Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about IB Math Internal Assessment video tutorials and resources

Are all IA video tutorials free to watch?

Yes! All our IB Math IA video lessons are completely free to watch. We believe quality IA guidance should be accessible to all students working on their Internal Assessment. You can watch them anytime, anywhere, and as many times as you need.

Do the videos cover all IB Math courses?

Yes! Our IB Math IA video guides are designed for students in all IB Mathematics courses: AA SL, AA HL, AI SL, and AI HL. The guidance covers general IA principles that apply to all courses, with specific examples for different mathematical levels and approaches.

How do I choose a good IA topic?

Our "Choosing Your IA Topic" video provides detailed guidance on selecting engaging topics that meet IB criteria. Look for topics that genuinely interest you, have sufficient mathematical depth for exploration, and allow for meaningful conclusions. Avoid overly complex or overly simple topics.

What assessment criteria are used for the IA?

The IA is assessed on five criteria: Presentation (organization and communication), Mathematical Communication (appropriate use of mathematical language), Personal Engagement (evidence of genuine interest), Reflection (critical thinking about results), and Use of Mathematics (relevant mathematical techniques). Each criterion has specific mark allocations detailed in our assessment guide.

How long should my IA be and when should I start?

Your IA should be 12-20 pages including diagrams and graphs. Start your IA early in your second year to allow time for research, data collection, analysis, writing, and revision. We recommend beginning at least 4-6 months before the submission deadline to avoid rushing and ensure quality work.
