IB Predicted Grades Process
At Nido de Aguilas, the University IB Predicted Grade Process requires the collaboration between IB teachers, the IB coordinator, university counselors and the student. Each stakeholder shares interrelated roles and responsibilities, which are always grounded in best practice around giving students multiple university options. Teachers base PGs on IB assessments and other objective data. The expectation is that there is clarity and transparency for everyone in regards to the method of determining PGs in each course.
The following flowchart models the procedure.
June. PG1: University Pre-Predicted Grades
After the May Mock Exam Session, teachers project grades for grade 11 IB students. These PGs are not sent to universities, but are used as a guide to help students narrow their university lists. Grades are shared with students in TOK class before the end of the school year.
October Predicted Grade 2: University Predicted Grades
By October 1, teachers update the predicted grades.
October - December: Students can set a goal with their teacher to improve their learning in IB. October- December is the time that students work on academic improvements and Predicted Grades could be sent to universities during this time on a rolling basis depending on University timelines.
December Predicted Grade 3: Updated University Predicted Grades
By December 7, teachers will make the final update of University Predicted Grades. The November Mock Examination Session will contribute to the calculation of the final University PG. These scores are sent if/when requested by a university.
April: IB Predicted Grades
At this time the IB Predicted Grades are only sent to IB. These predicted grades are the most accurate as they are based on the full body of work of the student. There is no impact to the Final University Predicted Grades retroactively as those predictions have already been sent to universities.
