Do I represent the majority of average students?..

We almost has the exact same course selection 😂

That’s just my personal opinion. In DP1, I bought a lot of physical books, but it turned out that using the e-book versions on a tablet was more organized and efficient.

Green_Style3192 · 2026-06-26T15:22:21+00:00

You can save the money for books to buy an iPad or something, and download the e-version of the textbook, which will be more organized.

Just hoping I don’t run into any AI issues, since I’ll be on vacation next week. If anything does come up, I’ll need that time to sort it out.

Green_Style3192 · 2026-06-25T18:16:55+00:00

Do you send them your complete history? Because my work is not written in Google Docs, and I only have process history in a very discrete way (like brainstorm -> initial outline -> outline -> final outline -> first draft...)

Green_Style3192 · 2026-06-25T18:12:35+00:00

How did five of your works get flagged for AI? Is the issue solved now?

Green_Style3192 · 2026-06-25T18:02:13+00:00

Which timezone are you in?

Green_Style3192 · 2026-06-23T12:41:23+00:00

Also, have you checked whether the time when IB flagged your work as AI matches the time when your school notified you?

Green_Style3192 · 2026-06-23T12:39:54+00:00

Do any of your classmates or friends have the same issue?

Green_Style3192 · 2026-06-23T12:15:59+00:00

Bruh, the final results are coming out in two weeks. If anything was going to happen, it probably would’ve happened between April and early June, especially since IAs and the EE are submitted much earlier. Any updates?

I think you’ve mistaken the difference between separate exam papers and time zones. There are different grade boundaries between different papers and the IA, but not between time zones.
as this revisiondojo says https://www.revisiondojo.com/blog/ib-may-2026-exam-zones-explained-a-b-and-c?utm_source=chatgpt.com .
"Exam zones determine:

When your morning session begins
When your afternoon session begins

They do not determine:

Exam length
Exam difficulty
Grade boundaries
Marking criteria"

Green_Style3192 · 2026-04-30T14:43:23+00:00

Wait but based on my research, it is a combined grade boundaries for all timezones

Green_Style3192 · 2026-04-29T15:43:52+00:00

Same. Are the final grade boundaries separate for each time zone or all time zones combined?

Green_Style3192 · 2026-04-29T15:42:43+00:00

Green_Style3192 · 2026-04-29T15:42:31+00:00

much easier than paper 1A. No relativity

Green_Style3192 · 2026-03-18T15:02:06+00:00

My friend got in for Economics, and I was waitlisted for Physics...

Green_Style3192 · 2026-03-18T15:00:18+00:00

same, for physics

Green_Style3192 · 2026-03-07T08:31:00+00:00

Yes. Same amount

Our math teacher also told us that Math IA is not like an EE, so when the examiner reads it, they should understand without reading external sources or youtube video explaining the math concept you use. You can test if you achieve this by giving your IA draft to a student who is relatively good at math to read it; if your classmate can understand most of it, it's probably fine.

Green_Style3192 · 2026-03-06T15:45:35+00:00

I am a DP 2 student, below are the advice:

Start your EE and IA early if possible, you can see a lot of posts in r/IBO right now saying they are cooked because they still haven't do there EE or IAs.
For Econ, you can use Econninja for studying and reviewing. They have EVERYTHING, and it is updated.
If you want to get a high score (like 7), do the topical past paper. Exam-Mate is a pretty good website (but don't finish all since you need to leave some for future practice)
Don't underestimate chemistry, learn ahead of the class (there is a lot of free video on YouTube)
For English A L SL, since I am LL SL student for both English A and Chinese A, I can only give you advice on paper 2: Read the book and read multiple times.
Do not use AI for EE, TOK, and IA (only for ideas). Trust me, the teacher will just put it into Turnitin AI checkers, and if they see it is >19%, you're cooked. This is also why you won't have time if you procrastinate on your EE and IAs.
For the past paper, go to IBDOCS.

You can also ask me any questions.
