Frequently asked questions

Short answers about this page.

Which French B SL exam sessions are covered for 1.1 Identities?

11 exam sessions from 2023 to 2025, the latest November 2025. Every Paper 1 in every timezone is read and classified in full, which gives 5 papers in this archive.

Which 1.1 Identities topic comes up most?

Health & well-being (1.1.2): in 19% of papers, last seen Nov 25 P1 TZ1. Usually "write", worth about 30 marks in a paper that includes it.

Can I see the original question and mark scheme?

No. The wording belongs to the IB. You get the citation, the marks, the command term and the skill tested, plus our own matched practice questions with worked answers and AI marking.

What do "banker", "due" and "rising" mean?

Banker: examined in at least one sitting in four and still appearing. Due: regular before, but absent for the last two exam sessions. Rising: clearly more common in the last two years. Our classification of real papers, not an IB statistic.

What is free and what needs Pro?
