IB Mathematics AI questions

What does Mathematics AI emphasize?

It emphasizes mathematical modelling, applications in real contexts, interpretation of results and effective use of technology.

Is Mathematics AI the same as Mathematics AA?

No. Applications and Interpretation and Analysis and Approaches are separate IB mathematics courses with different emphases and assessment structures.

Is technology used in Mathematics AI examinations?

Yes. The IB course outline specifies that technology is used in all external assessment papers for Mathematics AI.

Why must I choose SL or HL?

SL and HL have different depth, papers and syllabus requirements, so the selected level determines the correct study page.
