IB Practice

Your IB practice home

Open the DP course your class is studying. Every course is broken into topics and skills so you can practise one idea at a time, check your work, and learn from clear worked answers.

Choose your course

Choose the course name that matches your school class. If you are unsure which Mathematics course to pick, check whether you are in Analysis and Approaches or Applications and Interpretation, and whether you are taking Standard Level or Higher Level.

SL

Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches SL

Choose this if your class focuses on algebra, functions, trigonometry, calculus, and exact mathematical thinking.

Build confidence with step-by-step questions, graphs, and worked answers for each skill. SL

Mathematics: Applications and Interpretation SL

Choose this if your class focuses on statistics, modelling, interpreting results, and using mathematics in real situations.

Practise data, functions, probability, graphs, and calculator-supported thinking without losing the reasoning. HL

Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches HL

Build close reading and whole-work argument while keeping the writing student-owned. Core

Extended Essay

Choose this for Extended Essay question design, source judgement, evidence planning, structure, reflection, and viva voce preparation.

What you can do next

Use the dashboard as a quick starting point, then move into a course and practise the skills your class is working on.

Pick the right course Choose the course name that matches your school class. This matters because the questions and explanations follow the style of that course.
Work skill by skill Start with a topic you have recently studied, then move to the skills that feel weaker. Short, focused practice is better than guessing through a whole paper too early.
Use the worked answer After checking an answer, read the steps carefully. The goal is not just to get the final number, but to understand why the method works.
Come back before assessments Use the same course pages for revision before class tests, internal assessment work, mock exams, and final exams.

Use the practice deliberately

A good session is narrow: one topic, a few serious attempts, and a careful review of the worked answer or feedback before moving on.

Subject skill practice

Use maths, science, economics, business, psychology, geography, history, and politics skills to rehearse the exact reasoning the course asks for.

Writing and core work

Use English, TOK, EE, and CAS tasks to check focus, evidence, method, reflection, and academic-integrity boundaries.

Visual practice

Graphs, diagrams, tables, maps, and source visuals are used where they make the skill easier to practise, not as decoration.
