Why Use Subject-Specific IB Question Collections
One of the smartest ways to prepare for IB exams is to work through questions filtered by subject and topic. Subject-specific collections:
- Reduce the overwhelm of massive past paper dumps
- Help focus revision on the exact skills and concepts you need
- Allow deeper, targeted mastery by reinforcing each unit's key objectives
How Subject-Specific Collections Differ from General Past Papers
Instead of sifting through entire exam PDFs for a single type of question, subject collections let you:
- Target specific question types (e.g., Paper 1 multiple choice or Paper 3 essays)
- Practice by syllabus topic for maximum efficiency
- Improve weak areas without redundant effort
Whether you're doing timed practice or focused revision, these collections save hours of guesswork.
Math IB Question Collections
IB Math is split into Analysis & Approaches (AA) and Applications & Interpretation (AI)—each with distinct themes.
AA and AI Split
- AA HL/SL: Emphasizes calculus, algebraic structures, and proofs
- AI HL/SL: Focuses on statistics, modeling, and practical problem-solving
Popular Topics in Collections
- Functions and Graphs
- Calculus (limits, derivatives, integration)
- Probability and Statistics
- Trigonometry and Geometry
Each set includes step-by-step worked solutions and mark scheme guidance for both SL and HL.
Using with Formula Sheets
When using question collections, always keep your IB Math formula booklet handy. Sketch graphs and solve on paper before comparing with solutions.
Science IB Question Collections
Sciences in IB (Biology, Chemistry, Physics, ESS) rely heavily on structured question practice—especially for Paper 2 and Paper 3.
Comprehensive Coverage
Each subject includes:
