About
About Open Study Circle
Open Study Circle publishes independent notes on studying for the IB Diploma and the Middle Years Programme: revision, exams, results and the subjects students ask about.
Who writes it
A small team of editors writes and updates these notes. We do not run courses, sell revision guides or tutor, and nothing here is paid for.
About this address
Until 2020 this address belonged to a company that ran IB revision courses and hosted teacher and student blogs. That company and its blogs are gone. This site is written by new editors and has no connection with it, with its authors or with the International Baccalaureate Organization. IB and International Baccalaureate are trademarks of the IBO.
Why every note ends with a speaking program
Much of IB assessment is spoken: orals, presentations, discussions and interviews. Each note therefore closes with the full four week program on fear of public speaking, reproduced from fearofpublicspeaking.help.
