The student clearly identifies the chosen title, "Are visual representations always helpful in the communication of knowledge? Discuss with reference to the human sciences and mathematics," at the beginning of the TOK essay and maintains focus on it throughout. However, the essay does not consistently sustain its focus on the concept of "helpful" versus "necessary," which leads to some digressions and misapplications of examples, particularly regarding the human sciences. While the student provides real-life examples and considers various implications and counterpoints, there are issues with the logical flow of arguments and the relevance of some examples. Nonetheless, the essay is well-organized, critical, and argumentative, effectively acknowledging and referencing external sources.
