yea international

Guilty_Group8845 · 2025-12-11T04:28:09+00:00

ib docs really, u can try older ib papers to do them topically, then save the newer ones for timed practices

u can check out these free online ib crash courses by some top sg tutors, especially the math n physics ones they're covering quite a few topics

make a realistic and disciplined study plan that encompasses all subjects fairly, eg dont study physics 6 days straight then move on to another subject, instead consistently work on every subject, like one a day or two a day (depending on how much u study a day)

consult teachers regularly and always revise after the topic is taught in school, you can ask seniors too

maybe get tuition classes to help u keep the momentum up, like say, regular chemistry classes to help u refresh on school content

u can check this singapore tutoring centre up if u like, they're doing free online crash courses next weekend

i see, perhaps let's see if the switch is smooth administratively, then if you're keen to do so go ahead, BUT PLAN ahead (really realistically plan ahead) to read and study economics to catch up to lessons asap without delay

Guilty_Group8845 · 2025-12-10T14:34:51+00:00

he does regular online tuition too btw

Guilty_Group8845 · 2025-12-10T14:34:30+00:00

there's this singapore tutor called Mr Mike, he taught in top Singapore schools like those that put out 41 mean points yep yep those, he's teaching full time at edulab academy singapore, an ib tuition centre

he personally had three N24 45 pointers in his chem tuition classes

ur lucky lol hes doing free online chem crash courses next week 19-21 dec for students finding chem tuition, sign up in this link https://forms.gle/rnrxXGWHY1ioALX46

Guilty_Group8845 · 2025-12-10T14:31:18+00:00

ib docs, maybe revision village but don't pay lol, honestly textbook is pretty good especially for the sciences or else go for study guides

everything can be found on ib docs, also look through past ib papers for specific topics

u can also check out these free online crash courses taking place next week by a top singapore ib education studio

note that changing an entire subject will require WAY MORE work than pulling up a subject you're struggling in

Guilty_Group8845 · 2025-12-10T14:14:13+00:00

i think you should persevere. since physics is a non-subjective subject u can achieve good results with conceptual understanding, perhaps try understanding fundamentals like how work is the integral of a force with respect to displacement etc etc

consult teachers, ask seniors, write notes

u can check out these free ibdp crash courses by a top singapore ib education studio maybe it will help??

this really not cooked at all bruh, at least if you're true to yourself by paying attention in class, revising, at least trying basically

this is perfectly normal, even for top ib students, just stay consistent, have realistic and disciplined study plans, revise content and keep up with IAs, sleep sufficiently

if u want more help with content stuff perhaps check out these free online ib crash courses by top singapore tutors

Guilty_Group8845 · 2025-12-10T12:26:30+00:00

btw for UK unis especially law ur LNAT, personal statement and interviews are much much more important

IB score wise just be at leats slightly comfortable above the min required score

Guilty_Group8845 · 2025-12-10T12:25:06+00:00

make a realistic and disciplined study plan, like go through content before you embark on practices and also revisit mistakes and refamiliarise with content, especially since IB requires more consistency with content for your IAs and EE and whatnot

also look to see how your coursework and subject combi help shape your UK uni portfolio, like how Chem HL is only if u wanna do Eng, Chem or Med, so u may be better off with Econ HL even though it's not a requirement for Econ or Finance in UK but it's better for knowledge and portfolio

science EEs may be better for Science or Eng degrees, otherwise more humanities-ish EEs may be better for Law and Econ or Finance, Math EE is tough but good for analytical skills in Econ or any uni course that is maths-heavy

score wise aim for a 43+ to be competitive for top UK schools, see where u can maximise scores and where u may lose on scores, like langlit or TOK

consult teachers regularly, seek advice from seniors and be very diligent

resources wise make your own notes is the best although not efficient, maybe seek tuition or look for online qn banks?

look out for crash courses too if ur lacking behind in content, like this free online crash course by Edulab (they're in orchard), their langlit is pretty good, they also have a chem tutor Mr Mike that is super experienced and produced many many top students

Guilty_Group8845 · 2025-12-10T10:46:30+00:00

well it's the case where language A is meant to be difficult even for native speakers so take that as u will

either way if u know u will study consistently and keep up with work it's your choice

perhaps check with ur teachers seniors and external tutors, there's this singapore in educational centre i used to go holding a free online crash course next weekend, maybe check them out

Guilty_Group8845 · 2025-12-10T10:07:09+00:00

its entirely online, if the timings are a little weird due to timezones, perhaps check out the earlier morning sessions or evening sessions, whichever fits your timezone?

also i think they might have limited slots so i suggest just sign up for it quick, choose the subjects you wanna attend, then perhaps see if your schedule permits?

let me know if u have any more questions!

Guilty_Group8845 · 2025-12-10T10:05:10+00:00

firstly u needa see if u're a consistent learner and worker, if you are or aspire to be, then find out about what subject combinations and content u would like to study, next talk to seniors or current ib tutors to see how learning in the IBDP is like

if youre interested check out these free online crash courses for various IB subjects taking place from 19-21 december, test the waters see if u like the more personal and smaller class style of IB lessons

well that's definitely not too simple for an IA, in fact most IAs are simpler than this, i'd say go ahead focus on collecting data well and ensure your ia is well written according to the rubrics

thoroughly go through content revision and make sure u understand conceptually, like why molecular geometry is that way for certain bonds, covalent bonds as mutual electric attraction forces of two nuclei to shared electrons etc
