IB Tutoring Barcelona. The International Baccalaureate (IB) program is very popular among the international schools here in Barcelona.

This post will talk about IB math Applications and Interpretations Higher Level (Applications HL).

Applications HL is considered one of the new math courses in the IB program as it is not as similar to the three old courses of the 2014 to 2020 examinations sessions.  However this math class is most similar to the old IB math standard level so students in Applications HL can practice for the IB exams in May with the past papers from IB math standard level.

Many IB past papers can be found at:

https://www.ibdocuments.com/IB%20PAST%20PAPERS%20-%20YEAR

Also, the above site also has questions banks which are the past paper questions from previous years organized into topics.  This is the best and most important things that the students need to practice before their exams.  Teachers give IB past paper questions for the exams.  For this reason students must always practice the past papers before the exam. Students need to know that the IB exams are always harder than the book level problems.

Additionally, In the past papers there is are things that will not be in the IB math standard level past papers.  This is the new content such as: Voronoi diagrams, graph theory, matrices, eigen values, steady state matrixes etc.

To be able to practice these students can do the chapter review in the back of the Oxford book.  But be careful as the new Oxford book has many errors and some of the solutions/problems are wrong.  You can go to revision village:

IfMathematics you would like to practice more of this new material as it is not in the past papers.

To help the students, here are some pdf with some essential information for the Applications HL course:
