I'd recommend studying for finals as soon as you finish the syllabus in class so you don't have to cram your revision just before exams start, like I did You should also be familiar with the syllabi; i.e. be aware of what they could ask and what definitely won't be asked in your subjects. You should also do as many past papers in the given time limitations as possible. If you're like me and are able to recognize similar or the exact same past exam questions, you'll be advantaged. Sometimes the IB sets questions that are very similar to former past paper questions. And also, don't rely on your teachers. Be resourceful, i.e. don't just rely on the information your teachers give you - find your own information and complement your teachers' with that.I got 6s and 7s on my assignments throughout the year, but I didn't put equal effort into every single piece of homework. It depended on what I thought was worth putting effort in Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
