IB TIPS ★ How I got 42 Points ★

[@motionsofmyth8283]

Probably to get a 42, I should be writing my EE rather than watching how people get high scores in IB... Congrats tho

[@marcolee.]

omg I also need to writte mine :((((

[@kindredlucumita9385]

And how did it go? :)

[@marcolee.]

still not very far...

[@lucyj5550]

OH MY GOD SAME

[@MMmm-bg9li]

Nah, I got a 43 predicted and I’ve been procrastinating A LOT.

[@DudettsUnite]

"pick a good ib school" LOLOL there is one school in this region that does ib. it's, like, sad... there are 7 diploma students in my grade, we get almost NO choice in what classes we take it you're in diploma, and the rest of the kids in our school think we're snobby:(

[@stefaniecallista5027]

oh no that sucks..

[@luccablack]

+Rosalind Franklin Hey you ahah seems like we are in the same sitch - yangon, myanmar also just has one IB school. But cheers!

[@hologoddess6855]

SAME I FEEL SO MUCH (a year late but here nonetheless)

[@sofiathetortilla]

[@aliazln]

I can relate so much ahaha

[@TheFritzBR]

Starting tomorrow! Good luck for me for the next 2 years

[@Sophieblogable]

Omg 😭😭 I'm starting next week!

[@nafahalwa6292]

lol im starting in 3 days................. :')

[@yusufylmaz7194]

what happened

[@simonbranner1678]

Being beautiful + being intelligent (which is credible seeing as you got 42 points) is a pretty lucky thing. Embrace it. 3 months into the IB got me like #WhereIsTheBleach

[@genevelau936]

Okay, can I just say, I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS VIDEO. I was procrastinating my IA (lol the irony) and I looked up IB program on KZbin and found this video. From the moment you started talking, I could just tell how well-educated you are and what a difference it makes in your character as compared to other gurus on KZbin. I try really hard to be optimistic about the IB, but honestly only IB people understand the pain and the toll it has on your life. I'm so glad I watched this though, it definitely encouraged me to keep pushing and take initiative for my education. I'm nearing the end of year 11 and watching the seniors take their exams is just so frightening, knowing that I'm next. Please post more tips about the IB and other little life hacks, etc. There's not enough of them on the internet and we probably have the biggest network!!

[@joliejanine]

+Geneve Lau Wow thank you so much! Your positive feedback really means the world :) I will definitely think about other IB videos I can make- any ideas? Good luck with the IB! ;) xx

[@genevelau936]

+Jolie Janine How to time manage (like for the EE), presentation tips, exam study tips!

[@mariabelenvargassanmartin2314]

omg same i am procastinating my Math IA Lmao

[@mylifemyworldme]

you have no idea how thankful I am for this video :D !!! You have changed my attitude towards the IB!

[@joliejanine]

+Camila Ron Wow that is amazing! :O

[@rylieallsmiles]

This video made me so happy. I started following you because you are vegan and then I saw this video and I was so excited to know that you have gone through what I am (attempting) right now! These are great tips :)

[@joliejanine]

+Rylie Sollars Yay I am so happy that you can relate! No one else will ever know what it is like to do the IB :P Also thumbs up for Veganism ;)!

[@re3mai]

[@SamoraLewis]

Thanks so much for making this video. I'm feeling kind of lost, like I'm not progressing or doing what I need to be doing. I think this will help me get back on track to do well with my IA, EE, CAS and my May exams next year.

[@fimiller98]

this is so helpful thank you!! i'm so nervous to go into the last year of IB and wow it's nice to hear that it's normal to be stressed to cry etc... thank you thank you

[@ZilynHD]

"IB will makes you SEXY!"

[@ginevra6201]

You make IB sound like something nice and almost fun lol. Thank you very much for the tips (especially the one on study guides, i think i'll give it a try) they seem really helpful!

[@bahatimsakamali1235]

IB kills me everyday..... I feel like a zombie.... I can't wait to get my life back next year.. I hope I graduate

[@malakh731]

Bahati Msakamali Good luck!

[@lfior]

Bahati Msakamali it's going to pass! keep going

[@salvikarayamajhi8065]

You seem AMAZING!!! Those tips were great and I bet they will be really useful.

[@rico6207]

Thank you for the tips!!! I'm starting IB from November, so I'll try my best by using those tips

[@LuluLucy1111]

I'm really not having a fun time in IB right now so this was really helpful and motivating! I'm in IB2 so I'm (sort of) close to finishing. It's definitely a stressful time but I've learned so much from IB not only academically but also just about perseverance and time management :) thanks for these tips!

[@joliejanine]

+Laura The IB is super though! But you can do it girl :) You will feel amazing afterwards!

