IB Computer Science SL — The Parts That Are Not in the Other Papers
The 30% of IB Computer Science SL that no other exam course covers. The internal assessment as a project with a mark scheme: criteria A to E, measurable success criteria, and the evidence discipline criterion D actually pays for. Object-oriented programming as the papers assess it, with class diagrams read and drawn. Machine learning at SL depth, with the training-and-test split demonstrated in runnable code. The pre-seen case study, and Paper 2's rules — including the questions that ban the built-in functions your habits lean on.

Briefing
An IB Computer Science SL student is examined on three things a GCSE or IGCSE course never touches, and they are worth more than half the grade. The internal assessment alone is 30%, it is marked against five published criteria, and it is finished before the exam room opens. Object-oriented programming is core. So is machine learning. A learner who prepares from a Cambridge-shaped course gets a solid 70% of the syllabus and no coverage at all of the part that decides the level 6. This segment is the missing 30%, and only that. It does not teach trace tables, searching, sorting, binary or databases — those live in the other exam segments and are named where you need them. What it does teach: how to write success criteria an examiner can actually mark, and how criterion D's twelve marks are earned across weeks rather than claimed in a final write-up. What a class is, what an object is, and how an inheritance question is marked. What supervised learning actually is, why the test data is held back, and what a model that memorised its training set looks like when it meets a value it has never seen — shown in code you run, not in a diagram. And the two papers themselves: the case study you are given in advance and should annotate to death, and the Paper 2 questions that print *do not use built-in functions* above the answer space. Written against the IB Computer science guide with first assessment in 2027 — the current course, with themes A and B, the computational solution IA and the case study in Paper 1. If you are retaking under the outgoing syllabus in November 2026, the IA discipline, the OOP module and the question technique carry over; the paper-structure notes tell you where your session differs. Every question and scenario in this segment is original, written in the style of IB questions. No past paper, markscheme or subject-guide text is reproduced, and Korra Academy is not affiliated with, or endorsed by, the International Baccalaureate Organization or any exam board.

OOP is core under the current guide, and it is the topic where a Python-trained learner's habits look strongest and score worst. Writing a class that works is not the assessed skill. Saying what a…
