Yeah, I was looking at the sample problems for physics online and I had no idea what I was looking at. But I just got the subjects blue book and the phys problems in there I realized I did know except for a few subjects. You can’t use a calculator and there’s no need to, which is really different from my IB physics class…we use our calculators a ton and need to.

I would still study a practice book because IB is different from AP and College Board and all that…I wouldn’t automatically assume our curriculum is going to cover all the topics in the same way on the test. It’s also factual and not thematic (can’t think of another word for it) which on some tests might mean you have to consider what you learned a little differently.
