BI Duck Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 Hi!So I recently got the news that my friend failed the IB because he missed the 28 points after getting an E on his EE... I wanted to ask: What procedure do you have to follow in order to get the IB diploma after failing the EE?He passed all of his other topics (including the TOK Essay).

Drake Glau Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 (edited) Hmm I think he is able to completely retake class (for exmaple retaking p1 p2 and p3 of chem) exams, however his/her IA stuff will be stuck where it is. You didn't mention the score so he'she will need to retake enough exams to hit the 28 mark. I don't think they will let anyone redo an EE. You can also have the EE remarked and hope for a D at least (assuming the 24 mark was met) Edited July 10, 2011 by Drake Glau Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drake Glau Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 (edited) Can always just remark the EE then, it'll cost, but he doesn't have to do anything but hope for a D+The grading of the EE can vary by quite a bit depending on the grader because the rubrics for all the writing is rather vague in my opinion. Just look at the ToK essay rubric for a perfect example =/ Edited July 10, 2011 by Drake Glau Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
