I am quite depressed about my possible Maths HL score for the November 2022 session. So far my CS Sl, Lang A Sl, and Business Sl exams have been great, and the Physics HL exams were surely better than Maths HL's. I am considering retaking the Maths HL exam as I believe I could do better if I just had some more time. I had a terrible time management in DP2, and EE and IAs took so much time that I did not have the chance to study properly for the real exams. For my SL exams and English B Hl, and partially for Physics HL, this was not a huge problem as I was already confident with them, however I think I messed up my Maths HL papers. But I just don't want my IB journey to en…

Being an IB student in year 12 , it is so freaking difficult for me to manage my sleep schedule plus being in the school I am , I practically have to self-study and have tutors AFTER school again and then of course doing my IAs , mind you I haven't started my EE or TOK essay and I am doing May 2023 session. My lack of sleep (sleeping 3-4 hours) has made me so slow in general. I am stuttering while sleeping , I can barely speak properly and my anxiety is on the roof (I am not an anxious person at all) but this lack of sleep. I have tried schedules on notion and followed them but the guilt of not being able to study for 3-4 hours after school seeps in and I can't get myself…

I am selling my Revision Village account since I have finished my IB DP program. This membership helped me score a 7 as a final grade in MATH AA HL, and I would recommend it to anyone taking DP Math. The membership is GOLD, meaning it gives lifetime access to all questions and answers. New it costs 200€, but I will price it at 100€ to sell it fast. Message if interested.

Hello to whoever is reading this, In the past week I have submitted two pretty awful and unfinished IA drafts. I fully acknowledge that this is my own fault due to my poor time management, but I was wondering if anyone had advice on what I should do now? One of the teacher's at my school told my classmates and I that; Poor draft = Poor feedback = !!BAD IA!! Needless to say this statement has been stressing me out a bit. If any IBDP 1 students happen to be reading this then DON'T BE LIKE ME. Manage your time well and hand in the best possible draft you can.

This might sounds hilarious but I am currently reaching my last year of IB with a predicted grade of 28. I do realised that I haven't don't the amount of work required, but also decided to take physics, computer science, math aa and economics as HLs last year. Right now I have dropped my math aa to sl, but I am just carious if I would be able to have some improvements if I starting to do some work? is there still time available?

Hi, I am in despirate need of help. My maths teacher has said that she set the maths IA draft deadline for the end of the school term nd has said that of we do not meet this deadline anything we hand in later is considered a final draft and she will give no feedback on what we submit. Is this allowed? I wasn't aware of the deadline and have also had Philospohy, Biology and ESS IA's at the same time as well as the EE draft to be handed in and the TOK exhibition AND mocks the second week back of september. Any feedback would mean the world to me!!!!!

Hi! I did not get great IB predicted grades at the end of DP1, totaling 29, which I am not very proud of. I would like to really improve this and I am willing to do so. I am just wondering if I can improve my grades in time for my exams which will be in May of 2023. Thanks!

Hi all, I'm going to be taking IB in a few months, and just now I have been told that the group 3 subject I chose (history SL) isn't being offered due to a low number of students selecting it (only 2!). Now, I'm stuck between business, economics, and geography as my next choices. I've already narrowed it down to either economics or geography. I plan on going into either forensic science or genetics. My HL Subjects: Math AI Chemistry Biology My SL Subjects: English Spanish Ab Initio Any advice on which subject to choose would be greatly appreciated!

I want to do HL chemistry and biology. But i don't know what math course to do, at the moment I'm at an average of 5 in maths and I'm starting IB in a year but my subject choices start at the beginning of next year. My school only offers AA SL or HL and AI HL if you're taking an HL science. I'm also planning on taking english lit SL, business management SL and Spanish B SL. Do my choices seem reasonable in regards to the HL subjects?

So I'm doing an extended essay on physics on the relationship between tension and frequency on a violin string. This is my second topic (as first one was too hard to analyze data) and I'm worried that the topic is too generic. Can extended essays with a generic topic score well or do they have to be quite original?

Hi guys. I'm M22 and I created a website where I have gathered a list of websites I used during my IB Diploma program. They have been grouped into categories: Past Papers, Syllabus and Revision Guide, Textbooks and Revision Notes, Youtube Channels, and Forums. There is also a google drive link to access a folder with resources I used. I will be updating the folder with new resources regularly. Furthermore, I have also gathered ones for IGCSE and A levels so if you know people who do these curricula, you could tell them. https://www.resourceify.com/

I’m going to write a ib math ia topic about evaluate different ways to calculate gini coefficient of the US in 2020. But there are some ias have the same topic, some of them may have the same structure with me since methods to calculate gini coefficient is limited. If I do not copy their work, and just write my own, will IB think I plagiarize others work even I use different data’s with others(i use the data about the US, others don’t)?

I was reported to have cheated (possession of a mobile phone) on an exam. This particular exam was 2 papers in one sitting and I am SL so they are the only papers in the exam. My accusers do not have any evidence and I truthfully did not cheat. The people who took the test around me also verified that I did not cheat except for one - the guy who reported me. Will I not be awarded by diploma if my papers are scored as a 0? This is very unfair as anyone could report anyone for anything. Is there enough evidence to punish me?

okay so hi I'm an eighteen-year-old, currently studying business at one of my country's top colleges. BUT, this college is mad trashy- like, my parents and I were so happy and excited that I got into THIS college, but now, when I'm actually studying here, it sucks. It really does. I was the class valedictorian throughout high school and I thought maybe I'd excel just like that in college and all my further studies. But since my first semester of college was completely online, I haven't been able to analyse myself. I had applied to a few universities in the UK the last year, I also had an offer from Warwick but since I didn't get the scholarship, I couldn't …

I am on half of the first semester and I am thinking to change economics to psychology. I cannot understand and economics does not fit me at all.

Okay, so. I got accepted to the IB this year and am going to start high school this fall. However, and don’t make fun of me for this, despite being like 14 I have a boyfriend, and hobbies, and friends. None of which have anything to do with the program. Thing is, I don’t want to sacrifice my teenage years for a good score on the IB test, or give everything up for a chance at MIT. I want to be happy outside of school, and knowing myself, my time management skills, and my pending adhd test result, i might end up absolutely drowning in schoolwork and losing the social life, or doing animation and talking to my friends and then consequently flunking out of school. It’s scarin…

I've already found a school to retake my IB exams in November, the issue is that the syllabus I studied under no longer exists. The subject mathematical studies SL no longer exists, and has now been replaced by another subject. Am I allowed to just pick a different level of mathematics since Math studies is no longer an option...? I would like to go for Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches HL since it's a requirement for one of my desired programs in uni. Will that be doable or not? Will my previous IA grades carry over? Thanks in advance for all the help.
