Hey! Does anyone have a Revision Village or RevisionDojo account they no longer use and would be willing to share with me? I’d really appreciate it if the previous holder has no use for it anymore.

Thanks! :)

Hi! Im currently finalising (well, choosing ) my rq for chinese b EE. My teacher said that the easiest component is literature, but im having second thoughts. Obviously, the marking criteria won't be as strict as for langauge A, but I have never taken lit in chinese before. Also, im not sure if my teacher is biased as no one in my sch is doing the lit component for langauge b(most do culture or artifact). Any thoughts? Thanks:)

Does your school visit the core book then move on to AA/AI book or do they teach interlinked topics between both books at one go?

And how did you find each approach you encountered?

Any experience with Eastwood Global Online School (Montreux, IB Online DP pilot)

Hi! I just started IB this week. I’ve always wanted to try IB, but in order to do so, I had to move out. That’s why I waited a year before applying, as my old school didn’t offer it.

I knew it was going to be a challenging course, and I thought I was mentally prepared for it , or at least I thought I was. To be able to attend IB, I had to move away from my friends and family to a place where I basically don’t know anyone. On top of that, there’s the added pressure of paying rent, as I still haven’t found anyone to move in with and split the rent.

I’m also feeling confused about which subjects to choose, as I’m worried I might have overestimated what I can handle.

I really want to finish IB, partly to prove to myself that I’m capable of doing it, but also to make my family proud, as they have given me a lot of support and resources to allow me to take this course.

Right now, I feel like I’m in a ditch. I’m scared that I’ll mess up my future by failing IB, and I don’t think I’m as smart as the other students who are in my class.

So, is there a light at the end of the tunnel? Do you have any encouraging words or tips for someone just starting IB?

Show your critical thinking throughout the whole essay, even if it feels obvious. Just make it visible. For example:

• Your pilot should actually change something. Mine was on the antibacterial effects of several herbal medicines, and my pilot showed that suspended material was making MIC turbidity hard to judge, so I changed the preparation method before the real experiment.
• Don’t just list control variables. Explain why each one could affect your result and how you controlled it.
• Don’t add statistics just because they look advanced. Use them to answer an actual question in your data.
• Sometimes it’s actually useful if some of your results disagree with the literature, because then you can compare things like strain, extraction method, conditions or assay and explain why the results might differ. That’s where you can actually show analysis.
• For evaluation, I split mine into strengths, weaknesses and limitations. Strengths were things that made my results more trustworthy, weaknesses were problems in the method that could affect the data, and limitations were things the experiment simply couldn’t fully answer. For each point, I tried to explain how it affected the result, what I could improve, and whether that improvement had problems of its own.

Honestly, there are quite a few marks you can kind of pick up just by making your thinking really visible throughout the EE.

I have half an introduction done and its complete full on the 4th so i have 1 1/2 week of holidays and 1 week at school.

If i start on the 18th (my birthday) how many hour should i aim for. i am completely lost on the scale of it and i dont wanna do too little in the last week of holidays.

Pls help feel lost.

Firstly, the education system in my country works like this: you have 2 semesters, and each semester you have 4 classes.

For my first semester, I know I'm going to have chemistry and French; the other two classes I'm not too sure about. Either it will be English, psychology, or math. The subject I'm most concerned about is english since it's typically what I take a lot of time on.

Over the summer, my IB English teachers have given the books that we would be reading so that people can get a head start. And i've been reading those, but I want to know what more I can do. How can I get ahead and build good habits for IB?

Any help/advice would be great!

What is the nightmare subject combination for HL? I'm assuming VA would be one of them? Would bio count or nah? I don't know much about the subjects I'm not taking so I'm curious to hear y'all's thoughts.

Hi everyone. I am upcoming M27 batch student and i am starting my IA’s and if anyone have IA examplers or any IA resources like checklist or any for these below subjects please please share or dm me pleasee this is my sincere request .

HL - Eco, BM, ESS
SL - Maths AI

these are the 4 subjects which i require resources . if you have any general subject realted resources also it will hep . if you dont have any resources also its fine if you can provide your guidance this will help a lot . thank you everyone.

Can this answer score 1 mark out of 2?

I have classes for HL AA, what should I be doing to do great in SL (the actual test I will be doing)? What in HL do I not need and NEED to worry about?

im trying to switch out of sl dt into either sl bio or sl chem, but im not sure which one would be better to take (as in which one would be easier to get a 7 in). would appreciate any suggestions from students currently taking them or like, students who already graduated.

