The education system in India has seen many reforms lately. You all might have come across the term IB or International Baccalaureate. The Ace Academy at Mumbai is a very prestigious IB institute that has a huge number of accolades to their credit. We all come at a point in our life where we find the subject of Mathematics a little difficult.
In IB Mathematics scoring a 7 is not easy. It is a steep hill to climb. It is not possible to clear the examination without the guidance of experts. The IB Mathematics Ace Academy institute at Mumbai is one of the institute who has taken the plunge to represent the country on a global pedestal. They are famous for the outstanding results the students achieve every year. Their record is second to none! There are various testimonials of success that one can possibly draw inspiration from.
In the year 2020, IB decided to change the course. It fragmented its courses into two categories- Analysis and Approaches and the Analysis and Interpretations. The name of the courses pretty much define themselves. The former one introduces a theoretical approach and the latter one applies to the real life questions. The institute has left no stone unturned in equipping students with the best study material. The tutors have an updated knowledge about the course and they will guide the students in the best way possible. However, they also expect a certain amount of input from the students. It is imperative that the students study hard and be consistent throughout the training course. They should not miss out on a single lecture.

- Standard category.

Techniques for scoring a 7.
This is not a straightforward task in any way. Start preparing from way before for your examination so you can completely understand whether the article is going to be out. Since having a grade 7 is no easy feat, be prepared to put in a lot of time and commitment.
Of course, to help you get there, there are few tips and tricks. So here are our top tips for IB Math scoring a Grade 7 by our IB Maths Tutors at IB Ace Academy.
The IB tutors encourage the students to follow the below guidelines-
- Keep practicing the concepts
Math is all about practice. There are many students that dread the subject while there are some students who find it an easy and a scoring subject. The best thing about this subject is that once you get the hang of it, it can be the most scoring subject. It is a hands on subject and one can’t just mug up or learn things. One needs to be consistent and understand the concepts properly. The IB tutors encourage the students to start practicing from the day 1 itself. The tutors do not suggest the students to start solving the complex problems from the beginning. Solving wrong sums might discourage you. Start solving small problems and once you are done, you can take a look at the solution from the reference book or the textbook.
Once you get all the steps right, you gain the confidence.
- Note down all the formulae
It is imperative for all the students to note down all the formulae of Math. Only visuals are not enough to by heart all the formulae. Some students also prefer to stick diagrams of the formulae on their study table. It is also advisable to make flash cards of the formulae in your textbook. As soon as one topic gets over, the IB tutors students keep a separate hour for hands on practice of all the equations and math problems. After this, the expert faculty also keeps a separate doubt-solving session for the students and the doubt of each student is solved on the blackboard. Derivation is important from the point of view of the exam. You need to understand the logic behind a formulae.
- Refer the question papers of the past
The IB examiners follow a tailor-made approach while setting a particular paper. They already have an idea about the structure and the degree of toughness of the examination. They make you aquainted with you as early as possible. For some people some topics might be easy and for some people they could be difficult. It is important to gauge your area of expertise and work accordingly. When you refer to the previous year’s question paper, you get an idea about the degree of toughness.
The IB Ace Academy has a separate database for all the handwritten notes. You can refer them anytime.
- Refer the textbook thoroughly
It is very important to refer to the textbook as the textbook is a blueprint of a particular subject. We all take help of different types of study material such as E-books, audio-recordings, video-recordings, handwritten notes etc. But studying from the textbook is as important as studying from all these types of study material available.
It is also important to work on your attention and break your attention between the papers. The IB tutors help out each student to prepare strategies for studying the subject.
The school gives the data booklets for Math but sometimes the booklet could be outdated. The IB gives the students a revised data booklet.
If you follow the footsteps of the expert faculty and starting working in a proper direction, you can get a score of 7 in the examination.
