IB Math AA IA Grader — Free AI Feedback on Analysis & Approaches

IBLens grades your IB Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches Internal Assessment exploration against the official IB Math rubric — all five criteria — in 60 seconds. Works for both SL and HL. First analysis is free.

Math AA IA: how the rubric works (20 marks)

The IB Math AA IA uses the same five criteria as Math AI. However, examiners apply them with an expectation of more abstract, proof-oriented, or algebraic mathematics for AA students — especially at HL.

• Communication (4 marks): Coherent structure, clear aim, and consistent mathematical notation. Examiners expect AA students to present rigorous mathematical arguments.
• Mathematical Presentation (3 marks): Correct use of variables, formal notation, and mathematical language. For AA, this includes formal proof notation where relevant.
• Personal Engagement (3 marks): Evidence of genuine exploration — your own conjectures, creative approaches, and original insights into the mathematics.
• Reflection (3 marks): Critical evaluation of your mathematical approach, limitations, and possible extensions or generalisations.
• Use of Mathematics (6 marks): For AA, examiners typically expect calculus, proof by induction, complex numbers, or similarly advanced content for HL, and functions, statistics, or geometry for SL.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Math AA IA and Math AI IA?

The rubric is identical, but the expected sophistication differs. Math AA is more focused on pure mathematics (calculus, proof, algebra). Math AI focuses more on applied mathematics (statistics, modelling, real-world problems). See our Math AI IA grader for AI-specific feedback.
