Many students wait until the last few months and then scramble with revision, IA deadlines, and paper-solving. But you can take the smarter path – a well-planned roadmap backed by expert guidance and consistent improvement.
I’ve mentored 100s of IB students globally across Math AA HL/SL and Math AI HL/SL, helping them score 6s and 7s, often from a 4 or 5.
📌 What You Should Focus on Now (Mid-2025):
1. Core Concept Mastery
By now, you should be comfortable with:
- Functions, Algebra, and Trigonometry
- Calculus (a huge chunk of Paper 2)
- Probability and Statistics (especially for AI students)
- Vectors & Geometry
🔍 Pro tip: Focus not just on solving, but on why methods work. Paper 3 (HL) often tests deep conceptual understanding.
2. Internal Assessment (IA) Planning
This is worth 20% (SL) or 20% (HL) of your grade, and it’s where many lose marks due to:
- Poor topic choice
- Weak mathematical exploration
- Lack of structure or reflection
🧠 Start now. Choose a topic that is:
- Personally interesting
- Mathematically rich
- Within your skill level
➡️ I offer personalized IA mentoring and review, with past examples and detailed feedback.
3. Past Papers & Predicted Trends
Start solving Nov 2022, May 2023, Nov 2023 papers. Track:
- Recurring question types
- Command terms (e.g. “hence”, “show that”)
- Common traps in Paper 2 and Paper 3
💡 Many students know the content but lose marks due to exam technique. Practice with timed conditions and expert review.
4. Monthly Plan Until the Exam
Here’s a quick glance at what your calendar should look like:
| Month | Focus Area |
|---|---|
| July–Sept | Syllabus completion, IA draft, early past paper solving |
| Oct–Nov | IA submission, full paper mocks, weakness targeting |
| Dec–Mar | Concept strengthening, time trials, calculator skills |
| Apr–Jul | Paper 2/3 advanced training, mixed question sets |
| Aug–Oct | Full revision, mock tests, exam simulations |
| Nov 2025 | Exam week – arrive calm, prepared, and confident |
