Each of the six subjects is given a final grade of 1 – 7 (7 being the highest) with a possibility of 3 extra points for Extended Essay and TOK. Failure to meet CAS requirements or an ‘E’ grade in either TOK or EE can result in students not being awarded the Diploma. (Please refer to ibo website for additional requirements). This gives a final maximum mark of 45. A Diploma is awarded upon attaining 24 points and meeting all IB requirements. Universities will give conditional offers requiring a specific number of points. The offers will depend upon the standing of the university and the popularity of the subject. Please see the IB Academic Integrity Policy.
