Guy that has been leading me on for 2 yrs reveals he had a gf...

how cooked am i for exams 🤡

I am struggling with motivation to study.... what do i do

IDK why my last post got removed but we need to ban Revision Village because they have 30 different “official” accounts in this sub that they use to create fake AMAs and now they are spamming ads in the comments on other posts too 🥀💀 Please mods 🙏

Also someone commented proof in the last thread that they are literally posing as students from fake accounts and making recommendations to buy their shitty $499 question bank. Somebody needs to investigate this, there is some shady shit going on.

Hi! I’m Max, an IB graduate now studying Aerospace Engineering. Since finishing the IB, I’ve been tutoring students and running IB workshops.

I’m exploring an idea for a free revision app and want to understand how students review earlier topics, what they find difficult, and whether another tool would actually be useful.

I’ve put together a 2–3 minute survey.

No name is required. You can optionally leave your email if you’d like an invitation to test an early version.

Thanks, and feel free to share with other IB students or graduates! :)

Like, I get that we need to do the exhibition and essay, but do we really need to take notes in TOK class? At the moment it just seems like a filler class, and no one pays attention. Should I care that much or just do it when the time comes to do the assignments?

I am struggling in chem and bio HL with low grades although I study a lot of chem and biology and do past papers however when I do past papers I feel so lost in especially bio and I don’t have the time luxury to go through each topic as exams are coming up (mocks) I’m aiming for a 40+any advice

So basically I would like to go to another country to study, and as of now my predicted is 29.. kind of low but I hope for better. Do they rlly play a big role or is the final one more important?

This is my first year in the IBDP Programme and I’ve been trying to think about what classes I want to HL. The problem is, I feel like I’ve kinda been dealt a bad hand with teachers (although this may just be early judgement because it’s my first semester.)I already plan on taking HL Lit and Lang because that’s my first language, but I’m conflicted on what other two classes I should HL.

IB Math AI- I know this is the easier math, but math is really not my strong suit, and my teacher has repeatedly warned us how hard it would be to HL this course, although he is willing to help us prepare for it. I don’t really plan on going into anything STEM related anyways.

IB History- Apparently Paper 3 is a nightmare, and although I’m not bad at it, I feel like I am not passionate enough about history to HL it. My teacher has also discouraged HLing it due to difficulty and doesn’t seem willing to help us through it. I don’t think her teaching style what I would need in order to retain the amount of information I would need for this course

IB Spanish B- This is a last resort, but I don’t think I would do well on it. I took the AP exam and got a 2, but I think that if I put in enough work, I could maybe manage a 4? My teacher is really nice and open to HLers, it’s just not my strong suit.

IB Philosophy- Although I was initially interested in this class, it’s just become a bore for me. My teacher just reads the works that we study out loud and expects us to take our own notes and essays without any guidance. I likely will end up HLing because it may be the easiest of the classes I’m taking, but I don’t really have a passion for it anymore.

IB Biology- I love biology. I took the AP exam and got a 4 and although everyone here is super smart, I’m still proud of my score. The problem is, my teacher is really bad at teaching, and it’s basically a self study class. My AP class was also similar and although it was doable, it’s so frustrating to sit in a classroom where the teacher just reads the textbook and assigns difficult tests that he creates with AI. Any attempts at extra help are seen as disrespect as he thinks that us not understanding what he is reading is us calling him a bad teacher. Last year (which was his first year teaching IB Biology), he submitted students IA’s late and I’m afraid that something would happen again. I would definitely HL this class if I had a different teacher, but I’m conflicted on what to do. He is making us study HL topics and giving us HL tests so I do feel like with enough studying, I could be prepared for it.

Honestly, as I write this, I feel as if I learn best through interactive teaching that actually causes you to think instead of just stress over cramming for a test you have a day after you’ve learned a topic. It may be personal preference, but I’m stuck with all these teachers for the next two years so I’m trying to figure out the best way to navigate everything.

hi guys im an m27 student and im super super confused about the 15 marker econ hl paper 2.

ive heard different things from different people and teachers but I just dont understand if its required that we include rwes in this paper in addition to the extract provided. usually i write my paper 1 15-markers with an evaluation of a “for” and “against” side, and i use a separate rwe for each, and i’ve been doing really well following this format. i was wondering if thats the same for the paper 2 15 marker? would the extract give enough info that i wouldnt need to provide extra examples (i can base both sides using given info)? or is the 15 marker here structured different from my “for and against” structure?

sorry this post is super wordy, any guidance on what to reference/include/structure for the paper would be really appreciated!

i found some history hl notes from years ago when i sat the exams and thought hopefully someone would find them useful...two degrees from oxford later and sometimes I still look at them.

