CORE Points

In the IB full diploma program students may earn up to 45 points. This includes up to 3 core points, which are based on the student's theory of knowledge and extended essay results. These letter grades are placed on a matrix to determine how many core points to award. The matrix can be found below.

At DAA we have found that students who score 2 and 3 core points also tend to score higher overall in the other diploma program subjects.
