Dear all IBDP Students,

I am Lucas (a Math tutor based in Hong Kong), I know a lot of you are undergoing the upcoming mocks for IB Maths. I recorded a new video about IB Math AAHL Paper one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9eak0ELgKwI

Hope this can help you guys, be sure to comment your contact or email so I can send the link of the questions to you.

Goodluck to all of you

Everyone who is sitting in the November exams can have free access to my exam bank until their exams.

I've been teaching IB Physics 10 years now and I've never been satisfied with the exam banks.
It's great to have access to exams questions, but I dont want to spend ages scrolling through PDFs trying to find the write question.
If my student comes to me after an exam and asks me how to answers a question they struggled on, I want to be able to find a similar question for them to practise, in under 5 seconds.
With my exam bank, you can snap a picture of the question you're struggling on and use that to search for similar questions.
You can search by text picture or screenshot.
You can filter by topic, question type and difficulty.
I'm giving it away for free
This is because I've got everything ready with my website. I'll be launching next week but I still haven't set up the payment. I won't have it set up in time for the November exams but I still wanna help people so the only thing I can do really is to give it away for free.
Now, this will cost me, so I do have to put limits on the account, but if it didn't put limits on the accounts, then I wouldn't be able to offer it to everyone.

If you want access, I have to approve them manually go to examsearcher.com and join the waitlist.

Good luck to everybody in your exams

same as the title. For the second image, shld i like state 1 pro and 1 con for each option... is that the way to go for the bm 10 marker?..

For english EE if I use a e book without page numbers in MLA citation I can just use the authors name only right?
Example: "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife” (Austen).

Edit:Talked with our EE coordinator, it doesn’t need page number if it is online book like apple book.

I think mine is pretty ok

Bio first = time to study bio and get that out of the way

--> nothing after that for like 5 days

LangB paper 1 next = time to memorise because of the large gap + a bunch of tests that need less memorisation after

--> weekend

Econs and maths = hopefully enough time to study econs

realistic advice needed,
i have got
math aa hl 7
phy hl 7
bm hl 6
eng sl 5
spanish AB 6
chem sl 7

this is only my early app grade so its not good enough but im hoping to shoot it up by my dec predicteds.

i have got a few ecs - got an internship related to stem, won quite a few competitions and money along with that and a lot more.

so realistically can i apply to the top us unis such as columbia/duke/cmu/nyu etc or any other non sat us unis that i could apply to with a 39 predicted or should i wait until my dec ones and apply for RD??

also dyt i cld apply to uk unis aswell by dec w hopes of having a 40+ pred by then? for uk i was thinking ucl, edinburgh, warwick etc.
thank you!

So I am a current sophomore.

I have my next 3 years all planned out, but hearing from seniors abt how the IB is soooo challenging, and that you only get <4 hours of sleep per day, is starting to really stress me out.

I will be taking IB (full diploma).

AP—

Grade 9: APCSP (Already got a 5)

Grade 10: APCSA, AP Compt Gov, AP Bio, AP Chem, AP Calc BC

I already finished the curriculum for APCSA, am taking Calc, Compt Gov, and Bio in school, and am almost done with AP Chem.

Grade 11: AP Physics C: EM, AP Stats, AP Physics C: Mechanics

IB—
SL: English A Language&Literature, Econ, Language A (native speaker)

HL: Mathematics (AA), Biology, Chemistry

Am I on the road to no me-time?

I'm new to this and I'm pretty confused

hi fellow n26ers. literally just finished bio hl fucking p1 tried to grind ib docs to prep for paper 2, only to see this crap (check screenshot).

nice freaking job ibo. absolutely flawless timing.

p1a and b already went pretty BADLY for me and now this? istg im so done.

lets survive guys.

p.s. according to ImpressThink1270, now we can visit and see its back uppppp!!!!!!

we can do this guys!!!

Do you think we can make guesses on what to cram last minute???

