  • Difficulty is very subjective. Every student has his/her strengths and weaknesses. 

    Let’s look at the official stats of each subject uploaded by IBO for the November 2019 session to get an idea which subject students are finding difficult to score 

    Note: Not using 2020 and May 2021 stats as the exams were taken during covid and it will not reflect the true picture .

    1) Math HL: A total of 1,940 candidates gave the exam and the average score was 5.00

    2) Science: A total of 6638 candidates gave the exam for Physics HL (5.03), Chemistry HL (5.28), Biology HL (4.61) - Total Average score is 4.95

    Based on the viewing of the stats there doesn’t seem much difference between the two but note that Students appearing for science exams are 3 times more. 

    Also, the syllabus for science has more variety and depth as compared to Math HL. Certain aspects of Math are utilized in Physics HL.

    It’s safe to say that IB HL science is more difficult than Math.
