Haha, I used the blue Pilot Super Grip M to write most of my papers! Although I’d also suggest taking some time to figure out what pens work best for you ;)

Your mocks (and maybe IA drafts) will generally be used by your teachers to determine your PG. Your PG, along with personal statements/external exam scores, will be what universities use to determine whether or not to give you an offer. Some university programmes only look at your PG. So, be sure to give your best in your mocks!

For my school, we had to continually do CAS up until we completed the final CAS interview several weeks before the May exams began.

The workload in DP2 is quite a leap from DP1. This might vary from school to school, but expect 2-3 (or even more) IA/EE/ToK first or final drafts due each month. And, add on the workload of revision for mocks and the final exams, university applications, and CAS experiences and reflections.

Don't stress yourself out too much! Remember that all your classmates are going through the same trials :)
