One of my friends graduated from IIM Indore and here’s what I got to know from him. 

• The students were only shown their composite scores in the exam from the 2015 IPMAT.
• The exact marks in the exam are not provided. 
• My friend had gotten a score of 64.3 with the highest reaching 85 and the cutoff for the interview being 42.
• The formula for the computation of the composite score is 60 (Candidate's Quant score – Minimum score) / (Maximum score - Minimum score) + 40 in Candidates Verbal Score – Min score/ Maximum score – Minimum score).
• From my friend’s guesses, she had attempted around 80 questions with an accuracy of around 85 to 90%. 
• So my friend’s marks in the exam must have been between 260-280 (following the +4, -1 marking scheme).

So you can assume that a score of 64 translates to around 270. But do keep in mind that the cut offs of the aptitude test changes every year.

There are several options for which you can opt after the Integrated program in Management, IPM. The variety of courses include the following.

• ISB Certificate Program in Business Analytics
• Fellow Programs in Management from IIMs
• NSE's Certification in Financial Markets, 
• SAP Courses
• Executive MBA from a reputed University
• Ph.D. in management
• Chartered Financial Analyst
• Financial Risk Manager (FRM)
• Doctor of Business and many others.

These courses can add to your existing knowledge and can add to your resume that can help you in the long run for the jobs that you apply for. Also pursuing these courses from a well-reputed university and gaining experience through internships and other projects can help you to become a master of one particular field.

One of my cousins studied at IIM Indore. According to him, yes, IPM IIM Indore has reservations in the final selection round.

IIM Indore, just like any other government institution, follows the reservation policies that are set up by the Government of India for colleges across the country. And, the same is followed for admission into the IPM course of IIM Indore as well.

However, even though this matters, I would suggest you not think about all these factors as of now and aim at scoring the best that you can. 

There is no need to prepare for IPMAT separately if you have studied Maths up to class 12. Just revise all concepts and formulas time and again. If you are worried about English, it should be pretty easy for you considering you read and write in it regularly.

You should be disciplined and have a plan of action. You will be able to complete the entire syllabus required for the exam within 30 to 40 days.

After that, think of focusing your attention on topics that are essential for students. For example, my sister was not fluent in her language skills and she was not on the same level as her peers. For this, she spent extra time working on developing those skills. She completed her language section and devoted the rest of her time to mathematics and solving sums.

You should definitely look at time management and seeing where you lack. Being a student from a mathematics background, you will not need private classes or even tutoring. Prepare well and in advance to go back and work on your weaknesses.

The reason why IIM Kozhikode is given more preference by candidates is due to the size of the batch. The Mumbai campus was started by IIM Indore and the placement process of both institutes is carried out at the same time. Both are among the top ten business schools in India.

The following data shows how the two institutions can go head to head:

Notable companies that are regular visitors of IIM Kozhikode and IIM Indore are American Express, ICICI Banks, Bosch, Amazon, Indigo, etc.

Having done some research on both the colleges, I have gathered some information which I am going to share with you. Hope this answers your question.

• Christ University Bangalore is a more experienced institute. It has the locational advantage being in Bangalore, which is the IT hub of India. 
• A student of Christ University enjoys higher chances of being hired by IT MNC firms, after completing BBA.
• There is no exit option for the IPM course in IIM Indore once enrolled.
• In the current scenario, companies are showing preference to students who have a multi-disciplinary background. Pursuing a BBA and MBA with specializations will be a better option than pursuing a program for five years.
• Moreover, the average packages offered to the students who are pursuing IPM is less than that offered to the students who are pursuing PGDM. 

The final two years of IPM are PGDM. The reason for this is that IPM students have to take IPMAT and for PGDM, they will have to take CAT. CAT is much more difficult than the former. In addition to that, IPM is a new course. So it is really not worth the enormous amount of money. In Christ University, you will know the extent of its brand value.

If we are to compare PGP at IIM Indore Mumbai and PGP at IIM Indore then the former is without a doubt better. 

• Batch Size: IIM Indore Mumbai has a batch size of 65-70 students whereas that of IIM Indore is 450 and above. So, you will be among competitive peers. 
• Better Location: Mumbai is known to be the financial capital of India. major corporates are situated here. Therefore, various esteemed companies visit the Mumbai IIM Indore campus for recruitment purposes. The corporates hesitate to visit the Indore campus as it is a bit farther. Hence, the students at the Mumbai IIM campus have leverage over this matter.
• Class Schedule: Lectures at the Mumbai campus are held at a fixed time that is 9:15 AM to 4:15 PM. No lectures are held after that time. Whereas at the IIM Indore campus the lectures are not held at any particular timings.