[@marissaann1290]

Laura how did it go?

[@satanarchyb7824]

I started drawing illustrations and writing in cursive during my notes, and it's so helpful.

[@wqzhang7114]

Every time I feel like no I can't do it any more I just wanna be lazy, then I will come to your video and watch every details again! Really powerful video really useful to me and it just motivate me sooooooo much!

[@VampireGenius]

You're amazing! I'm from Poland and right now I'm in the pre-IB class. This video made me sooo motivated and happy ;) You have great attitude to this whole IB thing. Many my friend are (even right now) so stressed about this system. After watching this video I feel that this isn't as hard as they say :D Thank you so much

[@russell6817]

Thank you so much for all of the advice. I'm a junior in high school who is currently quite apprehensive to my sl and hl tests. This helped a ton!

[@glebkhachatryan242]

That is a great video!!:) I am currently at the last year of the IB, but dont have very good predicted results unfortunately, so I am very stressed out about my uni applications, but this video gave me the motivation to study:) HUGE THANK YOU!!

[@anishasrikar4996]

Your video gives me so much hope for IB. Thank you for the amazing tips!

[@kenza2570]

Going to UWC Maastricht :) So I'm going to start the 2 years of the IB on september ! So excited (and a bit scared tbh). Thanks for your amazing video, you're so cute and it's so pleasant to hear you talk !

[@riha885]

Congrats on your 42! That's amazing. I am going to start my IB soon this year and I wanted you to tell me some tips on English Language & Literature HL

[@speedgaming8131]

Glückwunsch! Das hast du gut zustande gebracht. Ich werde definitiv einige deiner Tipps benutzen, um besser zu lernen. Danke!

[@dayeonchoi8011]

I am in IB classes right now and this video helped so much!! Thank you!!!!

[@janakatharina9702]

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I swear I needed this. Your tips are amazing and the video is really motivating. I just finished my first semester in IB and it's been a nightmare. An interesting one but still a nightmare. I hope next semester will go better :P

[@forkhole]

Summary of the video: You need to fucking become crazy to get a 42 to in IB.

[@forkhole]

+G Min Nobody with a normal mind can take pretty notes every class, not procrastinate, tell friends biology facts, think math is fun, etc.

[@crackib5241]

[@caikio1769]

[@joliejanine]

+Winny Wang So glad you find this helpful :) Really thought I needed to share my experience! Good luck in the Ib girl

[@moo159]

fantastic video:D especially the first tip!! Our school is doing the IB since 3 years, which is nothing... There is no experience, but yeah, I'm already in the second year, so just make the best out of it:D

[@stephenheritage-young8727]

I can relate to you a lot! I really want to do architecture in the future but chose to do film (which I loved and had a 7). My first predicted grade was a 37 (should I have 3 bonus points), right after I switched to Art (I had no final piece from the required 3 at the time, so I achieved a 3). I switched to art in order to do architecture and kept having to do late work and am slowly catching up (but seems like forever). I had a 3 in Art AGAIN for doing only three pieces when I should've done five, and had a predicted grade sheet of 29 for the end of second half of the term/semester, averaging a 33. I used to hate maths too and was mediocre at it but once I moved to studies I began loving the class (mostly since I felt more comfortable) and after my end of term exam I took a 7. My school isn't as good as those in Europe since I live in Brazil, but its the best in the country with an average of 35. I really want to just drop everything here and live in Europe during year 12 since my family has the conditions and this might improve my education, and I am planning to do uni in Europe anyways.

[@irmakonrecord]

I am not an ib student but I want to be . because everyone says ib sucks blah blah but you made me clear that : if I study I can do this. tahnk you 😊💕💕 sorry about bad english 😊

[@wqzhang7114]

Well, I'm a grade 12 student, I guess it's really late to me to see this powerful video, it's really helpful and encourage me a lot, I know its late to say this, but I will just do it, just for making myself better! Keep working!

[@danah4558]

red looks good on you!! thanks for the tips.

[@madisonbrown3874]

This is great! Thanks! I am a diploma student right now.

[@samantamartinez2067]

What about CAS, TOK and the Extended Essay?

[@irenevalle844]

if you do them right you get 3 or 1 ( not sure) additional point in your IB final score , soo I guess she did a really good job in that too

[@jasmine9586]

I'm applying for IB soon, thank you so much for this video! : D

[@Sosolia99]

Thank you sooooo much! This is the most amazing ib tips video i've watched. Can u also do one on extended essays please?

