4/22-4/26 (Practice IB Tests this week!)


  • This week we are getting ready for the IB exam!  Everyone will participate in these practice tests, even students who are not taking the test.  We are doing Papers 1 and 2 during class and you have an extended form of a Paper 3 as a take-home test (see documents section if you don't have it).  Turn it in through turnitin.com by Friday, 4/26.  You also have a data-based question that you need to turn in as a hard-copy by Friday.  
  • Mon 4/22:  Practice Test of Paper 1.  This is 40 multiple choice questions.  You will get 20 points just for taking it (but do your best!  no 20 simply for filling in bubbles.  Put some thought into it) and then up to 5 more for doing well.
  • Wed 4/24:  First part of Paper 2.  This is a long data-based question and then some random questions about the higher level syllabus.
  • Fri 4/26:  Second part of Paper 2.  There are 4 sets of 3 essay-type questions and you need to answer 2 complete sets.  Answer as thoroughly as you can!   Your practice test for Paper 3 (evolution and Neurobiology and Behavior) is due by today!  Turn in essay part through turnitin.com and the data-based question as a hard-copy.
