I think it's neater to just have one big revision links thread here instead of different threads in the invididual subject forums.

..::[ General ]::..
IBGuides - A website with useful links for all subjects - useful for exam revision
Vaughan IB Notes A huge collection of notes for IB across an area of subjects.
IB Revision Notes - A lot of notes for IB divided into subjects and topics
IB on Wikibook Revision notes, revision links etc.
ibscrewed.net Resources Helpful links for revision
S-Cool Revision - This is a General site to help you out in whatever you need, is for A-Levels but would definitley be helpful to any IB student.
HSHS Website Experimental Sciences Internal Assessment: A good guide on how to write them
Online Literature It 's a great resource, and has web versions of hundreds of different literary classics, all of Shakespeare's plays, Wilde's, Greek playwrights, etc. The best feature, is that there is a quote feature, where you can type one word, and it will bring up every quote containing it, from whatever piece you are studying. I use it a lot when I am writing about symbolism and motifs, because you can type in something like "blood", and you'll get 20 quotes about it from Macbeth.
Find Articles A place to search for news & reference articles. Good for EE research.
Scirus A search engine for scientific information only. Really good for EEs on the sciences and psychology.
IB Years A blog with links to IB resources. Search for tags: English Oral Commentary Resources, History research, CAS, EE, TOK info, external links etc.
Course Notes Mainly AP notes (a very American site smile.gif ) for all subjects
IB Notes A wiki of notes for IB subjects. Chemistry and Physics have most complete notes here, and less complete notes for other subjects. Worth checking out.

It is amazing what you can sometimes find by using google :lol:

I googled Krebs Cycle IB Biology and found the Oxford Study Guide for IB Biology SL and HL online at IB Biology Reference Index. It's free, in .pdf and is divided by chapter and pages. Everything is included from each revision page to exam questions, answers, tips on how to write this and that.

I have two good links for psychology.

Miss B (IB HL)

It's a blog (from a teacher I think) which has posts around most perspectives with notes, links, and etc. Very good too look at. I found myself a great deal of links with notes and even powerpoint presentations that were useful.

Yuki IB Psychology

Also a blog with discussion, notes and etc.

For those who aren't aware of it yet, they're allowing people to download sample examination papers on www.ibo.org. It's right on the home page, in the announcements section. Sadly, they only have a few (like no physics, psychology, or geography whatsoever), but it might be worth a look. :wub:

I've been collecting various of links that our teacher sometimes recommend throughout the course (usually biology and psychology........) and I figured I might as well share them here as well :P Most of them are not IB notes but more subject notes. You can learn a great deal from them and work well for revision or if you just don't understand something in particular:) Just remember the syllabus and what you're after so :P

Psychology

Allpsych.com - this website I recommend a lot! It has a lot of information and notes on various of perspectives for example biological, learning, psychodynamic, cognitive, social, humanistic and etc. Great if you need some quick revision.

Personalityresearch.org - great website with different approaches and theories on personality

Holah.co.uk - This is for AS Psychology but works perfectly well for IB psychology. Contains a lot of information about hte core studies in different perspectives, themes (determinism/free will etc) as well as practical experimental information.

Biology

DNA-interactive - this is an educational website that covers the basic of dna in a simple way. It's VERY interactive.

DNA From The Beginning - need help in genetics? Then visit this. It goes through molecular and classical genetics in a simple way and includes animations as well.

DNA-RNA-Protein - this is actually from the nobel prize section but it's also very useful if you need help in genetics or just want to revise. Has both basic and advance information.

CellsAlive.com - pretty much cell biology. With a lot of animations/videos.

Becoming Human - If you do the evolution option, then this one is very useful.

Biosphere - an AP biology website but has a nice review section.

BiologyMad - A level biology with also useful notes.

I don't know if anyone's seen this website:

www.ibpsychology.com I think it's still in production, but it's got some good resources on the extended essay for psych, as well as info and links to all the perspectives.

Also:

http://www.findarticles.com/ great for EE research :P

http://www.scirus.com/srsapp/ - a search engine for scientific information only... really good for EEs on the sciences and psych

http://ibpsychology.blogspot.com/ has some interesting resources, blog entries on the perspectives as well as some sample questions... haven't looked through it thoroughly yet though

http://www.alleydog.com/ - good glossary of terms on psychology

http://www.yourdictionary.com/diction5a.html#philosophy - list of philosophy dictionaries

http://cw.infodiv.unimelb.edu.au/history/research_history/ - my sister did her EE on History and used this site heaps and found it helpful... it's not IB thou, but it's about how to research history

I was browsing my school's intranet and found this link:

http://www.psychwww.com/books/interp/toc.htm - A free, online translation of Freud's interpretation of dreams.

That's awesome, because it's my EE topic!!! YAYYYY. It's really good, for anyone that's doing their extendeds on it...

Oh and the website is good too:

http://www.psychwww.com/

And there's a full online psychology textbook:

http://www.intropsych.com/index.html

It isn't IB psych though, I think these links are most useful for EEs
