  1. All You need to know about IB Board What is the IB board? Let's start by defining IB. In the 1960s, the International Baccalaureate (IB) program was developed in Switzerland. The curriculum was designed to provide students from around the world with a challenging, globally recognized certificate for admission to colleges. IB offers students the IB Diploma, which is accepted by most colleges and universities. There are now about 148 schools in India using the IB curriculum, which was adopted in the country in 1976. It consists of four programs: 1. Primary Years Program (PYP) 2. Middle Years Program (MYP) 3. Diploma Program (DP) 4. Career Related Programs (CP) Why are more Indian schools implementing the International Baccalaureate (IB) curriculum? Presently there are more options for curriculum in Indian schools than just the state board, ICSE or CBSE. With the idea of "Globalization" spreading across the globe, international schools are opening up in India at a respectable rate.

  2. Lists of top IB Schools in India Advantages of IB over other boards 1. The IB curriculum emphasizes experiment-based learning, creativity and a holistic approach to education. 2. IB prepares students to be global citizens. The curriculum is structured in such a way that a student can develop a worldwide perspective and become globally competent – confident, self-reliant and aware of global events. 3. IB helps students develop critical thinking. In the modern world, critical thinking is essential because it allows people to analyze, evaluate, and generate ideas. As future citizens of the world, students can benefit from this kind of thinking. 4. IB gives instruction in balance- An IB student is seen to have a balanced study routine, effective time-management abilities and a personality that goes beyond academics. The curriculum promotes creativity, action and service (CAS) as well as learning outside the traditional classroom setting. With the help of this balance a learner can develop emotional, physical, intellectual and moral balance. 5. IB promotes deep learning – IB syllabus and exams discourage learning a subject just to get marks or grades. Subject groups allow students the freedom to choose a subject of their choice, which promotes a deeper understanding of a particular subject. IB upholds the principle of its motto, "Learn to Understand". 6. The Theory of Knowledge (TOK) and Extended Essay (EA) components of the IB curriculum urge students to "apply" the knowledge acquired in the classroom. For example, TOK encourages students to make connections between multiple subjects and supports their learning. This method of instruction greatly helps in the overall development of the student by fostering a contemporary and global perspective. As a result, the IB curriculum represents the future of education in all countries. You can use the following table of contents to navigate to the various subject areas: Group 1: Language and literature studies Group 2: Learning a language Group 3: Consists of people and societies Group 4: Science Group 5: Math Group 6: The Arts You must take courses from each of the six areas to earn your IB Diploma. Remember that you can take a language, people and society, or science course in place of an arts major. You will also have to complete the core part, which consists of a separate course called Theory of Knowledge (TOK).

  3. Group 1: Language and literature studies The first category of IB Diploma courses includes language and literature courses. According to the IB, these classes are "designed to develop a student's lifelong interest in language and literature, as well as a love for the richness of human expression." Group 2: Language Acquisition The main goal of this series of classes is to teach students to speak a foreign language fluently, while also learning about and appreciating a different culture. Group 3: Individuals and Societies The third set of IB Diploma courses covers various social science subjects including politics, psychology and social studies. The group aims to provide students with a "critical appreciation of human experience and behavior" as well as knowledge of cultural institutions and the various environments in which individuals live. Group 4: Science You will choose either Physical Science or Technical Science to study in this group of classes. Its objective is to give students a deeper understanding of the scientific method. Group 5: Mathematics These courses are designed to help students develop an understanding of mathematical information, concepts, and principles, as well as the ability to abstract and generalize. All of them are available online. Common Study Errors that IB Math Students Make Group 6: The Arts This final set of IB classes emphasizes creativity and various artistic pursuits, such as the performing arts (such as sketching and painting) and visual arts (such as theater and dance). If you do not wish to, you may satisfy this requirement by enrolling in an additional class from Group 1, 2, 3, or 4 in lieu of taking an art course. The core of the Diploma Program (DP) Along with the six academic subject groups, students also participate in the following three DP core activities: In the Theory of Knowledge course, students are encouraged to consider the nature of knowledge and what it means to say, "I know." Extended Dissertation, a 4,000-word report that is the result of an independent research project and Creativity, Action and Service (CAS), in which students engage in projects and extra-curricular activities focused on these themes.

  4. IB Grading Pattern The maximum score for any IB course is seven. The Extended Essay and ToK parts of the DP Core are graded on an A to E scale. Creativity, action and service are pass/fail requirements. You get 1-3 points based on the sum of your TOK and EE scores, making your total possible score 45. At the conclusion of the IB Diploma program you receive a final grade with a maximum possible score of 45. Of these, 42 issues are due to your six IB categories. The minimum score required to obtain the IB Diploma is 24, and you must obtain a minimum score of nine for each of your SL subjects and a minimum of 12 overall in your HL subjects (no score less than 3). At Reviser, we are providing IB help to help those students who want to clear IB exam with highest grade.
