Preparing for this qualification · ⁨Préparation à cette qualification⁩

  • SL: source Paper 1 60 min 30%, essay Paper 2 90 min 45%, investigation 25%. HL: Paper 1 60 min 20%, Paper 2 90 min 25%, regional Paper 3 150 min 35%, investigation 20%.
  • School selects one of five prescribed subjects (both cases), two of twelve world-history topics; HL selects one region with three sections. No selection is silently implied. Future 2028 focused/thematic studies are a different course.

Teaching coverage still needed · ⁨Couverture pédagogique encore nécessaire⁩

  • School-selected prescribed subject, both cases, two world topics and HL regional sections need factual teaching and reviewed papers; future course needs its own complete package.
  • Reviewed runtime bank remains unavailable; no practice registry promotion.
