Studying for IB Diploma Exams? - The 5 Step Method I used to Score 43/45 in the IB Diploma

[@thedarklord1319]

Thank you so much Markos, I aim to get a 40/45 and I've been exactly doing what you've said in this video :))

[@MarkosDrakos]

Fantastic! Good luck with exams!

[@roslynnemidgley6606]

This is very simple but also very worthwhile for students to hear from a successful graduate

[@MarkosDrakos]

Thanks!

[@MarkosDrakos]

Let me know if you have any questions here!

[@jennyyang6994]

This advice is amazing! If every school taught this in their “how to revise / study” sessions, would guarantee greater success to way more students

Thank you so much!!

Thank you so much!!

[@m0taro365]

Thank you man. You have motivated me before I started ib and still do up to this day

[@rufatrassulov]

Thank you, your videos are very helpful! Where can I find exam specifications of the subjects?

[@MarkosDrakos]

Just look it up, the first link is usually the right one!

[@Kfjfjdndjxhdjd]

Thankyou so much for this video! I just also wanted to ask you about the chem IA, because I feel as if none of my ideas are original and so I am kind of going in circles... for example I am thinking about doing something on the hydrolysis of aspirin or the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide, but I dont know how to approach it from a more unique perspective so I am feeling a bit stressed. Do you have any advice? 🙈

[@MarkosDrakos]

Hi! I'll be uploading my Chemistry IA very soon actually, so make sure to keep your eyes out for that! With regards to the ideas, don't be afraid to just look through the syllabus and see if there is anything that might be interesting to look more into. Funnily enough, I actually did the catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide using Fe(III), looking at the activation energy for the reaction, which wasn't entirely original, but I had a slight twist, making it more original, which helped me get a 7. I think thats the key - find something that you know will work (and is doable experimentally), and then add your own twist, usually in the form of the independent or dependent variable.

[@Kfjfjdndjxhdjd]

@@MarkosDrakos ahh ok thankyou so much- was the fe(III) catalyst your twist? I will definitley be watching the video as soon as it comes out ahahha!

How do I manage my time studying in a boarding house from time 4 to 11 with subjects like Maths AA HL , Physics HL, and Chemistry HL and other SL subjects

[@MarkosDrakos]

Oof those are some hard choices! Have a look at my video on creating a timetable, I hope it helps! kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHykZa2FeZKBqtU

Hey Marcus, this video was really helpful for me. Can you please suggest me some websites where there are notes and revision papers as I currently study in 9th grade and after a couple of months I'll be studying in the 10th. I need the notes and the revision papers for my boards.

[@MarkosDrakos]

Hi! I'm not sure what the ecosystem of online notes is nowadays, but I'm sure with a quick google search you are bound to find some great stuff! If not, do ask your teachers and I'm sure they are more than happy to make past papers for you!

[@harshil_00]

@@MarkosDrakos Hey thanks for the reply. I will surely do that. :)

[@borutouchiha4962]

Thank you Markos but do you have any tips for getting good grades in English ?

[@MarkosDrakos]

Oof I’m sorry - despite my 7 I wouldn’t be much help in offering advice for English I’m afraid. Check out my video on how to write essays generally, as that might be useful!