[@karolinab.589]

[@josephinechau5923]

Hi, this is the first video that I watched on your channel, it does help me a lot. In this few days, I am deciding weather I am going to study in IB or VCE, I transfer to another school from Hong Kong to Australia in this year. Also, in this school they didn't get many choices in IB program, so I am considering about going back to my previous school in Hong Kong now. Although I am not good at studying and I might not get a good result in my final assessment, still I want to try my best to study in this program, I don't know why I just feel that I want to. In your video, I feel like the result is important however the process of how you get the result is much more important. thank you so much

[@Flairytale]

thank you soo much for all of these tips Im definitely going to use them for my last year of IB :)

[@cristianopat9650]

Starting next year, thanks! I'll take these tips to mind!

[@mariabelenvargassanmartin2314]

I am about to end my second year, i´ve got only 2 months left. STUDY AND DO YOUR WORKS ON TIME, I JUST MADE MY ENTIRE TOK ESSAY IN THREE DAYS AND IT IS EXHAUSTING AND I HAVE TO KEEP GOING. STUDY AND WORK ALL THE TIME, PLEASE.

[@icerberus3399]

Thank you for making this video now i can get 42 without reading in just 15 minutes. It really helped me getting 42 (adding all semester grades). if u don't believe then feel free to mail me.

[@wikijedras1910]

God, you’re amazing Love ya 😁 i’m in MYP and am going to pre-ib in a few months 💕 those tips are 👍🏻

[@MrSunnywu888]

Getting 40+ is not difficult. Some average ib scores of some schools in Hong Kong can be up to 38-40. The average ib score of HKU medicine is around 43-44, and for HKU architecture 40-41. Most students in Hong Kong choose to study the ibdp curriculum because they think that it is much easier than the local HKDSE curriculum.

[@karinatjipta1167]

+Sunny Wu Different schools has different expectations. Schools in Hong Kong are really competitive and I am not surprised if you said that.

[@liah.433]

My first week just ended. Yes, I am in DP2 and I will do dp1 and dp2 in one year. Wish me luck guys...

[@elisabethjakob974]

Hey Janine, nice video! :) May I ask what you did after you finished the IB, are you at uni now and if so what uni and what are you studying? I did the IB as well and I find it really heard to decide on what to study at uni as the IB provides and opens so many opportunities. I would love to hear how you knew what you wanted to do with your life after the IB?

[@iloveselenagomezyeah6486]

Sarah Jakob I haven't started IB yet but everyone that I talked to has done the subjects that they took at HL at uni so that my be a suggestion idk

[@teresaiwaniec3477]

Omg after I took HL Art for a year, I switched into HL Biology. I thought I was the only one crazy enough to switch after a year. XD

[@riyashah7151]

Thaanks a lott!! This helped

[@lloriew195]

Hey! Thank you for these awesome tips! I got into IB during November and I'm pretty much getting the hang of it. Probably your tips will boost me up a lot. I wanted to ask some few things -Which University are you studying in r/n? -If you're studying at an American university did you give SAT or TOEFL regardless of your IB Diploma? Or if you don't do you know people who got into an Uni in the USA without those exams? Again, Thank you so much

[@rosethegreek]

I'm a sophomore and currently deciding whether I should do the IB program. These are the classes I would take. HL: English (I'd take it 11th and 12th) European History (12th) Biology (taking SL in 11th, HL in 12th) SL: 1. Chinese (12th) 2. Music (11th) 3. Either SL Calc (11th) but if I take AP Calc then I'd do Business and Management

[@rosethegreek]

Please let me know if you have any advice for those classes. I'm not sure if I should take AP AB Calc next year or IB-SL. Does anyone know which is harder?

[@harveybosire1290]

Ib hl hardest AP medium IB sl easiest

[@bubbles43v3]

I really liked the tip about being passionate about the subjects (Even if you are faking it in the beginning ahaha) I am definitely going to change my attitude towards my subject now. Great video!

[@agustinalima]

My school doesn’t give you a choice, they make 7 “groups” and you pick what fits you better. This is because my national education programme makes you have certain subjects to get into public uni (90% of students go tu public uni, it’s free and it has more value than private ones). I chose the “economy” orientation, so now I’m stuck with high level history.

[@dariakubisztal8393]

I have just started my first year of ib. I'm not in the best mood cause my school doesn't seem to be properly prepared :/ Although, I will keep your words in my head because I think this are really great tips :)

[@cz3885]

[@malta-q4966]

Im finishing up the IB with only 1 month left till finals!!! Your advice was still helpful! whats interesting is you also go to UCT!!! Ive been wanting to go there!!! Did you have to take the NBTs or was the IB diploma sufficient?

