Theory of Knowledge — Your Gateway to 3 Bonus Points
Theory of Knowledge (TOK) is a core component of the IB Diploma Programme worth up to 3 bonus points — the difference between a 42 and a 45. It challenges you to reflect on the nature of knowledge across different Areas of Knowledge (AOKs).
TOK is assessed through two components: the TOK Essay (externally assessed, 1600 words) and the TOK Exhibition (internally assessed, 3 objects + 950 words).
TOK Grade Boundaries
Combined with EE: max 3 bonus points from TOK+EE together.

Our Results
Scores that speak for themselves.
I went from a predicted 36 to scoring 43 in my final exams. IBZENITH's approach is unlike anything I had encountered before.
The 1-on-1 sessions with my tutor completely transformed how I understood organic chemistry. I owe my Oxford offer to this team.
Booking was effortless, the tutor matched my learning style perfectly, and my IA went from a 12 to a 20. Genuinely remarkable.
