The TOK assessment consists of a TOK essay worth 67% of your grade and a TOK exhibition weighs 33% of your grade.
Points needed | |||
|---|---|---|---|
Grade | TOK Essay | TOK Exhibition | Final |
E | 0-1 | 0-1 | 0-3 |
D | 2-3 | 2-3 | 4-9 |
C | 4-5 | 4-5 | 10-15 |
B | 6-7 | 6-7 | 16-21 |
A | 8-10 | 8-10 | 22-30 |
The final score is calculated by considering both the TOK essay and exhibition, but they are weighted differently. The TOK essay is worth 67% of your final grade, and the TOK exhibition is worth 33%. This means your essay score will have a bigger impact on your final grade. To get the total final score, the essay and exhibition scores are combined based on these percentages, which is why they don’t always add up to exactly 30. For example, if you score well on your essay but not as well on your exhibition, your final score will still reflect the heavier weight of the essay score.
We hope that this guide will help you in planning your TOK essay and exhibition writing. For more guidance check out our blog post on TOK exhibition prompts. Also, make sure to visit Clastify for tons of free TOK essay and TOK exhibition examples. Good luck!
