For an incorrect answer, one mark is deducted from the candidates' total score. This means that for five correct answers, 20 marks will be added to the total score. The raw score of candidates is scaled to calculate the composite score. Candidates who match the IPMAT cutoff criteria are further called for the Personal Interview round. 

For final results, 65% weightage is given to the scores obtained by the candidates in the IPMAT exam and 35% weightage is given to the candidate's performance in the Personal Interview (PI).
