So these are the two commentaries I worked most on. One is on Preferential Trade Areas (PTAs) between Mercosur and Sacu, so Module 4 on International Economics. The second one is based on Module 5 Developmental Economics and it concerns infrastructural development with the Bandra-Worli sealink (bridge) in Mumbai, India.
Both of there were predicted 6s by my teacher, but the IB bumped all our grades up (yeah, our teacher was that much of a hard ass). So after the IB moderation I had 7s in both and ended with a 7 overall.
Anyway, I know my Economics teacher is using these two as samples for his classes after I graduated, so I thought I'd put them up here too.
Hope they prove to be useful to you guys!
Arrowhead.

Hello, all! This is my complete Economics Internal Assessment Commentary Portfolio for the May 2011 Exam Session as a Junior in the first IB class at my school. Even though I didn't know completely what I supposed to produce, these came out pretty well and although I don't know exactly what score these received out of the 20 possible marks, I made a 5 in Economics SL course overall so they can't be that bad but as soon as I find out I'll report the exact score here. Since I'm the only IB Economics student who remained in the Diploma Programme in my Senior year, I assist the lower IB students this year prepare their IAs and I would have killed for more sample IAs last year; so in order to help all those in need of another sample IA, I offer mine.
Good luck!
