  • IB maths is almost same as that of the regular high school final year, especially in Advanced Functions and Calculus and Vectors (Calculus and Vectors is one course).

    There could be some variations. In the Indian context, the 10th/12th standard maths is comparable to the IB SL maths. IB maths typically has more of differentiation and integration in calculus and less of the vector. The Geometry also could be slightly on the higher side. You should be prepared for some surprise of having some misleading or tricky questions as well in IB.

  • Some surprising questions can be expected as a challenge in the in Maths SL exam. With some creative thinking scoring higher marks is not too complicated.     

    From a general perspective, the curriculum for IB Maths SL is almost same as that of an average high school math class. If you have practised well, the exam would be just a cake walk. Your understanding the questions well is also essential to remove ambiguity.

  • The IB Maths SL covers a wide range of topics but in lesser detail and complexity than that of the HL course. The weight of the assignments carries a significant percentile of score and scores. If you can get anything around seven cut off, you should be happy.         

    The IB maths SL is easier compared to science stream. The more you practice; the getting through papers will be of great help as far as there are many different ways to test you on something. 

    For many students IB Maths SL is comfortable, but for people who are not math-  minded, you  will find some difficulty. 
    The IB math SL covers much more than just Calculus AB., Trigonometry, Vectors and probability.
