IB German B Predicted Topics 2026

No — they are data-driven forecasts from our own analysis of past German B papers, not leaked or official IB material. They show which themes and text types have historically appeared most often so you can prioritise; the real exam can draw on any of the five prescribed themes.

Because a language course is not split into numbered topics, we rank by theme and text type rather than by syllabus chapter. We count how often each prescribed theme has framed past Paper 1 tasks and Paper 2 texts, weight it by the marks awarded, and surface the text types (email, blog, article, opinion piece, speech) and Paper 2 question techniques — multiple choice, true/false with justification, gap-fill, matching, and short answer — that recur most.

Start with the highest-frequency themes and build a word bank for each — learning every noun with its gender so cases come naturally — then rehearse the conventions and register of the text types that come up most for Paper 1. For Paper 2, drill the recurring question techniques — read the questions first and listen or read for meaning rather than matching words. Use the ranking to sequence revision, not to skip themes, since any of the five can appear.
