How these numbers are made
Past papers, tagged by hand
Every question from the last five examination sessions is tagged to its syllabus topic by two independent reviewers; disagreements go to a third.
What the percentage means
"92%" means the topic carried marks in 92% of papers sampled — presence, not weight. A topic can appear rarely but heavily; read the bars alongside your subject guide.
Frequency is not a syllabus
The IB can examine anything in the guide, and syllabus updates reset history. Use this to order your revision queue — never to skip a topic.
