IB Mathematics AA Syllabus

What You'll Learn

𝑥

Number & Algebra

Sequences, series, binomial theorem, logarithms, and proof. HL students also cover complex numbers, proof by induction, and counting principles.

ƒ

Functions

Domain, range, composite and inverse functions, transformations, and graphing. HL extends to polynomial theory, factor and remainder theorems, and rational functions.

Δ

Geometry & Trigonometry

Trigonometric identities, circular functions, sine and cosine rules, and 3D geometry. HL adds vectors in 3D, cross product, and intersections of lines and planes.

σ

Statistics & Probability

Descriptive statistics, probability distributions (binomial, normal), regression, and hypothesis testing. HL extends to Poisson distribution, Bayes' theorem, and continuous distributions.

Calculus

Differentiation, integration, kinematics, and optimisation. HL goes deeper into related rates, volumes of revolution, differential equations, Maclaurin series, and l'Hopital's rule.

📝

Internal Assessment

We help you choose a strong IA topic, structure your exploration, and present mathematical reasoning clearly. The IA is worth 20% of your final grade.

Our Approach

How We Help You Succeed in IB Maths

1

Diagnostic Assessment

We start by identifying exactly where you stand. Which topics are solid, which need work, and what exam technique gaps exist.

2

Concept-First Teaching

We teach the logic behind the formula. When students understand why, they can tackle problems they have never seen before.

3

Past Paper Mastery

We work through real IB past papers under timed conditions. You learn the examiner's language and common traps.

4

Exam Confidence

By exam day, you have seen every question type. No surprises, no panic. Just structured, confident performance.
