AI-based Projections: Determining Your Likely Exam Scores in IB
In the realm of International Baccalaureate (IB) education, the use of artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being employed to aid students in their academic journey. One such tool is RevisionDojo's AI reviewer, which some users find to be lenient yet informative, particularly beneficial when teacher feedback is minimal.
Traditionally, teacher-predicted grades for IB students are based on a holistic view encompassing Internal Assessments (IA), mock exam performance, in-class tests and quizzes, coursework, participation, as well as historical trends and departmental benchmarking. These predictions, while comprehensive, may not always align with the final grades due to factors such as overprediction, subjectivity, and late improvements.
However, AI-based IB score prediction tools, like RevisionDojo's Grade Predictor (IB Predict), have demonstrated around 80% accuracy in predicting students' final grades. These predictions can help students set realistic grade targets, focus on weak subjects, and understand diploma eligibility and university implications.
While teacher-predicted grades match final outcomes about 50–60% of the time, AI models tend to provide more consistent and less variable predictions. However, they may average out extremes, whereas teachers can adjust predictions based on qualitative factors.
Direct head-to-head studies specifically for IB score predictions are sparse, but evidence from education AI suggests complementary roles for AI and teachers in IB grade prediction. AI-based models can match or sometimes outperform teachers in prediction consistency and scalability, but teachers' contextual knowledge remains essential, especially for nuanced cases.
RevisionDojo's Grade Predictor allows users to input subject marks, add TOK and EE predicted marks, choose session grade boundaries, and get an instant estimate of total diploma points. It uses IB rules to calculate core points such as TOK/EE combination and HL/SL subject limits, and it also calculates core bonus points and checks eligibility for diploma award.
The RevisionDojo's Grade Predictor provides actionable insights, such as "You need to improve Paper 2 by 12% to move from a 5 to a 6". It uses historical grade boundary data for precise conversion from raw marks to final grade letters and aligns with moderated grades, especially for coursework and IB predictions in sciences/humanities.
It's important to note that predictions match final grades only 50-60% of the time; around 5-10% of students outperform significantly. Predictions form the basis of most conditional offers for universities, but they're not final, and one should aim to meet or exceed them in final exams.
In conclusion, AI-based tools like RevisionDojo's IB Predict can enhance or supplement teacher predictions but are not yet full replacements for the nuanced judgment teachers provide in IB grade prediction contexts.
