IB Psychology is conceptually demanding and requires strong essay writing and research skills. Students must learn theories and studies and apply them critically to various scenarios. It's manageable with consistent study and structured support.

Getting a 7 in IB Psychology requires analytical thinking, a strong grasp of studies, and excellent essay writing. Around 8–10% of HL and 10–12% of SL students achieve a 7. Focused revision and skilled tutoring significantly improve chances.

The Internal Assessment is a replication of a published psychological experiment, including hypothesis, method, results, and evaluation. It is up to 2,200 words and counts for 25% of the SL and 20% of the HL final grade. Our tutors assist in experiment selection, analysis, and scientific writing to meet IB criteria.

Standard Level (SL):

Paper 1 (2 hours): Short-answer and extended-response questions on the three core approaches (49 marks).

Paper 2 (1 hour): Extended response on one option (22 marks).

Higher Level (HL):

Paper 1 (2 hours): Same as SL (49 marks).

Paper 2 (2 hours): Extended responses on two options (44 marks).

Paper 3 (1 hour): Three questions on research methods in the context of the HL extension (24 marks).

Our tutors train students to apply theories, write strong arguments, and practice effective time management.

Psychology tutors help with mastering theories, applying them to questions, and improving structured essay writing. They also assist with IA planning, data analysis, and critical evaluation. Tutoring strengthens understanding and prepares students for future study in psychology, neuroscience, or social sciences.

IB Psychology explores human behavior through biological, cognitive, and sociocultural perspectives.

Core topics include:

Biological Approach: Brain function, genetics, hormones, and neurotransmitters.

Cognitive Approach: Memory, decision-making, and cognitive biases.

Sociocultural Approach: Social identity, cultural norms, and group dynamics.

Research Methods: Experimental design, ethics, and evaluation of psychological studies.

Students also study one option (e.g., abnormal psychology, health psychology, or relationships) and HL students examine research methods in more depth.
