The International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme (DP) assesses Physics SL through:
* Internal Assessments (IA): These are practical investigations and written reports conducted throughout the course.
* External Assessments: This consists of two papers:
* Paper 1: Multiple choice questions covering all topics.
* Paper 2: Extended response questions, including data analysis and problem-solving.
Both papers are graded and combined to determine the final grade for IB Physics SL.
