It's more useful than it looks. There's all kinds of helpful IB sample documents for so many subjects.I never judged the site, and I apologise if you find that I have offended you. Even though you aren't marked for how the cover page looks like, it still might affect the examiner's overview of your work in general, which is sad, but it does happen. The first article seemed to have a pretty decent cover page, however the other two were awful and even wrong. Our teacher is very strict about what should be and not be in the cover page. (She is also both an EE and Economics IB-examiner.) I can send you how my cover page looks like if you wish so.So far I have gotten full marks on my IA's in Economics, and my teacher gets upgraded by the moderator almost every year. // Adam Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fяαи Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 You should look at the guides they have over here too, just in case you miss things out in the samples. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omar Karawia Posted November 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 all these topics are HL??? ,,, I want a SL article :/ Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luka Petrovic Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Sounds more you're looking to copy one no offence. just replace the HL theories with some SL one when you read the sample in your head. They are pretty straight forward, just cover all your bases, in regards to your rubric. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fяαи Posted November 5, 2012 Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 Just follow up with topics you have to do. Don't focus on the HL ones. You know your SL topics. Do those. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChocolateDrop Posted November 5, 2012 Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 Also don't forget that the article you do has to be pretty recent. Something like no more than three months older than when you start your IA.As you probably know there is hardly any difference between Economics HL and SL, with the exception of HL having theory of the firm and a few other extra topics. So essentially an HL IA would just be a really good SL IA. And according to my teacher, if you are an SL student and happen to find an article with HL topics you'd probably have to teach yourself the HL material. And still have correct economic theory for maximum marks.The requirements for HL and SL are the same.Economics IA criteria; http://www.peteranthony.org/economics/IA%20Economics.pdf 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
