IB Diploma (HL) Physics HL Grade Predictor 2026 (PHY-HL)

Unlike other boards, the IB doesn't publish real grade boundaries anywhere public — they're released only to schools via the IBIS/My IB portal. This predictor uses an unsourced estimate of typical grade bands, not official figures, so treat it as a rough guide only. The Physics HL grade-7 threshold has typically varied by about ±9 marks in that estimate. Ask your IB Coordinator for the real numbers.

Historically, IB Diploma (HL) Physics HL (PHY-HL) has needed around 121/169 marks for 7. The next grade down (6) typically opens at 102 marks. Enter your mock marks above to see exactly where your current performance sits and the gap to the next grade up.
