IB Mathematics
IB Mathematics is a rigorous high school course, catering to a wide range of needs, interests and abilities, generally taught over two years. There are two different mathematics courses available, each with a standard level and higher level option.
Course Structure and Content
IB Mathematics students can select either Analysis and Approaches, or Applications and Interpretation, and either can be taken at Standard or Higher Level.
The AA courses take a more analytical approach to the subject with more focus on mathematical argument and proof, whereas the AI courses take a more contextual approach, placing mathematics in real-life applications.
Both Standard and Higher Level courses develop analytical thinking, problem-solving skills, and the ability to communicate ideas effectively. Students will engage with technology and explore concepts through investigation and modeling.
The choice between SL and HL depends on your interests, career goals, and academic strengths. HL is ideal for students planning advanced study in the field, while SL provides solid foundation for various career paths.
