#ib ia examples

[rxm3]

I did my math IA last year and had a lot of fun with doing stats, so here are some other relationships you could have fun analyzing:

Kudos to Hits (AO3)

Average run time of a “principle” actor in a film (should probably be narrowed down to one specific actor or one specific director)

Word count of a specific word in a text

How the number of instruments in a song might affect its popularity (of one specific artist)

I’d suggest doing an ANOVA test for an IA, not necessarily these examples, I did and it was a lot of fun. Albeit, I did have to teach it to myself, but still. I got all geeky and analyzed how and if different actors playing the Doctor and different executive producers affected the rating of the show, and which was most significant. At the end, my data concluded that there was no significant difference between the two but that they were both very affective, but it’s the study and procedure IB is looking at.

hey so i don't know you at all, but i saw on an old post that you did an IB eng lang+lit extended essay,,, and if you have ANY tips on choosing a topic for that i would literally appreciate it so much,, i have to choose my topic in the next 24 hours (procrastination </3) and i have vague ideas but no clue how i could structure them or what kinds of topics the IB prefers :/ literally any help, via dm or answering the ask, would be so so helpful ((( but no pressure ofc :] )))

omg hi babes, i'd be super happy to give my advice and i hope i'm not too late?

ok so you know the 3 categories i'm assuming? idk what your school is like but if you need more guidance on the ee in general, go to philpot's step by step guide

when you're told to pick something that interests you, DO THAT. you will spend MONTHS on this topic, researching and writing for hours upon hours, so you HAVE to be invested. even if you love love a topic, you might still struggle for a variety of reasons (my tips on this later on). regardless, you are on tumblr engaging in fandom and media for a reason. WHAT is that reason? what compels you? what themes, character dynamics, settings, motifs compel you? what shows, what books, what films? what about in lang and lit class? do you like ad analysis and the societal implications? do you prefer minute details that make a movie just so so good (e.g. lighting)? did you watch the dead poets society and you've been reading poetry aloud ever since?

the ib requires you to write about an "acclaimed" literary or non literary work, which gives you a LOT of choice. you could write about doctor who, for example.

i'll explain my process when i was picking my topic.

i have always liked greek mythology (like a LOT) and my favourite figure is akhilles. i decided i wanted to do something exploring his relationship with patroklos, but alas! i could not look at the iliad as it was not written in english originally, which didn't fit into either cat 1 or cat 2. so... why not the song of achilles? it's well known and acclaimed, plus would be more fitting for a dp level of literary analysis. but how to explore the characters? well... what else was i interested in?

what makes a character a hero?

this was the central question. i ended up changing the specifics of my question a million times which... don't do that. eventually, my question was (more or less), "how does miller conform to and subvert the characteristics of a hero through characterisation?" (that was not the question. i promise that the actual question was a million times better).

NOW. my extra note.

before you start researching and outlining, here is something i recommend you do before starting, based on my own issues. now, i did get a predicted (knock on wood) A, but after way too much deliberation.

make a list of your strengths and of your weaknesses. consider literary analysis vs diegetic and non diegetic sound analysis (idk if that's even what it's called but yk). consider time management skills. consider outlining skills. consider research skills. what do *you* need in terms of help and support from your supervisor? what do you need to do to help yourself? for example, i should have forced myself to pick a question from the start, before even starting research. this is an issue i have in other subjects too, and caused me a lot of grief for my history ia. i also asked my ee supervisor to help me come up with a realistic, step-by-step schedule bc i struggle assigning myself deadlines.

for the second part of your ask, structure is going to be super dependent based on your topic and category. i recommend reading examples similar to your topic (don't waste time reading ad analysis if you're doing poetry aha). i did mine with bg info on the classical view of heroes, then each bp was a different aspect (first conformity, then subversion). i have a friend who wrote hers on a feminist film and her bg was about feminist theory, with mentions of that time period, which then informed her fairly standard-structure analysis.

let me know if this helps in any way at all, and don't hesitate to reach out again if needed! i wish you the absolute best with the ee and dp more broadly :)

[vacant--alleyways]

hey i saw u are taking hl history of the americas and i was wondering what you chose to write your ia about? or just some guidance on how to choose a good topic, other ia advice, etc.

i’m choosing my question/topic soon and i feel like most ib studyblr blogs are taking global politics so i thought i’d ask

hey! I personally chose to write my ia on the interwar period for germany and Nazism (I won't get too specific jic). my teacher guided us pretty closely through the ia process, so I'm basically just going to regurgitate what he said lol. for choosing a topic, we were basically given a list of general history topics and told to pick one and use it as a basis to choose a topic of our own or use them as inspiration. I think I ended up choosing something about the emergence of an authoritarian state and narrowed it down to the one I was most interested in and the factors that were most prominent/interesting for me. my advice for choosing an ia topic would be to try and find a topic in history (it doesn't have to be something you studied in class) that you are genuinely interested in. it makes the ia process ten times easier because you'll actually want to do the research and everything. the scope of your topic also really matters. if it's too broad, you won't be able to really go in depth as there will be too much history to cover in the word count. but if it's too specific or niche, you'll struggle to reach the word count. so for example, you might not want to look at entire social movement, but the effects one prominent group within the movement had on a specific country, if that makes sense.

I hope this helped, I would also recommend looking for guidance in the ib subject guide, it's very long but helpful when it comes to knowing specifically what the ib is looking for with ias. ib history is definitely a difficult subject sometimes, good luck with your ia ♡

The TOK Virus is E V E R Y W H E R E ! ! !

Everybody hide. Find your mask, and take cover. The TOK virus is spreading.

Who would have known that in only five short months I would go from having no idea what Theory of Knowledge even was, to applying it in my everyday life? Truthfully, I don't think there is a day that goes by where I don't make connections to this course. Whenever I'm in a situation where someone mentions anything along the lines of free will, certainty, or knowledge, my brain goes “Oh! TOK!!!” It really has just given me a completely different outlook on life. I think that the biggest TOK virus that I caught was the virus of overanalyzing. In many situations, where the average person wouldn't bat an eye, I find myself asking “how do we know this” or “how much of this really matters”. Half of the time, I say it as a joke because the answer to those questions doesn't really change my perspective on life, but it has definitely altered my interpretation. Similarly, another great thing that has come out of the TOK virus is the new set of comedy! After taking IB history last year, you can say that my friends and I (Roan, Jasmine, and Simone) caught the “IB history virus” because everything could become a joke. Someone talks about being hungry? Well, at least you weren't in Communist China under Mao Zedong during the Great Leap Forward! Stuff like that. Now, TOK has offered that same opportunity. And let me tell you, it's hilarious! One of our non-TOK friends will comment “Oh wow, I did really well on that chemistry quiz”... are yo sure? How do you know for certain? Or do you just think that you know for certain? I can't count the number of times that one of us four has finished off a text in the group chat with “#TOK”. I was actually able to find a few perfect examples, take a look at these texts:

Logical fallacies!!

Does anything matter????

A classic...and maybe a bit of a false dilemma?

(permission was received from members of this group chat)

Not just that, in the past few days since we learned about logical fallacies, I've been seeing them EVERYWHERE. It's like a whole new world. It got me thinking back on it, and I'm probably 85% certain that I used confirmation bias or the cherry-picking fallacy in my History IA. I don't necessarily think that it was on purpose, but it definitely happened. Essentially, this class and the TOK virus have just allowed me to learn a lot about myself. There were a lot of things that I probably would have never thought about or never been forced to develop an opinion on if it weren't for the TOK virus. In fact, I'm very fascinated by the power that one course can have on someone's thinking. I've even found myself using TOK to justify my actions in my everyday life. Don't worry, I'm not robbing banks or anything and saying “It wasn't my fault we don't have free will”...that would be, concerning, to say the least. I use it in a way to make me feel better, “Oh, I did bad on that test, it's okay because we don't have free will, so everything will turn out how it's supposed to turn out”. Whether I believe that or not is a different story, but hey! Makes life more interesting!!

[latte-studies-sometimes]

Hello Latte ! :) I am currently a student in ICSE and will be switching to IB next year. But the problem is I'm quiet literally unaware of most things about this curriculum. I know about TOK , EE and CAS and other general stuff. I was curious as to how the exams are conducted and how are they graded. I am having trouble understanding how my marks will get converted into points 1 to 7. Could you help me out ?

Hello! So the exams are still out of a lot of marks. Teachers are supposed to show you criteria to get a desired grade for each subject. The grades (1 to 7) depends on the percentage. Say for example, a test is out of 25 marks. If you get over a certain percentage ex: 55%, then you get a 5. (I'm using an example from some of my business tests)

Getting a 5 is easy if you put in a regular amount of work, but getting a 6 and a 7 is pretty hard and only gets harder since you have the entire syllabus to cover. Especially if you have subjects which give you essay questions on the test, because then a 7 depends on the quality of your essay.

I'm not sure if you know about the Internal Assessments so I'll just mention them here. IAs do contribute to the overall grade in the subject (most IAs are 20% of the final grade). My only advice for those is: don't procrastinate on those, get it done on time. Each subject also has at least 2 papers, sometimes 3 papers. Languages will have 4 (Reading, writing, speaking, listening). These papers also contribute a certain percentage to your final IB score.

