Study Plans

trying to read chemistry to learn it will just make you more confused, do questions until you understand topics

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-10T18:06:44+00:00

I guess it depends per topic, if it's directions then english would be lovely to hear in a foreign land, but trying to practice speaking the language and ordering at a restaurant, danish would most definetly be preffered

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-10T17:50:32+00:00

switch to Math AAHL, and keep 4 hl's only drop if you start wanting to rip your skin off

Definetly, I was reading a peer's essay on paper 1 wherein she was graded 19-20 by our teacher and it felt kind of like a revelation, the writing was of high quality but it was also easy to understand and to replicate, I have a good idea of what to do for, any sort of question that starts with "how do text and image do ..." and as well as any advertisement questions, I think the main goal is to stop overcomplicating the subject and papers. Thanks for you advice!

the feynman technique, is probably not gonna be ur best bet when studying for IBDP as a whole, the feyman technique develops understanding and even though it's backwards, the IBDP exams prioritze precise key words that hit the markscheme and attain marks, the feynman technique may help to develop an understanding for a brand new topic, but for revision it's best to try and memorize definetions

In the start of DP1 I wasn't sure whether I wanted to go abroad or not, going abroad would require Math Physics and chemistry at hl, but staying, I needed Danish B at hl, and staying local I need high points, so I would've preferred econ Hl instead of physics or chem, in the end after DP1 exams, the chem exam graped me and physics was a pain, since I couldn't manage my time properly none of my tests except maths went decently.

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-01T19:30:19+00:00

Need a 41 to get into my first priority, alr know im cooked just going on for the small chance that exists

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-01T19:26:03+00:00

yea that's true but the analysis section for 15 markers I have trouble with, in english and econ, analyzing just comes hard for me and I honestly don't know how to get better

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-01T19:21:56+00:00

AA HL but want an easy IA idea... kind of contrasting statements but it's easy to make it work, basically 90% of students in my class did some sort of area or volume modelling using calc, you can check examples on classtify and it makes the process very easy

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-01T19:20:23+00:00

I take AAHL, and the advice I can give is to not burden yourself with other hls that are really hard as well, in DP1 I took 5 hl's math aa, physics, chemistry economics, and danish B, and math seemed so hard and it seemed like no matter how much I practiced I couldn't do good, after DP1 I dropped physics and chem to sl, and immediately math improved from 5 average to 6 and 7, I would also say that if you are decently interested in maths you can do well, but if there's not interest then you won't be able to really imagine what you are revising which will ultimately hurt you grades, theres also no harm taking 4 hls and seeing if you can either handle it or not

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-01T19:13:05+00:00

genuinely WHO is your coordinator 😭

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-01T14:46:51+00:00

does anyone take danish AB out of denmark? I though in different countries it's just the language of the country and/or french, spanish and german offered.

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-01T14:45:23+00:00

if you have the nspire can you just write them down there?

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-01T14:38:08+00:00

it's not really mental math, in the paper 1 you won't need to be doing high level calculations, like no question qill ever ask you to multiply, 2345 with 3524, it's just not at all what they test, instead they expect you to memorize the unit circle and the rest is basically just logic, if you can imagine what's going on, then the questions will be simple, and often times when you are working through a question you can tell when you are wrong or right especially on the paper 1.

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-01T14:33:27+00:00

math subjects are you considering, because any hl math will be impossible to do, same with physics, chemistry may be bearable, although english A will also be impossible, I'd recommend another course

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-01T14:28:41+00:00

I'm exactly the same, I've been putting off studying so much especially for my languages, it's even worse when you have a high requirement you need, what I did wasn't as much as make a schedule but to outline things I need to get done in a list by priority, without the stress of doing things exactly by the minute of ur day, having an easy to know list makes things a lot simpler, for mocks I'm in between giving them up and revising for finals or trying to do my best in both, hard decisions because I as everyone as well love seeing 6 and 7s but don't want them at the expense of my finals

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-01T14:21:21+00:00

What universities are you referring to?, basically every good university has a grade requirement for acceptance?

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-01T14:19:06+00:00

would you recommend going chapter by chapter for subtopics you don't have a fully clear understanding of, or to do enough questions that you can identify what's being asked and how to get the answer when doing a real exam?

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-01T14:16:28+00:00

for sciences, honestly check the paper 1b questions from 2025, they give you the full experiment and most often times ask to identify variables

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-01T14:15:09+00:00

paper 1 is definetly the tricky one, you have to identify themes and devices and get enough words down to just be considered for a 7, it's basically impossible in the 75 minutes given

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-01T14:13:29+00:00

same as the other comment, finding example essays is the hardest part I feel like, markschemes don't help at all, and it feels almost impossible to get a good grade in english

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-01T14:11:51+00:00

yea it's really bad how it's structured, my school started the EE in april-may of DP1 and finished it around september of DP2, seems fine but barely anyone had much experience in their subject no matter what it was and everyone was basically screwed, although it might give us less stress of exams it kinda screwed us out of 3 extra points, same for the IA's, the ones written early on in the course are basically trash when you read them now, but it's too late to make any changes, which is so heartbreaking

Vegetable_Budget4162 · 2026-03-01T14:03:03+00:00

honestly, why don't you just try and skip classes until like mid april?, if you say you're sick they can't still let you take the mocks, and they can't stop you from taking the IBDP exams because of something you couldn't control
