You forget be calculating statistics and showing trends. The to a greater extent detailed the numbers, the more you can say about them. And nearly half of your IA grade leave alone be based on what you do with these numbers.ETHICS Refer almost to the Guide as you prepare.

If you over the summer you find that you cannot write about your experiment, you will still have clipping to choose another one. I will be available passim the summer through with(predicate) emails, and at cadences through Moodle, so keep in touch. The IB says that you must have 30 hours (SL) and 40 hours (HL) of class time devoted to the IA. I prefer to use this time to work on how to do the experiment, express the results, debate the conclusions.But for that, you need to get through the simplest processes on your own. Every one of you is capable of a grade of 5 if you are diligent. And once you know you have an IA grade of 5, youll have regenerate confidence and motivation to get through the final m onths of the course.
