Here's how you need to learn new words for IPMAT Indore or any other exam with vocabulary questions.

It is easier to learn using their root words. This way, you could learn many other words which have the same or similar roots.

For example, the root words BON/BENE/BOUN mean “well” or “good.”
Let’s have some examples, shall we?

1. Benefit: An advantage; as, the job has fringe benefits
2. Benefiter: One who benefits; as the employee is the benefiter
3. Beneficial: Wholesome; as, bathing is beneficial
4. Benefactor: One who benefits others
5. Benefaction: A gift; a donation
6. Benefactress: A female benefactor
7. Benedict: A male name which means “Blessed"
8. Benediction: A blessing
9. Benefice: The gift of an income to a priest of a church
10. Benevolent: Being good hearted; a well-wisher
11. Benign: not harmful, friendly
12. Bonny: Sweet and attractive; as, a bonny child
13. Bonus: Extra benefits, usually extra pay
14. Bonanza: An unusually rich vein of gold or silver in a mine
15. Bonbon: A small candy
16. Bonbonniere: A fancy dish or box for bonbons
17. Bon mot: A witty remark or repartee
18. Bonify: To convert into good
19. Bounty: A reward; a gift; generosity
20. Bountiful: Generous; munificent
21. Bountifully: Generously

Though it is hard to memorize all these words, now you know that words that have the root bene/bon/boun will have some positive tone to them.

You can make an educated guess. Improving your vocabulary is not about strengthening your memory, but to be able to make educated guesses. So, why waste time learning only one word?

Whenever you think of learning a new word, go for a root word and try some examples for every word that is related.

Bonus point: You can also try the opposites of the root word. For example, the opposite of bene/bon/boun is mal which means something bad, harmful etc.

A benevolent person is someone who is good hearted.
A malevolent person is someone who is evil hearted.
The list goes on: Malign, Malicious, Maledictory, Maledictive etc.
