class 10–11 foundation.
| Section | Key topics |
|---|---|
| Quantitative Aptitude (~33 Qs) | Class 10–11 Arithmetic, Algebra, Geometry, Number System, Modern Math |
| Data Interpretation & Logical Reasoning | Tables, charts, caselets, coding, arrangements, puzzles, blood relations |
| Verbal Ability & Reading Comprehension | RC, grammar, vocabulary, sentence correction, para jumbles |
Because JIPMAT stays close to NCERT-level Maths, disciplined Class 11–12 students often find it the most approachable of the three — but the DILR section rewards focused practice.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the IPMAT 2027 syllabus the same for Indore and Rohtak?

Does IPMAT 2027 have Logical Reasoning?
IPMAT Indore does not have a separate Logical Reasoning section. IPMAT Rohtak has a dedicated Logical Reasoning section, and JIPMAT tests it as part of Data Interpretation & Logical Reasoning (DILR).
Which topic has the highest weightage in IPMAT Quant?
Arithmetic carries the highest weightage in the Quant section — around 25% — followed by Algebra and Geometry at roughly 20% each, then Modern Math. Reading Comprehension dominates the Verbal section at about 40%.
Is the JIPMAT syllabus easier than IPMAT?
JIPMAT stays close to Class 10–11 NCERT Maths, so many students find its Quant more approachable. However, its DILR section needs dedicated practice, and cutoffs remain competitive. Difficulty is relative to your preparation.
Is there negative marking in IPMAT 2027?
Yes, on MCQ questions in all three exams. IIM Indore's short-answer Quant questions are the key exception — they carry no negative marking, making them the safest section to attempt fully.