As for how the exams are conducted, I think that depends on how your school decides to conduct it. But it will be rigid. A lot of people in my school focused on their DP year 1 exams because those are the grades many people apply to uni with (they're only the predicted grades, not the final).

Good luck for the IB and good on you that you did your research! It's the world's toughest high school programme for a reason :')

How IB Tutoring Prepares Students for Top Global Universities

How IB Tutoring Prepares Students for Top Global Universities

The International Baccalaureate (IB) is not just another high school diploma—it’s a launchpad to the world’s best universities. Its holistic and rigorous structure is designed to develop students into well-rounded, critical thinkers who can thrive in competitive academic environments.

But excelling in IB—and leveraging it for university admissions—requires more than just classroom learning. That’s why more students and families are turning to IB tutoring to help bridge the gap between strong school performance and successful global university admissions.

In this article, we explore how platforms like CourseLeap’s IB Tutoring help students go beyond subject success and prepare strategically for top-tier universities worldwide.

1. Mastery of Academic Skills Needed for University

University success requires a set of core academic skills:

Independent research

Structured academic writing

Time and stress management

Analytical and critical thinking

Self-directed learning

The IB promotes these through its curriculum, but IB tutoring reinforces and deepens them, especially through one-on-one mentorship.

At CourseLeap, tutors work with students on:

Extended Essay (EE) research and writing

High-level subject exploration in HL courses

Academic presentation skills through TOK

Structuring arguments and refining thought processes

These are directly transferable to first-year university assignments, seminars, and independent study.

2. Strong IB Scores Matter in Competitive Admissions

Universities like Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard, Stanford, and many others give great weight to IB predicted and final scores.

Examples:

Oxford typically requires a 38–40 score, with 6s and 7s in HL subjects.

Ivy League universities value strong EE and TOK performance.

Top Canadian and Singaporean universities use predicted IB scores directly for admission offers.

IB tutoring helps students:

Strategically plan their subject combinations

Improve performance in HL subjects (which carry more weight)

Score higher in IA, EE, and TOK, all of which boost final points

Avoid common mistakes that lead to lost marks

Tutors also help interpret and target subject-specific grade boundaries, improving student chances of meeting offer conditions.

3. Subject Guidance Aligned with University Goals

Choosing the right subjects in IB is crucial—not just for performance, but for aligning with future degree programs.

Tutors help students:

Choose between Math AA and AI based on STEM or non-STEM pathways

Understand if HL Chemistry is needed for Medicine

Align Business Management or Economics HL with finance or economics majors

Ensure their Extended Essay supports intended university interests

This alignment not only strengthens applications—it also demonstrates clarity of purpose to admissions committees.

4. IB Core Components Build Strong Applications

The EE, TOK, and CAS are not just IB formalities—they are often referenced in university applications, interviews, and personal statements.

IB tutors provide:

EE mentorship that builds research and writing portfolios

TOK support that develops philosophical reasoning and reflection

CAS planning to help students turn experiences into essays

At CourseLeap, many students use their EE or CAS project to:

Write personal statements

Apply for scholarships

Prepare for Oxbridge and Ivy League interviews

5. Admissions & Interview Preparation

Many IB tutoring programs (including CourseLeap) now offer university readiness coaching, including:

Personal statement brainstorming and editing

Subject-specific interview coaching (esp. for Oxbridge/UK)

Essay-based admissions test practice (e.g., TSA, BMAT, LNAT)

Academic writing and communication coaching

This integrated support ensures IB students present themselves with clarity, confidence, and competitiveness.

6. Confidence in Global Academic Environments

Studying abroad is not just about grades—it’s about confidence. IB tutoring helps students:

Practice university-style seminars and discussions

Learn independent learning strategies

Build time management systems for heavy workloads

Develop soft skills like communication, initiative, and leadership

These are exactly the traits admissions officers and professors look for in international students.

Why CourseLeap is the Top Choice for University-Ready IB Tutoring

CourseLeap’s IB Tutoring is designed with university preparation in mind. What sets them apart?

Navigating the Rigors of IB: The Rise of Expert Tutors in Gurgaon

Gurgaon, a rapidly developing hub known for its international schools and global outlook, has witnessed a significant increase in demand for specialized International Baccalaureate (IB) tutoring. As more students opt for the challenging IB Diploma Programme (IBDP), Middle Years Programme (MYP), and Primary Years Programme (PYP), the need for tailored academic support has become paramount.
