IB DP Mathematics tutoring for New York City students
New York City has one of the densest IB World School clusters in North America — UNIS (United Nations International School), Dwight School, Avenues The World School, the British International School of New York, Léman Manhattan, plus a growing roster of public-school IB programmes across the five boroughs. NYC IB students typically aim at Ivy League, top US private universities (Stanford, MIT, Duke), and increasingly UK Russell Group institutions where the IB is well understood. Our online IB Maths tutors deliver lessons in ET (GMT-5 / EDT-4) across both AA and AI at HL and SL, with structured Paper 3 (HL) coaching, IA support from topic ideation through final draft, and timed past-paper drilling ahead of the May exam session.
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.

Which NYC IB World Schools teach Mathematics AA and AI at HL and SL?
Major IB-authorised schools in NYC offering the full Maths AA/AI HL/SL range include UNIS (United Nations International School), Dwight School, Avenues: The World School, British International School of New York, Léman Manhattan Preparatory School, and several public-school IB programmes across Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens.
How does the IB compare to AP for US college applications?
Both IB and AP are recognised by every US college. AP is course-by-course (students take individual exams); the IB Diploma is a complete two-year programme with required components (TOK, Extended Essay, CAS, six subjects). Selective US colleges often value the IB Diploma's breadth and the rigour signal of a 38+ score. The right choice depends on the school offering and the student's goals.
Should my child take Math AA HL or Math AI HL for a US college application?
AA HL is the gold standard for students applying to Math, Engineering, Physics, CS, or quantitative Econ programmes at top US colleges (MIT, Stanford, Caltech, Princeton). AI HL is a strong fit for Business, Social Sciences, Architecture, or Design pathways. SL options work well for non-quant majors where Maths is a breadth requirement rather than a major.
