Hello, I will be appearing for the 2027 exams(I am a commerce with math student) I have a doubt. I will purchase takshzila self-prep course where Nishant and Chandra sir teach and contains sub topic exercises and unit tests as well, along with Arun Sharma LOD 1&2, for IPMAT specifically i will take aftb, which gives topic and sectional tests but the question is do i need to solve Arun Sharma and when to buy aftb bundle? And for VA, should i purchase any course like VARC1000 or YT or any other way? Apart from this, as IPMAT Rohtak and JIPMAT have LR and DI a bit as well so should I buy a course for this(LRDI) as well if not how to prepare? Lastly, how to manage boards, CUET, IPMAT Indore & Rohtak altogether and thank you so much for your time.

Okayy soo basically
First of all getting takshzila is a great choice, chandra sir especially i know for a fact teaches very well.
Secondly I believe Arun Sharma is not necessary to do, like the question quality was okay but a lot of the solutions i found were not that good. I wont keep arun sharma as a primary source of practice it can be done if you have done everything and still have to much time
The right time to buy afterboards is whenever you have the money to buy it, because it can help you create a very good foundation for a lot of things.
So my advice on this is going to be Takszhila + Afterboards is a very good combination and can be ample for your preparation for Quants
Taksh provides with a lot of questions and Afterboards have unlimited sectionals and topic tests.
Keep Arun Sharma for after you have exhausted most of the resources from these two sources
For VA you do not really need any courses or anything to buy
Start by reading this document - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1r6Pc8jWfF9TIYhRjU0XdbKY7pzrkP8nn/view
and Watching this video - https://youtu.be/Fi9_cCjIDJY?si=TzACFxpO442-7aVm
and the 2nd half of this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QaGM4njSv9k
This all will give you a very good idea about how to go about your VA preparation
In terms of Resources, Just the Daily RC on afterboards, VA topic tests, Unlimited sectionals
and it will help you immensely if you do it while also following the advice given in the document and videos above.
You dont need to buy an DILR course or anything, I believe Cracku a youtube channel has a very good video on DI and you can find many more about DILR like the concept part of it which is quite small, after that it all boils down to just practicing these things which you can do through giving a lot of JIPMAT and IPMAT Rohtak mocks
See i would sayy as you have a lot of time for your boards, prioritize IPMAT as of now and try to get as much done as you can, and then as soon as the boards start approaching start cutting down the time given to IPMAT and start focusing more on boards.
and for IPMAT Rohtak and JIPMAT just keep giving mocks while completing the syllabus
Do remember that prepare well for your board examinations as they create a very strong foundation for your CUET examinations and all you would have to do is give a lot of CUET mocks.
If you have any further doubts feel free to ask
You have a lot and a lot of time in your hands, use it efficiently
All the best !!!
Thanks a lot. I just wanted to ask, should I read news paper daily, and should I read all the articles or just read editorials? And what about essays or mag. Like Aeon or Smithsonian, etc. Should I read them as well? If so, how often, daily/weekly?
Thank you so much for giving your valuable time.
