JIPMAT 2025 Question Paper

A mirror image is a reflected duplication of an object that appears almost identical, but is reversed in the direction perpendicular to the mirror surface. (ie left right inversion which means left becomes right and vice versa )

In the given image, the circle is in the top left corner, so the mirror image should have it in the top right. This leaves us with only choices A and D. A, however, is not the mirror image because in A, one of the rectangles, which is perpendicular to the box, becomes angled. 

Hence D is the correct answer. 

Noticing the pattern, we see that in each of the successive images, one > is turned to <. The fifth image there will have all of the > turned to < which makes option B the correct choice. 

Options B and D are correct because in B, a bouquet is a collection of flowers just as a sentence is a collection of words, showing a part-to-whole relationship; in D, a sapling is the young form of a tree just as a foal is the young form of a horse, showing a parent-offspring relationship. In contrast, A is incorrect because a doctor diagnoses patients, while a judge does not diagnose a court; and C is incorrect because a hygrometer measures humidity, not density.

A cube is initially painted yellow on all its six sides and then divided into 27 smaller cubes of equal size. This results in an arrangement similar to a Rubik’s cube. There is one cube located at the center of the cube (at the intersection of the three axes: longitudinal, lateral, and vertical) which remains unpainted. Each of the six sides of the cube has a smaller cube at the center that is painted on just one face. The cube has eight corners, and the cubes situated there are painted on three surfaces. The remaining twelve cubes are painted on only two sides. Consequently, only six small cubes on the cube are painted on one face.

So, we can say statements A,B and D are correct.

Statement C is wrong as there are 12 cubes which have two faces painted.

The water image will be exactly similar to the original, except that the left becomes right and the right becomes left. Essentially if we flip the image by the X axis, we get the mirror image. Of the options, C is the correct choice. 

To arrange the words alphabetically as they would appear in a dictionary, we need to compare each word letter by letter. All four words—Saviour, Savage, Sausage, and Savour—begin with the letters "Sa", so we look at the third letter. At this point, we notice that "Sausage" begins with "Sau", while the others begin with "Sav", so "Sausage" comes first. Among the remaining three words, all start with "Sav", so we compare the fourth letters: "Savage" has 'a', "Saviour" has 'i', and "Savour" has 'o'. In alphabetical order, 'a' comes before 'i', which comes before 'o', so the order is Savage, Saviour, and then Savour. Therefore, the correct alphabetical sequence is: Sausage, Savage, Saviour, Savour, which corresponds to option c) C, B, A, D.

In the following diagram, circle represents businessman, square represents dancers, triangle represents musicians and rectangle represents Indians.

We need to find who is neither a dancer nor a musician but is a businessman and not an Indian.

Businessman - yes

Dancer - no

Musician - no

Indian - No

We know  circle represents businessman = (3,5,7,9,10)

Now, we will remove dancers (square) from it - (5,7)

We will also remove musician (triangle) from it - (3,5,7,9)

Therefore, now only 10 is left.

That is the correct answer.

The watch is 1 minute slow (or 1 minute behind the correct time) at 1PM on Tuesday and 2 minutes fast (or 2 minutes ahead of the correct time) at 1PM on Thursday. The correct clock has traversed $$24\times 2= 48 $$ hours, or $$48*60=2880$$ minutes, while the incorrect clock has travelled $$2880+3=2883$$ minutes in the same time.

The speeds of the correct clock and the incorrect clock, respectively, are $$1$$ minute per minute and $$\dfrac{2883}{2880}$$ minutes per minute. The initial distance between them was $$1$$ minute, therefore, they'll next meet after:

$$\dfrac{1}{\frac{2883}{2880}-1} = \dfrac{2880}{3}$$ minutes, or $$960$$ minutes, which is equal to 16 hours. This will be 5:00 AM on Wednesday. The correct answer is option D.

On observing the words, we identify the relationship between the words and numbers, as for each word, the number is twice the number of letters in the word. DRIVER, for instance, has 6 letters, so the corresponding number is given to be 12; PEDESTRIAN has 10 letters, so 10x2=20 and ACCIDENT has 8 letters , so 8x2=16. 

Now, the word given to us is CAR, which has 3 letters, so it should be 3x2=6; which makes option B the correct choice.

The number of students who qualified from Kolkata are $$2250$$ and from Delhi are $$2000$$, therefore the average number of students who qualified from Kolkata and Delhi are $$\dfrac{2250+2000}{2}=2125$$. The number of students who appeared in the examination from Kolkata and Delhi are $$3250$$ and $$2500$$ respectively, the average, therefore, is $$\dfrac{3250+2500}{2}=2875$$.

The percentage value of the number of average qualifiers out of the total students appeared is $$\dfrac{2125}{2875}\times 100 = 73.91\%$$
