International School History - International Baccalaureate - History Extended Essays - Examples

The opportunity to write an Extended essay in history is one of the great opportunities in the IB programme and what sets it apart from many other educational programmes. The following examples are taken from those that I have supervised over the last 20 years. These were mostly awarded 'A' grades and a significant number were awarded the full 36 marks.

If you have produced an 'A' grade Extended Essay and would like to share it here, send me an email at this address.
