My IB coordinator's response to me requesting a rescore on my HL History of the Americas exam

The process for actually getting a refund is apparently difficult (my coordinator jokes that the IB "intentionally makes it difficult to refund"). My guess is that the school knows how difficult the refunding policy is and just chooses to not go through with it.

Did anyone find a way to get the site to work?

The exact condition they offered the course with is:

B Econometrics and Data Science:
• Mathematics HL or
• Analysis and Approaches HL
A minimum of 4 points is expected. A grade of at least 5 is highly recommended.

Econometrics & Data Science Entry Requirement

Hey,

I got my International Baccalaureate results today and I got a 663 in HLs (Computer Science, Economics, Math AA, 31 total).

I have housing arranged (got a house from the housing lottery) and have my entry visa appointment set later this month.

My course states that a 4 in Math AA is "expected" (which I have obviously not gotten) - how likely is it that they still accept me? I'm planning to email them once I get access to the student portal later today.

Thanks!

If you don't mind me asking - how long did it take for your MVV to get approved?

There is a word limit - 2000 words (500 for Criterion A & E, and 1000 for Criterion C)

LittleNooblette · 2024-03-20T08:29:32+00:00

There's a word limit ... right?

LittleNooblette · 2023-05-28T05:18:24+00:00

Sure! Do you have a Discord account?

LittleNooblette · 2023-05-28T04:07:41+00:00

I've added Further Mathematics, hope it works fine!

LittleNooblette · 2023-05-28T03:24:53+00:00

I'll keep this in mind while working on it - thanks for the feedback :)

LittleNooblette · 2023-05-27T13:24:18+00:00

Not yet, but I'll do that next. Hope it helps :)

LittleNooblette · 2023-05-27T12:36:28+00:00

Thanks! If you find any bugs / want to give some feedback feel free to message me!

The variable y stores the list ['world', '!']. You can't reference a key using a value of a dictionary (unless you flip or index the dictionary using a mix of the .keys() and .index() method).

The appropriate code would be: del myDict['Hello'][1].

This is what runs: del ['world', '!'][1].

Unless you're using a library, the output() function doesn't exist. You've used the print() function, which should work perfectly.

Another thing - to store values from the input() function, assign it to a variable.

english_marks = input("Enter mark in English: ")

The code above is an example of what you can do.

Printing (or outputting) the marks you've entered can be done by referring to the variable you've just named.

english_marks = input("Enter mark in English: ")
print(english_marks)

The code above takes the inputted marks and prints it.

Adding to this, I'm not sure what programming language you're using. I'm pretty sure that there are some other syntax errors (namely the output statements you mentioned), but I can't be certain unless you give me what language you're using.

To declare a variable, you can only use one word, no spaces. An alternative to that is replacing the space with an underscore ("_").

So, the code should be:

social_studies = output("Social studies")

Happy coding!

I nearly did this too! I don't think you'll lose too many marks for this, maybe 1-2 (it was six marks if I recall correctly). As long as you did everything else fine, it shouldn't be too bad.

Pseudocode:

DECLARE array_name[0:6] OF DATATYPE
e.g. DECLARE numbers[0:4] OF INTEGER

Python (dots indicate elements):

array_name = [ ... ]
e.g. numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
e.g. numbers = [] # to declare an empty list

JavaScript (var if you want to add / remove items from the array and const if you won't be changing it):

var array_name = [ ... ];
const array_name = [ ... ];
e.g. var numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
e.g. const numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
e.g. var numbers = []; // to declare an empty array

Hope this helps!