Hii guys, I need help with my EE 😭😭
The subject is English and my methodology involves either watching interviews or doing them myself
If you’re from Queens, NYC (or have lived there for a long time), and you’re willing to help with my research, I would really appreciate it if you could comment so I could get in touch with you 🥺
It will be very quick and will just involve normal conversation, not even complicated questions 🙏

I need a high 6 or 7 but i genuinely have no clue what they look like since Ive never seen an exemplar. Here's my writing right now please help anybody please i beg literally my exams in like a week

Hey, I have my final history IA submission tomorrow, its currently graded 21/25. I read the last few years grade boundary has been 20-25 for a 7, do I rely on that and say this is a good buffer for that, or quickly try and fix the section that needs an extra point of 2

GRADE BOUNDARIES for Norway (zone 2?)

Currently

full marks for A and C, falling a bit on B.

Obviously can't rely on the same grade boundaries applying this year, but I'm already pushing the word count (and have cut 500 words) so I don't want to have to rewrite to make space for an extra point or two.

Idk help a history student out

I paid for Revision Dojo Pro at the end of my term 3 of DP1 around July, having like plenty of subjects; Math AA HL, Business HL, Econ HL, CS 2027 HL, Chem HL, English A lang and lit SL, Spanish ab initio SL, Physics HL, and TOK. But until today I was trying to hop onto dojo to study for my PHYSICS HL EXAM IN TWO DAYS, and guess what it decided to redo my subject list, NOW SPECIFYING THAT I CAN ONLY HAVE 6 SUBJECTS AND THAT TO GROUP WISE MANDATORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. so I am like yo nah whats going on. So can y'all help me out and tell me what to do and how I could get my subjects back?

I stated i used ai for aid in research but didnt cite ai itself....

I just relized its part of ib regulations to cite the ai too but i only use ai without making an account so everything got loss. It that bad?

Some of my citations have blablabla source:chaptgpt is that enough. I already submited my ia but show i request to resubmit and just create an account now and ask the same questions i asked before.

What are some long-term and short-term CAS experiences I can do??

-> I'm still learning how to code, so I was wondering if there were any activities I could do that would help me with more active learning.

i have 3 HLs,

Math AA HL

Business Management HL

Digital Society HL

the only one that i really need to get a 7 on, is math aa hl. and fuck my life its gonna be hard. so this is for me and for the people in the comments, do you have any tips to get good in math aa hl?

resources, study tips, ANYTHING BRO ANYTHING

New to DP1 and found out there is this site called revision dojo that helps with almost everything for IBDP.

I'm unsure if it is worth for using its free version or no? The content sections are quite small and summarized.

So I haven't been assigned to do IA but I know that I will really get stressed out in DP 2 how can I prepare.. I want to start but what if my whole research question gets rejected wouldnt I waste a whole lot of time

Hey guyss I'm a couple months into ib and have my midterms soon. And math ai was fine until we started the hl part, i understand the concepts but the questions on revision dojo are so hard. I've heard that it's ai slop, i just want confirmation as to whether that is actually how the questions look or it's just ai slop. And if it is ai slop can someone recommend a good place for topicals. Any advice or resources mean a lot!

Tysmm

My grades have been mediocre! Help! So far I've scored a 6 & 2 on my first quiz, then a 5 & 4 on my second quiz.

I feel like I know the content, especially when I review it, but for some reason on tests I always struggle to answer the questions.

Especially on ToL questions; for example, on the last test it was asking about the bonds & properties of an unknown element, and for some reason I was just incredibly confused! Even though I know the properties of specific bonds such as ionic! But! What is happening!

Is it innovative or goofy for my math IA, if its not that bad how can i specify it into an actual aim.

I've submitted my UCAS application but my school doesn't give us predicteds for TOK/EE. My school counsellor said it's ok and he just put them both as "pass" and said that this tells unis that the score is out of 42. I just want to make sure that this is true or not.

I genuinely don’t know if doing this amount is gonna get me good marks. I’m currently doing:

HL Literature A
HL Psychology
HL Chemistry
Spanish ab initio SL
Math aa SL

I did my other subject in may so that’s all I’m studying for.

In the beginning of the study I genuinely was doing more than 6 hours a day but the closer the exams come the worse my procrastination has become and the less hours I’m doing. I am doing more than 4 hours a day roughly. Idk I’m trying but I just feel like I’m not doing enough.
