master135 Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 (edited) Which year? TZ1 isn't enough when there have so far been 5 years of timezoned papers. (M04 was when they introduced TZ1 and TZ2 if I remember correctly)I was referring to the May 2009 TZ HL Maths papers (Discrete Maths, but since its the core that I'm concerned about I dont think it matters which) I am certain that you can download files from this thread and if you download the file in this post, you can download all the boundaries. But if you can't here's a snapshot of the boundaries you want:Yes I already know that but according to the discussion that is from timezone two. The timezone one however was supposed to be much harder.For Paper 1 and 2 HL TZ1 check the document I posted previously (containing boundaries for Series) because Paper 1 and 2 have the same boundaries no matter what the option is.Discrete TZ1 Overall:Mark range: 1: 0 - 13 2: 14 - 26 3: 27 - 36 4: 37 - 48 5: 49 - 60 6: 61 - 72 7:73 - 100 Paper 3 : Mark range: 1: 0 - 7 2: 8 - 15 3: 16 - 23 4: 24 - 30 5:31 - 36 6:37 - 43 7:44 - 60 Edited October 29, 2009 by master135 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peachez Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Basically you need to make sure that you have done at least 50% of the paper correctly, then you will pass with no problem! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

iremmeber Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 (edited) Hello, 3 questions -1) Can you confirm the scaling factors for HL math in shown in the grade boundaries? Does P3 really get more weighting than P2/P1?2) Can anyone shed some light on scaling for the Sequences and Series option for HL Math?3) What about HL Computer Science for 08/09?Thanks very much.Edit: nevermind the first one Edited May 21, 2010 by iremmeber Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm not interested in passing, I want to get a 7!Usually it is approximately 80% for a 7. Check the latest mark boundaries (2009 for now) to make sure though. They may change from year to year for 1-2 points/percent, but in general it is 80% for a 7. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pimms Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 any idea of when the grade boundaries for 2010 will be made available? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetnsimple786 Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 I think you take your score for each component and multiply it by the appropriate scaling factor and then add the scaled numbers together to get the number in the final column.

x___x Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 (edited) Yeah, our IB coordinator has the component grades, but she didn't give them to us yet. So probably your IBC has them too. Edited July 19, 2010 by x___x Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the boundaries for each year are actually quite close, only a few percent difference; so you might want to refer to the Nov 10 boundaries which would be out next year or the May 10 boundaries.
