HopeIDontFail Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 So these are my previous marks, and my aims: June '17 Final Marks: Math SL: 6 Econ HL: 6 Business HL: 6 ESS: 6 Arabic B HL: 5 English Lang&Lit A SL: 4 Total: 33 + EE/TOK External '18 Aims: Math SL: 7 Econ HL: 7 Business HL: 7 ESS: 7 Arabic B HL: 6 English Lang&Lit A SL: 5 Total: 39 + EE/TOK Do you think these are attainable, especially considering I got lucky with ESS and probably deserve a 4 in that subject?

shellziess Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 Statistically I would say Maths and ESS are the hardest to achieve a 7 in, so is economics if you are not perfect in it. So I would prepare to not have high hopes but continue striving for these grades and I am sure you won't be far off. 2 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering I have to catch up on ESS on 4 different chapters, I am not good at ToF Econ, and I've got a 3 in my IOC, its honestly looking like my grades are going down, not up Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shellziess Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 Still strive for what you want to achieve but dont expect anything (any grades etc.) to be fixed. That was my strategy. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my strategy. I really struggle with time management. What used to be your strategy after every school day in terms of study? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shellziess Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 I was lucky I had one subject less to study for, as maths studies was an easy 7 for me. But in terms of IB2, I recommend finishing all your IA's, EE and TOK stuff before mocks so from mocks on you can focus on exams. Beware that mocks are only the first part of your studying journey so even if you do not achieve high grades you can learn a lot from mocks. I cannot explicitly tell you my studying strategy coz for every person that is different. Test out a few strategies and see what fits best.

Thanks for your help/advice out of curiousity whyd you study in Israel? Nothing against that but there are some brilliant unis in EU (uni of Manchester for example) that would take you easily Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shellziess Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 (edited) Back to my roots. I'll do my Masters in the EU. I just love Israel. Also my uni had wonderful partner unis. Edited August 25, 2017 by shellziess Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
