IB Diploma prep is a long road — it's easier with someone beside you. Add a partner and keep each other honest.
The IB spreads assessment across six subjects plus TOK and the Extended Essay, so workload management is the real test.
One tip that works: Give every subject a fixed weekly slot, however small — IB punishes letting any one subject go dark for weeks.
Live 'Studying' badges show when your partner is working — and when they're not.
One synced focus/break clock for your whole prep group.
Friendly competition over who logged more prep hours this week.
Nudge a partner who's slipping — and let them nudge you.
Long preparations fail from inconsistency, not lack of ability. A partner who sees your daily activity makes skipping harder — the same reason gym partners work.
It helps but isn't required — streaks, leaderboards and activity feeds create accountability even asynchronously.
Yes — groups support many members, with attendance tracking and rankings built in.
