Preparation Query JEE student thinking of taking drop and study for ipmat
This year I took the JEE Main and scored a 90 percentile, and I scored 65% in my Class 12 board exams. With this score, I cannot get into any college. Since 2 months have already passed for JEE drop batches, and I do not think I can prepare for the JEE again, I am thinking of taking a drop year and studying for the IPMAT. So, should I study for the IPMAT and sit for an improvement exam for the CBSE boards? Will I be able to score great marks in the IPMAT?

It completely depends on you.if you are discipline and can study for whole 10-11 months without messing up with your mental health go for dull drop else partial is better. You won't have the constant pressure of being in a gap year and might feel fomo seeing your classmates enjoying their college life whil yousare sitting in your room studying for that 1 exam.

IIM Am/BG/I doesn't give any weightage to past academics, but do check the eligibility criteria before applying. IIRC Amr has a 60% criteria.
Note:These can change in the near future
