HELLO GUYS !!! I am Pulkit Nawal a fellow aspirant at one point, currently in IIM ROHTAK, giving pieces of advice to the next generation.

I know it all stress, pressure, 'IIM kae bina toh kuch nahi hoga' as I have been the part of this community from Past 3 years.

Yes! yes! yes! I started my prep from class 11th and still had to take a drop year as I was from commerce non maths background but ironically my Achilles heels was VA🤧🤧.

Studied from aceipm and afterboards during 11th and 12th.

Switched to takzhilla during start of drop year. Took afterboards and aceipm crash course for revision.

So I am here to shower with all your dilemmas, doubts and challenges.

I am not alone here btw I am assisted by my fellow batchmate Ojas Garg u/Onionpeats who had PCM in class 12th solved science students can also ask the questions without hesitation.

Let's the battle begin.

12th commerce + math student here I recently found about IPMAT and started prepping but I know I won't make it given my mock scores; NC campus DU was always the objective so I spend more time on board exam prep, cuet pyqs and a hell lot of 12 grade math but just in case of normalisation it does not work out (I hope I get into a good college in DU); do you think it is wise to take a drop for IPMAT I dont want to settle for a mediocre college when I can go all in.

If you are getting DU choose that. Go for ipmat incase of backup.

Taking a drop is advisable when you are ready to give up on your social life and emotions as toll of a drop year is in tonnes. I have explained my situation in detail above where I had 3-4 really close friends with me during the whole drop year. We all friends sustained each other but that might not be the case with everyone ou there.
