IB DP Mathematics tutoring for Cairo students
This page is for Cairo students taking IB DP Mathematics HL/SL through an IB World School. Analysis and Approaches or Applications and Interpretation, each at HL or SL, plus the mathematical exploration (20%). HL students also sit Paper 3. Most of the marks that separate grades come from the right course choice (AA or AI), the exploration, and HL Paper 3 problem solving, so that's where our one-to-one online tutors spend lesson time. Cairo's international schools include British International School in Cairo, Cairo American College and Malvern College Egypt; our tutors work alongside whichever school your child attends, in Cairo time (GMT+2), after school or at weekends.
IB DP Mathematics - AA + AI, HL + SL explained
IB DP Mathematics is offered as two parallel programmes: Analysis & Approaches (AA) - pure, proof-led, leading to STEM and Maths-heavy degrees - and Applications & Interpretations (AI) - modelling-led, leaning into statistics, technology, and real-world data. Each programme runs at Higher Level (HL, 240 teaching hours) and Standard Level (SL, 150 hours). Most universities accept any of the four, but specific degrees (e.g. Maths, Physics, Engineering at top universities) typically require AA HL.
Higher Level (HL)
240 teaching hours · 3 papers · IA
HL Maths (both AA and AI) is three papers totalling 5 hours plus the Internal Assessment. Paper 1 (no calculator, AA only) tests pure technique. Paper 2 (calculator) tests application. Paper 3 (extended response, HL only) is a problem-solving deep-dive worth 20% of the final grade.
Standard Level (SL)
150 teaching hours · 2 papers · IA
SL Maths (both AA and AI) is two papers totalling 3 hours plus the Internal Assessment. Paper 1 is non-calculator for AA, calculator for AI. Paper 2 is calculator for both. No Paper 3 at SL.

Internal Assessment (IA)
The Mathematics Internal Assessment (IA) is a 12–20 page mathematical exploration worth 20% of the final grade. Students choose a topic, formulate a question, apply mathematical methods, and reflect on findings. Strong IAs make a real difference at the 6/7 boundary - our tutors coach the full IA cycle from topic selection through final draft.
Exam sessions
Two main IB exam sessions: May (Northern Hemisphere schools, the larger session) and November (Southern Hemisphere). Students sit all exams within a 2-3 week window. Re-takes are possible at the next session.
Grading on the IB 1–7 scale
IB grades each subject on a 1–7 scale. Final IB Diploma total is 45 points (6 subjects × 7 + 3 bonus points from TOK + Extended Essay). Grade 7 in HL Maths AA typically requires around 80% on the externals plus a strong IA score.
