Paper 1

Paper 2

Focuses on concepts and techniques related to differentiation, integration and kinematics.

Calculus

Focuses on the nature, execution, and applications of differentiation. 

Differentiation

Focuses on techniques and applications for both indefinite and definite integration. 

Integration

Focuses on kinematics, or motion - including the concepts of displacement, velocity, and acceleration. 

Kinematics

Focuses on concepts and techniques related to measures of central tendency and dispersion; linear correlation of bivariate data; use of tables and diagrams to calculate probabilities; and probability distributions of both discrete and continuous random variables.

Statistics & Probability

Focuses on the analysis and presentation of univariate data

Descriptive Statistics

Focuses on correlation and linear regression for bivariate data.

Correlation and Regression

Focuses on the use of diagrams and probability theory to solve problems in context.

Probability

Focuses on the use of discrete and continuous random variables to solve problems in context.

Distributions

Focuses on concepts and techniques related to right-angled and non-right-angled trigonometry using both degrees and radian measure. Explores trigonometric equations, identities, and functions.

Geometry & Trigonometry

Guides you through the process of developing your Mathematics IA, covering everything from forming your initial idea and interpreting the assessment criteria to using technology, statistical and modelling techniques, and completing your final submission.

Internal Assessment

Plan and begin creating your own exploration

Getting Started

Explore a range of explorations and use the assessment criteria to assess their strengths and weaknesses

Exemplars

Essential statistical methods for your internal assessment

Statistical Methods

Use technology to build and refine mathematical models that describe real-world phenomena.

Modelling Methods

Everything you need to plan, structure, and write a complete exploration in just a few hours. 

The Express IA

This resource combines Bootcamps and an IA Toolkit to support students throughout the IB Mathematics course. Our Bootcamps are carefully sequenced, intensive workshops designed by experienced IB Math teachers to review the key concepts, techniques, and problem-solving skills needed to achieve a 7. Our IA Toolkit provides structured guidance for the Internal Assessment, including how to get started, how the criteria work, and practical activities to help students develop, refine, and evaluate their exploration.

This resource combines topic-based Bootcamps and an IA Toolkit. Bootcamps review key concepts, while the IA Toolkit supports your Internal Assessment.
