The IA task is the same for SL and HL. HL-only topics are taught at HL; check with Mr. Coleman before relying on one.
Your IA must be your own work. IA Studio helps you plan, check, and organize, but it never writes any part of your IA. Always follow the IB Business Management Guide and your school's academic integrity rules, including rules about AI tools. If you are unsure, ask Mr. Coleman.
This is a study aid, not the official IB guide. Check the IB Business Management Guide for the official criteria, level descriptors, and rules, including what counts toward the word count.
