Hi everyone, I was wondering if I could get your opinion on whether this topic is appropriate for a Math Exploration in HL. I am planning on analyzing Poker Odds, mainly by focusing on Pot and Card Odds. I will certainly be using conditional probability, Bayes Theorem, Factorials, Permutations, etc. I will basically give an invented scenario and, from there, I will find the probabilities of having a certain hand and of winning based on the opponent calling or betting. I will also use probability to determine if the odds of the hand are profitable to continue playing. So, what do you guys thin

Can I choose a movie (instead of a literary text) and analyze it for my higher level essay? Would it make any difference with regards to grading and requirements?

Hi fellow IB students! I just wanted to let you know that there is a really useful and cool tool for IB Physics. Me and my classmate (i.e. also an IB student) have developed a twitter and an instagram for IB Physics related things and we would really appreciate if you followed us! It is basically something you can access from your mobile device at any time (since most of us have twitter and/or instagram accounts) and is therefore very available and handy. We post summaries on IB Physics topics as pictures on instagram (both SL and HL topics) and useful tips/stuff that relate to IB Physics

I know that the essay is suppose to be Intro Thesis statement argument 1 argument 2 argument 3 (continue till you are happy with the number of arguments) conclusion However, my question is mainly centered around the body part, how should they be formatted? Should it be in terms of for example, Lets say I'm arguing that causes and effects of the Mexican-American war (I'm not doing this but just an example) Would for example I follow this way for each argument?

Hii My IA idea submission is due tomorrow and I have no idea what I really want to do, but came up with the idea of optimization using differential equations. I thought of reducing the surface area of packaging in different shapes like sphere and prisms, and calculate the minimum point (minima) through second order differentiation equation. I am also planning to then apply this to different real life examples like Toblerone triangle prism or something like that. Do you think this is too simple at the level of maths HL because it is just at the level of maths HL in the syllabus? I am

Are there any History books that focus solely on Mao's Hundred Flowers campaign? Most of the books that I have concentrate on a huge period of China's history, but I only really need to read about this one event.

These are my DP subjects: English A French/Spanish Geography Chemistry Math Computer Science As I would be taking the computer science major in University, I was planning to take CS HL, Chem HL, Math HL, and if possible English HL too. However I really want to be able to attend NUS (National University of Singapore) or ETH Zurich in Switzerland, and thus I'm still a bit confused on how I should select my DP subjects and their levels to satisfy their requirements and further enhance my admission possibility acceptance in the future. Please give me opinions on

Hey Guys! I need some help narrowing down my question on the salem witch trial! Here's the research question: How did the Salem witch trials reflect the Americans' point of view on gender and power in the 17th century in the US? I am worried it's a bit too broad and I may have some difficulty exploring every aspect of it. What would you guys recommend? Thank you

A friend of mine recently notified our IBC that he is worried that his paper is too similar to that of a sibling who had taken IB years before. He used his siblings paper to get an idea for a topic. he is worried they will run it through the system and find too many similarities and say he plagiarized. If you get caught for plagiarism is there a certain percentage that it must be for you to have consequences? i.e <15% Also, does the IB notify the college you plan on attending that you were caught for plagiarism?

Hi, I am struggling with getting all 3 marks with the reflective statement. My teacher keeps telling me that I should add more points, but I find it especially hard since theres a 300-400 words limit. Does anyone have advice on how to get all 3 marks while staying in the word limit?

Hi, I'm doing an IA on the volume and surface area of a torus, and I've already derived the equations needed. However, these equations and their derivations are widely found across the internet, so do you think it would turn up as plagiarisation? :0 Also, I'm thinking on optimising surface area with a fixed volume, meaning having the largest surface area with the smallest volume. How do you think I can do this, and whether the equations that I have just derived can play a part in this? Thanks a ton

I need some help deciding on my group 3. My school only offers History HL and Psychology HL, so I'm basically being forced to sacrifice one of my HL's to group 3. I'm interested in both, I like learning about history, and I also find Psychology fascinating. Ultimately, the deciding factor for my will be the IA. Which IA is easier? The IA for History HL or Psychology HL? Also workload and what you do in the class. Is there more work in History HL or Psychology HL? What kind of work

Hey Guys, I need your help. My school is forcing me to drop me from Maths Hl to Maths Sl as I my avg is less than 50%. These guys are putting all types of pressure to change my decision to SL. Is it possible. Guys I need your views. -
I need help choosing a Research Question for my History IA topic. So far I have brainstormed the following: - To what extent was Stalin's First 5 Year Plan successful? - To what extent was the Stalin's First 5 Year Plan motivated by political/economic/ideological reasons? ( I will choose one of the factors) - To what extent were the methods employed in Stalin's First 5 Year Plan successful in meeting its aims? - To what extent was collectivisation successful in increasing the industrial output/meeting the aims of Stalin's First 5 Year Plan? - To what extent was the Mar

I am going to start the ib next month and I wanted to know what previous knowledge I need to have of math and chemistry so I can start preparing myself in these two subjects before the start of the year. -
PLEASEEE HELP ME DECIDE If you've taken HL economics and/or HL chemistry (or know anyone that has), I need your opinion because I'm really indecisive. My other HL's are HL math analysis and approaches and HL biology, but I'm conflicted between HL chem or econs. I'm considering studying medicine (then specialising in either neuroscience or cardiology) or maybe finance. Is HL chemistry really as hard as everyone says it is? Could I still go into medicine without taking Chemistry HL? pls send help

Hello! I'll be starting the IB in August, which is very exciting, but there is one thing that has been on my mind lately: my subject choices. Our choices had to be made a few months ago. During that time of choosing I decided to go with 4 HLs. At first my intention was to take the three subjects which were English A Lang. and Lit. Biology Chemistry But, because history has always interested me, I decided to add it my list of HL subjects. A reason for my choice was that I had this idea that getting a good grade in HL History is easier due to the fact that Paper 3 in the
