The IBDP (International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme) is a reputed two-year programme for secondary school students between 16 and 18 years of age that prepares them for university and beyond.
When the IBDP exam results are announced each year, there is a great deal of excitement among students, parents and teachers. The results showcase students’ and teachers’ hard work and dedication to excellence. In addition, prestigious universities around the world use the IBDP results when evaluating college applications.
As the IB Diploma offers a solid pathway to advanced study and makes students future-ready, we’re incredibly excited about our students’ results, announced on 6th July 2022. Families who would like their children to study at a top university should consider an international school like GIIS (Global Indian International School), which offers an excellent IB Diploma programme in Singapore.
Examining the 2022 IBDP Results
This year, in Singapore, over 1,700 students from 30 local and international schools took the IBDP. At a minimum, students must achieve 23 points to earn an IB Diploma, while a perfect score is 45 points. Not surprisingly, Singapore’s average score of 37.49 exceeds the global average of 31.98.
Likewise, GIIS students who took the IBDP in May 2022 received outstanding scores. The school’s average of 38.6 exceeded Singapore’s average, continuing a trend of excellent results for more than a decade. Additionally, 10 of our students scored a perfect 45 and earned World Topper status, while 16 students scored a near-perfect 44, and 81 students — or 52% of the cohort — earned 40 or more points. We celebrate these results as they demonstrate the excellence of our students and school.

Benefits of the IBDP
The IBDP curriculum includes 6 subject groups: Sciences, Mathematics, Arts, Language and Literature, Language Acquisition and Individuals and Societies, plus three core components: Theory of Knowledge, Extended Essay and Creativity, Activity, and Service (CAS). The IB programme helps students to ask questions, cultivate curiosity and creativity, research extensively, solve problems and think critically.
The programme also promotes international mindedness and cultural awareness, which equips students to engage, collaborate and work with diverse people in our rapidly changing world.