[@tomirisoryn7950]

Hello! I'm DP1 student so I have just started my IB course. Thank you for the very useful tips! You helped me a lot! I'm also doing economics at higher level and my questions are: which grade did you get for this subject and can you give me some "economic" tips, that I can use in the final exam or in the subject in general?

[@nads1629]

I go to a not so good ib school. My current overall score is not so good. But I truly in my heart just want to ace my finals like you did!

[@rahmomohamedintintermitten428]

[@besosarlien8233]

thank you soooooooo much I think this video helped everyone to watch it and personally I took it to heart

[@Angelina-fd7mp]

Thanks for the video, it was really helpful! I was just wondering when you said taking time off, how did you catch up in class after missing, say a week, of school?

[@RplusS1]

this is so motivating

[@aysal7423]

watching this gave me hope, thank you :)

[@marinetanyan]

well done on your IB! my school is not experienced in IB and i feel like crying sometimes. i sit exams in May. btw the quality of your video is very good, what camera do you use?

[@mahsasilatani2143]

Dear Friend, I am so impressed by all the tips you presented for teenagers, cause they are all principles of having successfull life and career throughout life and useful even for me at 34 searching for job. I wish I knew these stuff at your age!!! Good luck and all the best

[@jacobtian9860]

Those advices sounds helpful, and rather practical, thank you so much :). However I still feel quite nervous about starting my pre-IB classes next semester, since many older students complain that they keep working till 12 'o clock in the evening in the 11th grade :-/ (p.s. I'm a 14 year old in Shanghai, China)

[@lowissmilez]

How much time did you spend studying before the finals? BTW I LOVE YOUR JUMPER!!!

thanks alot for making this video....i am a first year and i have the subjects that u had so this one really made me happy. its soooo hard but i hope i can go through this :)

[@melika1998]

what subject did you lose the 3 marks in? (if you don't mind me asking)

[@lumacoury9156]

I'm really trying to be strong but I'm almost DYING oh gosh

[@malaikak19]

Awesome video!! I'm an IB year two student. I love what you said about how being smart is sexy 🔥

[@killermjau]

Honestly, I would not say that the IB school is an important factor. It all comes down to how much time and work you invest into the diploma, not on how well your school performs. Each school has the people that don't do shit no matter how well the school does and they get the same marks as the school doing worse and vice versa. It all comes down to your own motivation and effort. (HL Chemistry, Biology and English B, SL Maths, Economics and Lat Literature here; state IB school in Latvia)

[@cherryblossom4.0]

This was an AMAZING video. Thank you soooo much!

[@isabellehedanius4504]

I'm doing the IB in Sweden!😃 I was wondering how you did to achieve good grades in Math SL? What did you get? And was the English B HL easy? Or easier than other subjects? How much time did you soend each week in Maths and English?

[@legumesss]

Zählt das genau wie das Abi? Wie funktioniert das denn mit dem NC? Hab irgendwie noch nie was davon gehört. :x Aber trotzdem gute Tipps! Ich finds immer bewundernswert, wenn Leute so viel und konsequent lernen können... ich war früher in der Schule schon super faul und jetzt auf der Uni immer noch. :D

[@thudang209]

Hi Janine, I'm about to go to Mahindra United World College whose curriculum is IB. I would love to prepare for IB as soon as possible, so I want to ask you about study guides. I'm going to buy study guides on Chemistry, Biology and Economics. Do you think I should buy those guides and what guides will you recommend me on English A: Literature? I also want to know whether or not we should buy new books or we just buy used books because new books of that kind on Amazon are really expensive. Hope to receive your reply soon.

[@mantezygelyte1256]

Hey! Thank you for the tips! Just wondering, how many points did you get from extended essay and TOK? And any suggestions for how to be improve and get good grades in math standard level?

This tips are so helpful! Thank you

Hello Jolie, I hope this reply isn't too late, but I was wondering which level did you take your Art at? I am thinking of doing SL Art and in your experience and your friends, what are the likelihood of getting a 7?

[@marlstarl8791]

This is such amazing advice, thank you!! :D

[@shannonmyers4972]

I didn't have a choice in choosing my subjects :(

[@stefaniecallista5027]

what? really? that's shit

[@shannonmyers4972]

+Stefanie Callista well what I mean is that there are not enough choices at my school, like the only choices I have are another foreign language, economics and art. And for the sciences , we can only choose bio or chem. Like that is not alot of choices for me.

[@shannonmyers4972]

+Stefanie Callista Might I add that I HAVE to take history and English lit HL

[@monicavelez506]

Same for me, it sucks because it is the best IB school in my country, yet we are only allowed to take sciences and math SL and English Literature and Spanish literature HL.

[@irenevalle844]

same is about to happen to me
