IB Group 5 Subjects

IB Group 5 Subjects

The Group 5 (or Mathematics and computer science) subjects of the IB Diploma Programme consist of four different mathematics courses and two computer science courses. To earn an IB Diploma, a candidate must pass one of the following four mathematics courses: Mathematical Studies SL (Standard Level), Mathematics SL, Mathematics HL (Higher Level), or Further Mathematics SL. The Group 5 electives are Further Mathematics SL (if taken in addition to Mathematics HL), Computer science SL, and Computer science HL. Although Computer Science is in Group 5, this is only an administrative convenience - a Computer Science course does not fulfill the Group 5 requirement for an IB Diploma.

Famous quotes containing the words group and/or subjects:

    “Even in harmonious families there is this double life: the group life, which is the one we can observe in our neighbour’s household, and, underneath, another—secret and passionate and intense—which is the real life that stamps the faces and gives character to the voices of our friends. Always in his mind each member of these social units is escaping, running away, trying to break the net which circumstances and his own affections have woven about him.”
    —Willa Cather (1873–1947)

    “We are the subjects of an experiment which is not a little interesting to me.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
