Aim and Overview of Paper 1 assessment

• Paper 1 promotes a holistic approach to IB Business Management 
• It assess all five units of the IB BM Syllabus
• Section C: Extended Response Question (Essay) – HL only 
• It requires students to inculcate analytical and critical thinking skills.

Each exam session, the IB releases a pre-issued case study for the external examinations. 

• For the May examination, it is released in the month of February. 
• For the November examination, it is released in the month of August. 

The case study is based on a hypothetical organisation, which covers all 5 units in the syllabus. It acts as a useful stimulus for students when revising for both Paper 1 and Paper 2. 

How To Prepare?

A couple of months before the IB Business Management Paper 1, you will be given a pre-released case study. I hope this blog will help you get an idea about how you can fully utilise all the time given to you to prepare!

• Read It – You need to know the case study inside out. You should spend so much time reading it several times so that you almost memorise it. 
• Make Notes – Each time you read the case study make notes. Firstly, start with summarising each paragraph and then each section. Then make a timeline to see the progression of the business and important dates. Then List all the stakeholders involved and how they impacted the organisation.  Moreover, try to split the case study in the five units. Generally, the case study will cover all the topics. Make a list of advantages and disadvantages. Lastly, Use BM techniques like SWOT, STEEPLE, Ansoff Matrix. 
• Think of Possible Questions and then answer them. 

Here we have prepared Notes for IB Case Study MAY 2023

2022 IB Exam Changes Due to COVID-19

Because of the ongoing COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, the IB has decided to extend the adaptations which were put in place for 2021 to 2022. May 2022 IB assessments will have two routes, exam and non-exam, depending on which your school chooses. Stay up to date with the latest information on what this means for IB diplomas, course credit for IB classes, and more with our our IB COVID-19 FAQ article .

To find that information quickly, use ctrl + f to bring up the search function. Next, type "marketing planning" and it'll bring up all the materials that match that term.

If you are just looking for IB exam study resources, you can skip to the end of this article to the "Comprehensive Notes" section . There, you'll find resources that cover the IB Business and Management exam as a whole.

Use this IB Business and Management study guide during the school year to help you prep for in-class tests . If you're struggling to understand class lectures, make sure you're getting additional help so that you learn the material throughout the school year. Don't wait to cram it in until right before the final IB Business and Management exam!

The Best Study Practices for IB Business and Management

The absolute best way to study for IB Business and Management tests and cement what you've studied is to practice past paper questions as you learn new topics in the classroom . Writing about concepts you're studying helps solidify them in your memory.

Also, there's a chance that you'll see the ideas covered in old paper topics somewhere on the final IB exam! You can find past IB Business and Management SL/HL papers in our guide .

As mentioned above, if you're struggling with the material in class, don't wait to ask for help . The best way to ensure you do well on the IB test is to learn the material throughout the year. If you're struggling to understand class lectures, you should also be reading the corresponding chapter in a textbook or study guide.

Common Study Mistakes for IB Business and Management

If you're having trouble in your IB Business and Management SL or HL class, you will need to seek additional help fast so you don't fall behind. Master the material during the school year and you'll be guaranteed to rock your IB papers!

But that doesn't mean you don't need to study to do well. The two most common study mistakes are as follows:

• Ignoring the material you don't understand in the classroom: If you didn't understand it in the classroom, seek help elsewhere, such as by using this IB Business and Management study guide or hiring a tutor.
• Waiting to learn the material until a week or two before the papers: There is a lot of material to master for the IB Business and Management class. A week or two is not enough time to get down everything you'll need to know (that's why the course is taught over a couple of years!). Be sure to learn the material as you're supposed to learn it in class.

Recommendations

"These case study packets are very detailed and valuable tool for any BM teacher. It is great how Collin has different case studies for each topic of the unit with detailed answers. These have been huge help in my preparation for BM classes and in preparing practice exams and worksheets."

   Ben 

"Collin’s case studies are great. They have been a huge help in my IB business management prep. He provides interesting case studies for all of the unit content with a detailed answer key. Highly recommend." 

   Tim 

"This is a really great resource that has already saved me ton of time! It can be so hard to find case studies that only test students on what they know in the first unit, and these case studies are geared for each chapter of the I.B. Business Management course. I have paid a lot more for resources that were not half as useful as this pack was. I can't wait to use them for other units as well!"

   Alison 

"To anyone considering making a purchase, just do it! I took advantage of the offer on the bundle of exam questions, units 1-5. Easy and secure payment, instant download (PDF) and more than one full exam style question for each topic. Mark scheme is straight forward. As it’s for questions based on Paper 2, it has a 10 marker for each subunit. Great resource. Plus as they have been written by Collin, they don’t come with hints of which websites they are from, making cheating less likely. Thank you so much, saved me hours of P&P."

   Bradley

"I've been teaching business management for the past four years, and I wanted to reach out to tell you that the cases make an excellent complement to the course: They're well thought out and are clearer in their answers and methodology than other resources that I've used in the past. Best of all, they don't go beyond the content that students are currently on. With this in mind, your cases are great for assessing specific domains of knowledge, and are an excellent complement to exam-style cases, which address topics from the entire course."
