Guest NapWar Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 Hey guys, I'm generally great with math, understanding it and performing well in my exams. I only ever lose points from carelessness I guess, and usually expect perfect scores. I also got an A* in my IGCSEs. The problem is, a lot of people say that you'd have to have done IGCSE Further Mathematics well to know if you're at the level required for Mathematics HL. Neither my school nor any in the area (as far as I'm aware of) offered this subject, and I'm not familiar with it at all. So my question is, as someone who's only done IGCSE Mathematics (and is good at it), how can I be sure if I can cope with the level of difficulty taught in IB Mathematics HL?

Dax Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 I've done IGCSE Math Extended 0580 and it's all right! But yeah, an A or an A* is a minimum one should have in IG's to take Math HL. You'll still need to put in more practice to understand everything but it shouldn't really be a problem Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
