Mathematical Studies

Course summary

The International Baccalaureate (IB) curriculum offers two different mathematics courses: Mathematics Analysis and Approaches (AA) and Mathematics Applications and Interpretation (AI). These differ in: Focus and Approach Mathematics Analysis and Approaches (AA): This course emphasizes theoretical understanding, proof-based mathematics, and developing mathematical reasoning skills. It is designed for students with a strong interest in mathematics and who may pursue further studies in mathematics, engineering, or physical sciences. Mathematics Applications and Interpretation (AI): This course focuses on applying mathematics to real-world contexts and problem-solving. It is designed for students more inclined towards practical applications of mathematics and may be interested in fields such as social sciences, economics, or humanities.
