Course Description
IMPORTANT UPDATE as of Feb 15th, 2023:
Due to too few interested students to participate at our “in-person” Final IB Revision Camp in Vienna this spring, this course will now run VIRTUALLY only. We look forward to receiving many more sign-ups to our excellent zoom-powered online IB Exam preparation Course.
Dates: April 3-12, 2023
Our online IB exam revision workshops are all led by the same superb IB faculty as our on-ground workshops and we are extremely proud to say that our IB finalists in 2020, 2021 and 2022 received top results.
Our virtual IB Revision sessions run for 2.5 days (=18 hrs) per IB subject. Like in 2020, 2021 & 2022, we will do our best to accommodate as many different timezones as possible, including Europe, Africa, Middle East & Asia.
We look forward to supporting you with your exceptional IB exam preparation!

PLEASE NOTE:
We are still facing some unpredictability in 2022/2023.
To offer our spring Final IB Exam Revision Course 2023 as an “on-campus” programme on-ground in Vienna, we need all interested students support and please SIGN UP as soon as possible and if possible no later than Feb 15th, 2023. Only with your timely support and enough interest will we be able to offer our renowned exam preparation “on-ground”.
PLAN B: In the case that we have too few sign-ups to make our on-campus experience viable, our spring course will be offered by the same superb faculty online via Zoom. A final decision will be communicated on February 20th.
Our online IB revision workshops would be led by the same superb longstanding IBWISE faculty as our on-campus workshops and we are extremely proud to say that we received top scores from our large international 2020, 2021 & 2022 virtual IB students.
Our virtual IB Revision sessions would run for 2.5 days (=18 hrs) per IB subject. Like in 2020, 2021 & 2022, we will do our best to accommodate as many different timezones as possible, including Europe, Africa, Middle East & Asia.
Quote from two of our online – IB revision course participants: “This year, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, IBWISE had to switch to online IB revision workshops. It worked out great even though I didn’t get to meet my teachers face-to-face! My advice to IB students is to not be intimidated by “online” as IBWISE has it completely down!”
“This was the perfect course for me. I think the teacher helped me raise my grade with at least 2 points. And, what I loved about the course was the non stop encouragement and support provided by my teacher.” Charlotte, Dubai.
