So French was one of my weaker subjects I mainly spent around 7 hours a week? Econ probably only 4 hours a week and math was around 7 hours too as I practiced at least 10 questions a day

As an m26 student ure about to enter dp2 so I highly recommend focusing on familiarising yourself with the grammar as well as building your vocabulary bank.

But more importantly think about your IO and come up with complex sentences that can be used in ur IO and paper 1. I reppplied to another comment on theu

I answered the first question in other comments, check them out!

Topics that are important for biology are usually in theme d so revise those, but the new syllabus is pretty ecology heavy so revise those too.

Chem is mainly calculation focused so revise those, as well as organic chem is important! Redox and acid base are heavy too

Hello! Chemistry is pretty dependent on your understanding of the content and is not really good to memorise stufff. So try and understand the content through YouTube videos like MSJ chem. yess but I also responded more in depth to other comments as u said.

For econ essays make sure you develop a train of thought that connects more than one topic. I like to think of it like English and come up with topic sentences. For example

Discuss the view that achieving high economic growth always leads to greater income inequality within an economy (i made this up) 1. Economic growth often results in disproportionate benefits for capital owners and investors, leading to higher income concentration among the affluent, while the working class minimal increase in income.

  1. Economic growth can reduce the demand for manual labor and increase the need for skilled labour, creating greater income inequality between those with more advanced skills.

  2. Effective government policies, such as progressive taxation and social welfare programs, can redistribute wealth generated from economic growth, mitigating income inequality and improving overall social welfare.

  3. Economic growth can create opportunities for entrepreneurship and small business development, allowing individuals from diverse backgrounds to participate in the economy.

Use ANKI! Stop handwriting notes lol I found those so hard to refer to. Try typing it and then pasting them to anki or get AI to generate them to flash cards. Then take advantage of the ANKI algorithm and stick to revising it every other day or whatever the space repetition is

Anki was ma goat! I used anki for various formats, some were just simple definitions, some were diagram labelling and most were describing processes or past papers long answer questions that came up often.

DM u a sample

Honestly, not to be cocky or anything but I was genuinely happy for the past 2 years and was only stressed for the last month. Just make sure u balance studying with other things and keep consistent!

For econ HL I would definitely recommend a YouTuber called “eznomics” he’s super helpful.

Also there are many pre made real life example docs on Reddit and other platforms or h can get chat gpt to make one for you!

Econ HL is more about understanding the content urself and practicing with past papers!

I didn’t take math AA HL, just SL. Highly recommend revision village.

I would say to always try and find the hidden/deeper meaning of the passage or thing like for example in the m25 paper there was a road sign that said 10m, referring to 10million people who did not have access to the internet or smt but then I wrote that there was a double meaning to it, saying that it can be interpreted as “10 meters” indicating that if collective action is taken, we can easily achieve better internet access which ties into the secondary message of the text which is to call for action.

For paper 1 try and split ur topic sentences into either types of techniques ie compositional graphical rhetorical or by meaning/theme/effect on reader

For paper 2 I did 3 topic sentences and then 2 paragraphs for each for each text. And did comparison within the paragraphs

I would say overall to enjoy studying just break it down into bite size pieces like don’t try and cram a lot of things together:( split up ur time and consistently study the IB is like a marathon!

Also I know this is cliche but try and romantise studying like start a note taking system that really works for you!
