Not gonna lie, advising 16-18 year olds to spend all their spare time in 2 years working on IAs to achieve 43 points is terrible advice. Not saying you shouldn’t do that, but you can definitely achieve those points without sacrificing your life. Those years are fairly important for your social development, which is arguably more important than your IB score when landing grad jobs
I agree with you. I made a video on how to balance social and IB life, and why you don't need to sacrifice your whole social life for IB th-cam.com/video/E3kCrfSwfA0/w-d-xo.html But, those IA points are very important, and if you were in M20, they were extremely important. Most people gloss over this and lose marks. So I stick by Alex here.
@@iblikecole9167 that’a fair. I was part of M16. I can only talk from personal experience, being predicted 43 and ending with 38 (Maths HL papers for M16 were insane) and I preached the work-your-ass off advice. But looking back I could have performed equally well while leaving more time for friends and extra-carriculars. Still appreciate you dishing out advice though and it’s clearly helping some people, so keep it up!
Gonna get a 45 on the IB, I know it.
You get it yet sebas?
this video is sooo valuable, thank you for making this seriously.
Thank you so much for the advise :)
Always welcome!
Banger, your videos are really useful; keep up the good work.👍👏
Glad you like them!
Can you recommend some physics resources? Ideally some website with worksheets for each IB physics topic. Thanks!

Does anyone know how to start a math IA? I have difficulties finding a research question
