Understanding the IB Diploma Results

The IB Diploma at the end of Year 13 marks a significant milestone in a student’s academic journey, reflecting their dedication, perseverance, and intellectual curiosity.

Calculated on a 45-point scale, IB Diploma results provide a comprehensive view of a student’s performance. Many of our students achieve outstanding results, with 27% scoring over 40 out of 45 last year - an impressive testament to their exceptional academic commitment. We are equally proud of students who reach the passing score of 24, as it highlights their resilience, dedication, and ability to overcome challenges with determination. This also prepares them for future success.

Year after year, ISL students consistently achieve outstanding IB Diploma Results compared to the rest of the world.
