I’m not even a freshman in high school yet, but I’m so lucky I found your channel for studying and revision. I was not the best student was super determined to improve my grades! When I found your channel, my grades have gotten so good. Nothing lower than a 3.8 GPA when I used to average at a 2.3! Your channel has done wonders for me! I got happier and more excited towards school, so thank you so much!~~~

What are the differences between your textbook notes and your summary notes/revision booklets?

[@kenechiachusiogu2777]

summary vs all of notes w full on explanations. pretty obvious

[@sarahc3743]

Yeah I understand that. I find it difficult to summarise as I write quite concise notes from the textbook, so in a way I feel like my 'textbook notes' are already my 'summary/revision notes'. And it feels like I'm just rewriting my notes when I make summary notes. But I guess it depends on the subject on whether it's more content-based or application-based and how each person writes their notes.

[@kenechiachusiogu2777]

@@sarahc3743 yeah I do chemistry physics and maths I only do summary notes for chemistry as I find it ineffective for the other two

[@sebastianblackfyre]

I think MYP is not a good preparation for DP. In fact, I could make a case suggesting that IGCSE is a better preparer, because the people in it are generally more exposed to exams and around 70% of the IB final grade ( external assessment ) originate from there. In comparison MYP is a joke compared to DP. I just competed MYP 5 and am moving to DP in September. I got a 28/32 for science. A 24/32 on the math section. There was a lot controversy over that. But I think more importantly, I took the dive and got lucky. If I could get a 7 for Biology SL/Chemistry SL, or mathematics (6) it would be for the best. Overall counting the average, I got a 46-1/2/56 in the end, so that is around 5.9 ( core subject ) out of a 7. Doesn’t look that bad. But I’d be grateful if I were to achieve a 36 on the IB, which is my goal.

Is Biology HL notes good since it was not written by you? How is economics, can I just buy the SL? Are all the notes kept in pdf version, right?

The Biology HL notes were written by a student who received a very high 7 and in terms of the economics, currently i only am selliing them as a full pack of SL/HL material. However, there is not much difference between the two content wise, besides the calculations for HL and theory of the firm stuff. Yes, all the notes are in PDF :) Hope that helps!

@@dennymanomg9006 it depends on the teacher, my teacher gives a lot of hw, which can take up to 6 h to complete before next lesson, so yeah I would say it's pretty damn hard, sometimes harder than the actual exam. If you have a teacher that wants you to succeed then they will provide you with adequate questions which will help you succeed. It's not possible to learn maths last minute, you have to develop a deep understanding that doesn't depend on revision or memorisation before tests, you should be able to answer maths questions at any time.
