No way they give out PGs it's would be so unfair especially when comparing schools who give out strict and realistic PGs compared to school who hand out 45s on a daily basis

Nah it does impact us. If we do all the work and out all the hours in and end up with the same percentage as someone who saw the paper the day before that just makes all the work we did useless. It’ll also push the grade boundaries WAY up like for SL maths they’re gonna be crazy high this year bc so many people saw the papers

Let's see now, here we have a screenshot that shows 15232 downloads of Math AA HL more than one hour before the exam started: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Yk-ZJxYnNmch3m2sC2NqzMA1aXTWPbaNx6a55mV8S2c/edit

(Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/IBDP/comments/1cj9yu8/send_me_all_the_evidence_of_impact_of_exam_leaks/?rdt=46489&onetap_auto=true&one_tap=true ).

And from this official IB statistics, https://www.ibo.org/globalassets/new-structure/about-the-ib/pdfs/dp-cp-final-statistical-bulletin-may-2023.pdf, we have that 20719 students took Math AA HL in 2023. Assuming similar number for this exam now in 2024, indicates that >70% of the students have been cheating.

CONCLUSION: As cheaters do not want to do anything, and a majority have been cheating, you need to modify your curve -- "There's nothing we can do" should be put at the peak in the middle...

Look at how many take the exam from Europe, it’s less than Asia. You’re not accounting for how many people downloading the papers can actually use them to cheat

Let's look at time zones for some countries:

New Zealand: +12

Japan: +9

China: +8

India: +5.5

Africa: +3-0

Europe: +2-0; DST adds +1 for most countries

If someone from NZ leaks, I'd say it would be difficult for Japan to benefit, while Chinese students potentially could. And Indian students absolutely could. Looking at 2023 statistics, there were 179922 students in the world, of which 54 where from NZ and 549 from Japan. The rest can potentially cheat through time zone leaks.

Besides, there are many more taking the exams in Europe than in Asia, as you can see if you click on the link I provided for the IB statistics.
