IB vs A-Level：Confused about the differences between IB Diploma and A-Level? We break down 6 core comparison points clearly for you!

IB consists of a fixed set of 6 subjects with 3 HL and 3 SL, featuring a rigid structure that requires a compulsory mix of arts and sciences. It mandates CAS extracurricular hours, a mandatory extended essay (EE) and Internal Assessment (IA) for research and writing, uses a total scoring system out of 45 including 42 subject points and 3 core points, and requires a minimum total of 24 points plus completed core components to pass.

A-Level usually involves 3 to 4 subjects with fully flexible subject combinations enabling deep specialisation in a single discipline. It has no compulsory extracurricular activities, only optional coursework for certain subjects instead of universal core writing tasks, adopts a tiered grading scale such as A* and A, and assesses each subject separately without an overall total passing score requirement.
