Quick answer

Is IB MYP Sciences a good fit for middle school students in Grades 6-8?

IB MYP Sciences is a good fit for students in grades 6-8 who are interested in designing experiments and interpreting science data. CIT offers online or in-person lessons in Apgujeong, Gangnam, Seoul, in one-to-one or small-group formats. Students make criterion-based practice tasks with scores and revised experiment designs and data interpretations.

In IB MYP Sciences, each school sets the biology, chemistry, and physics content in its own unit plans, and student work is assessed against four criteria (A to D): knowing and understanding, inquiring and designing, processing and evaluating, and reflecting on the impacts of science. A short diagnostic of the unit the student is studying at school sets the starting point, and each criterion is practiced with tasks and written answers that are reviewed and improved. Alongside the score, the student builds the academic evidence an application can use: how they applied a core idea, why an answer failed, and how they revised it.

My child loved that the teacher explained things really well and made the lesson enjoyable. We are very glad too.

A short diagnostic review sets the starting point.

Progress depends on regular practice and acting on feedback.

What will my child learn?

  1. Explain scientific knowledge and apply it to problems in unfamiliar situations.
  2. Write an inquiry question and hypothesis and design an experiment that controls variables.
  3. Process data into tables and graphs, interpret the results, and judge whether the method was valid.
  4. Explain with evidence how science affects society, the environment, and ethical questions.

Which units does the official course cover?

  1. 1
    Knowing and Understanding

    Criterion A: explain science concepts in accurate terms and solve problems in familiar and unfamiliar situations.

  2. 2
    Inquiring and Designing

    Criterion B: write an inquiry question and hypothesis, choose variables, and design a fair method.

  3. 3
    Processing and Evaluating

    Criterion C: process collected data into tables and graphs and evaluate the conclusion and the method.

  4. 4
    Reflecting on the Impacts of Science

    Criterion D: explain the uses and limits of science and its social and environmental effects with evidence.

What counts as useful evidence?

Criterion-based practice tasks with scores and revised experiment designs and data interpretations.

What should an admissions reader be able to see?

Alongside the score, the student builds the academic evidence an application can use: how they applied a core idea, why an answer failed, and how they revised it.

Useful evidence may include a reproducible analysis, research notebook, scientific explanation, or tested model. The student must be able to explain the work and its limits.

The evidence an application reads is what the student understood, completed, and can explain.

At first my child did not want to go, because it was a weekend class. After the lesson they said it had been fun. Hearing that they ask about anything they do not understand and take part on their own put me at ease as a parent.
