🎯 Why Detecting Coursework Weaknesses Early Matters

Internal Assessments, Extended Essays, and TOK essays make up 20–30% of your IB Diploma score. Catching weaknesses before final submission gives you time to revise structure, argumentation, and presentation—where it matters most. RevisionDojo’s Jojo AI marks your draft the instant you upload it, highlighting areas needing improvement. (revisiondojo.com)
