Hi, I am in despirate need of help. My maths teacher has said that she set the maths IA draft deadline for the end of the school term nd has said that of we do not meet this deadline anything we hand in later is considered a final draft and she will give no feedback on what we submit. Is this allowed? I wasn't aware of the deadline and have also had Philospohy, Biology and ESS IA's at the same time as well as the EE draft to be handed in and the TOK exhibition AND mocks the second week back of september. Any feedback would mean the world to me!!!!!

I want to switch from Spanish SL to chinese AB intio but its almost been a year. My ib coordinator says that I cannot switch because I am heritage of china although I cannot speak, read or write chinese??? Also she says that there needs to be 150 hours of teaching meet before the end of the year. To my knowledge I heard you can take an online course on top of the course at school to fulfil the 150 teaching hours. I don't see why I cannot take AB Initio chinese. Could someone please clarify about the heritage thing thanks.

I'm really struggling to figure out an EE topic for this subject. I wanted to do my EE on greek mythology but all the topics I come up with are too broad and I can't seem to narrow it down. Plus, I'm still a bit confused about the requirements for the EE in this subject because it's not offered at my school, I have a mentor who has taught some Greek but they aren't really around much. I'm worried that I might do the EE entirely wrong and I'm still not entirely sure if i needed to know greek or latin in order to actually do this subject. I just really need some help in narrowing it down and if

Hi, my name is Kylie and this year has been really stressful. I transferred into the IB program 4 weeks late so the first quarter was me doing makeup work while keeping up with the work given. The first quarter is ending in two days and my grades are very bad, ending with 2As, 5bs and 1 C in HL BIO. I’m scared I’ve made a mistake and I won’t get into a good college since this is a big difference from my previous grades:( I did go to a very prestigious vet camp at my local university and work at another very selective program at the museum down town, so I’m hoping those extra curricular‘s will

Hey guys, So Im a Math SL student and my IA is going to be about the Birthday Paradox. I already have the stuff in mind about what I am going to do but I want to add more, so please add any suggestions you guys have. What I have so far: Discussing the Birthday Paradox itself and the math that is behind it. To compare the theoretical way of finding two people with the same birthday to a real example which is done by a survey. See how many people it would take to find 3 people and 4 people with the same birthday. Thank you so much.

Hi, so at my school we just started the EE and we need to decide on a topic by next week. I really want to do a literature EE regarding Edgar Allan Poe's works, but apart from that I'm not sure what to focus on (I don't want to talk about all of them, just a few). Do literature EEs typically compare two subjects or ideas, or are they formatted a different way? And do you think an EE on some of Poe's writings has potential to be a good topic, or should I scrap that idea?

Hey there!! I'm in pre-Ib now. Need to choose subjects for IB. I'll say directly, I'm pretty good at Math, but I need to decide if I take Math SL or Math on Studies. The problem is that I'm also taking Chemistry HL and English A SL(and I'm not a native English speaker) So I'm afraid that it would be too hard. And also I don't really need math in the future. I wan to go for a jurist or marketing manager. They don't need math on SL, to take you to the university for above said courses, right? Looking forward your advices

Hello! I'm in pre-IB now. Before 1 March I need to choose my subjects for the next year. I thinking of: English A SL; German B SL; Psychology HL; Business and Management HL; Chemistry HL and Math SL. I'm not a native English speaker, that's why I'm afraid that English A would be too hard for me. I'm also not sure about chemistry (though I'm good at it now, but it's pre-IB, so I think it doesn't count) I was thinking to take Math on Studies instead of SL(to make my life easier), but someone told me that it would be better to take SL, because a lot of universities look at your math level, even

Hi IBSurvival Members, I am writing an extended essay in economics, on the proposed deregulation of universities in Australia, allowing them to set their own fees. The only issue is that it it hasn't been approved in parliament yet, although I am pretty sure it will be. Since it has not happened yet, and my extended essay will be based on the consequences of the legislation passing, do you think that I should stick with this topic, or will it be too hypothetical in nature and is not advisable? P.S: I am pretty confident about the topic and the primary/secondary sources for this

I'm writing my EE right now and there are things which I want to include which come from my own knowledge (basically just stuff that people know, for example "WWII started in 1939"). Can I include it in the essay without a reference? Because I didn't get it from a book or anything, it's just something I already knew. Thank you!

Hey guys, so I've roughly chosen my research question to be: Calculating the variation of drag coefficient of a badminton shuttlecock during the period of one parabolic trajectory. Do you guys think it's a viable question? And if so, can you please advise me on some approaches to take that would be a good idea? I have one idea: Take a video of a trajectory and plug the video into Logger Pro 3 to find the varying velocities. Do you guys think that data would be sufficient for the calculation of the drag coefficients? Please help, I want to get started with my essay as soon as possible
