Preparing for this qualification · Preparación para esta cualificación
- Current first-assessment-2021 course: AA Paper 1 prohibits technology; Paper 2 allows it.
- External examination contributes 80%; the school-supervised mathematical exploration contributes 20%. SL papers are 40% each; HL Papers 1/2 are 30% each and Paper 3 is 20%.
- Public briefs establish structure, not full official learning objectives. School access to the current full guide, formula booklet and calculator policy is required to certify complete parity.
- Do not apply the revised 2029 marks, paper timing or exploration criteria to current cohorts.
Teaching coverage still needed · Cobertura docente aún necesaria
- Official question-bank boundaries, scheme alignment and all objective-level teaching coverage require the recorded review; no practice registry promotion.
- The authored diagnostic assessments are not full-length qualification mocks.
- The complete current IB guide, formula booklet, authenticated exploration criteria and full SL/HL objective codes are unavailable in the public archive.
