IB extended essay

<p>Anyone willing to share what their extended essay topic was on or will be on?</p>

<p>Yay, I get to start my EE soon (rising junior.) I think that I want mine to be related to psychology.</p>

<p>Mine is going to be on aggression (psychology)</p>

<p>Mine was on Christian allegory and symbolism is Faulkner's light in August (English A1). I also know people who have done theirs on: Aboriginal art, grafitti, Turkish social politics, Mao, and internet networking sites...among other things. Though at my school, History is overwhelmingly the most popular subject area.</p>

<p>The biggest piece of advice I can give (not that you asked) is to make sure your topic fits in a subject area! You can write the best essay in the world, but if it doesn't fit the criteria, you'll do poorly. Oh, and don't procrastinate.</p>

<p>hey listen everyone...do a science ee</p>

<p>after you do research, you just write paper about your data and theories and stuff, and it's less likely you will be plagarizing some obscure idea (like in history or psych or something)</p>

<p>the thing is, though, science EE's are generally hard to get good grades...</p>

<p>No, actually, EE's are generally hard to get good grades in.</p>

<p>^^Yeah, and they tend to be a weak point for my school...gosh, I just can't wait until July 6th!</p>

<p>My IB coordinator has a binder with all the EEs from previous years that earned As. Considering that my school's been an IB school since 1992, with about 15 candidates per year, the binder isn't very full.</p>

<p>My EE was about the effect of Harry Truman's post-WWII foreign policy on American policy in the 1950s. Just make sure you pick a topic you're interested in, which shouldn't be too hard considering you can write on almost anything. If you don't do well, you can try to make up the points in TOK, but in my opinion the TOK paper's way harder to write than EE. TOK orals are ok.</p>