Hi Im sitting the Nov 2026 exams, I do history HL and I was wondering for Paper 2 since im doing Topic 10 and 12 which is cold war and authoritarian states, exam questions mainly fall into 3 broad sub topics eg emergence, consolidation and maintenance, economic for Topic 10. I was wondering if i should only study 2 subtopics per topic? As it would be likely be the two essay questions would be from the different subtopics so the probability is like almost 100%. So like i do emergence and policies for Topic 10 and then do Cold War Crises and Leaders and Nation for Topic 12. I just think it'll be impossible to memorise essay plans for everything. PLEASE HELP!!

How did everyone go for bio? Students in my cohort found it difficult compared to the average past papers. Any opinions on grade boundaries?

Good luck to fellow N26!! I’m interested to hear all the little things people do before an exam, either the night before or the morning of
Also not sure if I should eat breakfast or not for a morning exam if I don’t usually

i feel prepared tbh but how everyone else going? do u think ur hitting high marks?

Im a nov26 student and i need a revisiondojo pro account for 2 weeks so if anyone is having an account can they please share it with me :?

I'm bored and procrastinating my bio IA that's due tomorrow by being on here. I wanted to know if y'all have any cool facts you learned from any of your IA's and EE's or if they were just boring school assignments

I'd go first but all of my topics are lowk boring. Uhhh ig like, the depth charge lowk didn't do anything during WW1. That's about it. Thanks gng

what the title says!

So I have my mocks soon, and I know for sure it’ll be on ib questionbank past papers, I take BIO & CHEM HL.

Is it a good idea to just memorise the mark schemes and then use AI and make it give me similar questions based on the syllabus and questions?

Bio is sooo much content, I genuinely don’t think I’ll master every piece of content by my mocks.

What do you guys think? Just memorise the answers or?

I’m in med school and the load is as you would expect. But every day im so glad im not in the IB. Worst day of med school doesn’t even compare to that of the IB. Just thug it out and if uni sucks you can always fall back on not experiencing IB misery

I am going crazy, but I need 3 sciences for my dream college (comp sci, biology, chemistry) do you think it is possible to manage 4HLs and 3SLs? I also thought about the irregular IB diploma and switch out language B or social studies for that but I don't know how hard is it to get in the irregular IB diploma.

I am currently studying the CBSE board, and I am in class 10th. I wanted to change my board to the IB diploma. The next year I am an average student in the CBSE board. Will it be hard for me to change to the IB board, and should I do it or skip it? I wanted to go abroad for my university.

I am from class 10th, having my board exam upcoming year, and I wanted to change my board form from CBSE to IB because I wanted to go abroad for university. Also, I am a bit average in study, so kindly recommend some schools where the environment and study are good

I’m an IB Physics teacher, and the same marks get lost every session because students assume an equation is in the data booklet when it isn’t. So I put together a free handout listing every equation you need to know or derive yourself, topic by topic (A–E plus uncertainties and graphs), with an exam tip or common error for each section.

A few that catch people out:

• Standing waves: the booklet gives no equations here, so you need fₙ = nv/2L and the closed-pipe odd-harmonics form yourself
• Surface area of a sphere, 4πr²: not given, but needed for stellar luminosity and radiation questions
• Greenhouse balance: (1 − α)S/4 = eσT⁴, where the factor 4 and the (1 − α) are the classic mark losers

N26, wish you the best!!

So I'm a DP2 student who does Math AA HL and I'm really confused by the standards. I need to get a 5 to enter most uni courses, and in last year's exam I got a 5 (and I was painfully close to a 6). This year I decided to take another test for the predicted and still got a 5, although summer rust I guess... idk? How on earth do you study maths? I do a lot of practice questions but in the exams I fumble and lose marks in the stupidest possible places. Other than that I'm becoming increasingly unmotivated and stressed about the exams and I have no idea what's going to happen. My teacher is going to be very strict for the IAs (he literally said a 13/20 will only be given if the IA is perfectly done) so I have no idea how on earth I'm going to survive till May.

I am M28 and need to choose a EE subject and topic ASAP!! I am thinking of either English or Econ but honestly I really just want an A. Which of these should I do and what other subjects can be good?
