Krav til vitnemål for elever som velger IB:

Students take written examinations at the end of the programme. Students also complete assessment tasks during the last year of school. Assessment is partly done by external examiners.

The points on the Diploma is made up by adding all six subject grades plus points on the core subjects (not more than 3 points). A grade in a subject (1-7) is made up by

  1. Internal Assessment IA (around 25 %) and
  2. External Assessment EA (around 75 %).

 

The IB Diploma is awarded to students that meet the following requirements,

  1. The candidate has not received a penalty for academic misconduct from the Final Award Committee.
  2. The candidate’s total points are 24 or more.
  3. The Core requirement must be met
  4. There is no grade 1 awarded in a subject/level.

University access

In Norway, the IB Diploma is valued as an equivalent to the Norwegian system.

Access to Norwegian Universities without the Diploma: A certificate with 20 or more points can give access to open studies at Norwegian universities if all other requirements are met. For more information, see www.samordnaopptak.no under the section “utenlandsk utdanning”. Please note that universities in Norway also have language requirements (English and Norwegian).