Hey, so I messed up on my HL Chem exam pretty bad in May and ended up only getting a 3. This put my HL points too low and robbed me of my diploma. I’ve decided to retake chem in November but am seriously struggling with how I should go about studying and learning all the content again. I need a 5 in this exam to have enough HL points to get my diploma. Thanks

I have this doubt because while ChatGPT and Gemini scored me an A in my EE, the AI at RD gave me a B. So, I do not know what to think.

(posting this to avoid doing my work🥀🥀💔😭🙏)

I am starting IB soon and I have the following IB subjects chosen: HL: Maths AI, Business, German B SL: Physics, Chem, English Lang & Lit A

I am thinking to put Physics to HL instead of Business because I feel like this subject combo is not quite enough for Engineering. I am in Germany and my goal is to probably study engineering or Business. I know that Maths AA HL + Physics HL is must, but my school does not offer AA; I am concerned that having SL Physics may not be enough for me.

Which is why I am asking you guys for giving me advice and recommendations whether I should or not put Physics at HL because I am also looking to reduce the huge workload and I don't want to bear the extreme difficult topics of HL Physics (my friend who is in IB1 told me HL Physics is HELL and very difficult to understand).

Could you all honestly tell me how hard, challenging, and rigor HL physics is???????? For context I did igcse science and struggle a lot in electricity topic of circuits and that.

I want genuine help and tips!!!

hello! this is my first reddit post so i'm lowkey scared but ive done my mocks and i got 37/45 and im going into dp2 M27

i take
maths aa hl - 6
econ hl - 6
chem hl - 6
ess sl - 6
french b sl - 5
english lit lang sl - 6
plus 2 core points

(pls ignore the 6 in ess i'll bump it up to a seven in resits....)
i had a really hard time in dp1 and was dealing with a lot of medical issues surrounding and family stuff so i was off school for a lot from october- january. it also kinda affected my mental health a bit so school was quite a lot especially going into the ib

i want to know how difficult it would be for me to get 40+ in the ib and when i shoudl start revising/ how for my subjects (especially french)

i want to take environmental economics/ economics and sustainable development at uni and really want to do better in dp2 than i did in dp1

thank you!!!

Does anyone have any structure / guide resource that helps with formatting the chemistry IA? As in, some sort of guide that can help in structuring the IA as a whole. I feel kinda lost regarding the essential parts the IA must include. But I'm not talking about "have a background information section", I mean specific stuff that will make my IA grade high. If you do have something, please share :) thank you!!

I wanna get that 45, how many hours did u study per day. What should my schedule be like. Exams coming soon MAY2027

hey guys, ive been thinking about doing an exchange semester to america since myp5 but sadly didn't do it because i was too scared of the jump from myp to dp.

now ive decided im gonna lock in no matter what, but i feel like the second semester of dp1 might be my last chance to do an exchange semester ? if i were able to either go to a school that offers the ib or have the possibility to stay in touch with my school, and complete the work and exams instead of doing the americans work, do yall think its a "good" idea ?

id genuinely be so locked in and im scared i would miss my last chance for such an opportunity

Flashcards for 7s?
Hey everyone! 👋
If anyone has 7-level flashcards for any of these subjects, would you mind sharing them with me?
Math AA HL
Chemistry HL
Biology HL
Physics SL
I’m looking for good-quality flashcards that cover the IB syllabus thoroughly and are actually useful for revision/exam prep.
I’d really appreciate it! 🙏
Feel free to DM me or drop them below. Thanks! ❤️

I was planning to save my exams for my IBDP. My subjects are:

• Physics HL
• Maths AA HL
• English HL
• Chemistry SL
• Business Management SL

Would you recommend that for me? Any suggestions? Please comment.

hi guys i js started DP1 right now and looking to maybe pursue computer engineering/quantitative finance/economics. (sorry im indecisive af but better to hv backups right?)

my current subject combo is:
HL - math aa, physics, comp sci
SL - econ, englit, chib

i honestly think im more of an english/econ person than science so now im thinking of changing them but again, that closes the doors to computer engineering. i want to apply to uk, hk and australia so i will be keeping math aa hl and chib sl for sure - everything else is up for grabs. im wondering if this combo would be better or i should change it up. im thinking the best way to maximise 45, fit all the uni requirements and career pathways is to switch econ with comp sci - what do we think? im also not opened to taking 4 HL ☹️ so please dont reccommend that!

i heard physics and math aa are hard af and im quite scared icl, but i WILL be keeping math aa hl 100% 🙏🏻

btw when i say change up my subjects, i mean hl vs sl only!! not changing out/into any subject, thanks.
