🤔 1. What Do IB “Predicted Scores” Actually Mean?

  • IB predicted grades are teacher-generated estimates submitted to universities before exam results are released. These rely on mock exam data, internal assessments, and overall performance trends.

  • Historically, predictions hit exact grades about 50% of the time, with an average deviation of ±0.5 points. Higher variance appears in TOK and the EE.

🧪 2. AI-Based Prediction Tools—How They Work

  • RevisionDojo’s IB Grade Predictor allows you to input raw or mock exam scores, IA results, and TOK/EE marks. It then calculates a projected diploma score using real IB grade boundary data from recent exam sessions and regional (timezone) adjustments.

  • This tool supports strategic planning—helping you identify how percentage improvements translate into higher grade bands.

📉 3. How Accurate Are AI Predictions in Practice?

  • Prediction engines can be reliable when actual mock data (not guesses) are entered.
  • However, they are not guarantees, especially if your performance changes significantly in final assessments or exam conditions vary sharply.

  • The IB's own prediction system—used during exam cancellations—faced criticism over bias and unfair results, highlighting the limits of algorithmic prediction.

✅ 5. How to Use AI Predictions Wisely

  • Use the tool to set realistic targets and identify exam areas needing focus.
  • Focus efforts on papers where a small boost (e.g. +5%) can increase your grade.
  • Ask teachers for feedback on prediction estimates—especially if you see discrepancies.
  • Use AI as a strategic learning guide, not as a final guarantee.

📊 Example Case

Imagine you scored:

  • Paper 2: 70%
  • IA: 25/30
  • TOK/EE Combined: 3/3

With May 2025 grade boundaries (via IB Predict), your projected subject grade might be 6 (HL). If you improve Paper 2 to 78%, your final score could reach 7—a crucial jump for university admission criteria.
