Internal Assessment
HL and SL candidates both have the same internal assessment requirements. They must carry out a replication of a published study and then write an 1800 - 2200 word report, including an introduction, exploration of the methodology, analysis of results, and an evaluation of their process.
This section contains sample IA's, tips for organizing the IA, guidance for statistics and analysis of results, and guidance for how to write each of the required sections.
