I scored 32/34 on my
Extended Essay.

Not because I was naturally amazing at it, but because I figured out the system.

"If you're stressed about your EE, I get it. I was in that exact spot. The difference is you have something I didn't: a clear system from someone who just did this, got the A, and knows what actually helps."

The problem

Like most IB students, I started my EE with no idea what I was doing. Six subjects, IAs piling up, college applications — and a 4,000-word research paper that felt impossible. My school gave me a supervisor and three meetings. That was it.

The system

So I built my own process. A research method I call the EE Dump. I reverse-engineered the IB criteria so every section targeted specific marks. I figured out which advice from my supervisor to take — and which to politely ignore.

The result

Predicted a C. Finished with an A and 32 out of 34. And I didn't even proofread.

The realisation

Once the EE was over, I almost sold my essay on Clastify for $7. Then I realised my essay itself wasn't the valuable part. The process behind it was. A student can read my essay and still have no idea how to build their own. But if I showed them exactly how I approached the research, structure, writing, and strategy, that would actually help.

The resource lab

So instead of selling fish for $7, I built a free resource lab that teaches you how to fish. This isn't a textbook written by a professor who hasn't been an IB student in 20 years. It's a system built by someone who was in your exact position recently enough to remember what actually helped and what was useless noise.

The tools

I ran my own essay through one of the most advanced AI models in the world and wrote honest commentary — including where the AI was wrong and where I'd do things differently. I built the tools I wish I had: an interactive research workspace, a source tracker, a study calendar, and a timeline planner that works backwards from your deadline. Because PDFs collect dust. Tools get used.

32

out of 34

An A, built on a system instead of guesswork. The same process now turned into modules, tools, and commentary so you can follow what works without reinventing everything yourself.

If this sounds like you, you're not behind, you're missing a system.

You're not stuck because you're lazy. You're stuck because nobody has shown you exactly what examiners reward and exactly how to get there. So you spin:

You don't actually know if your research question can score, and you're scared to find out three weeks in.

You're writing, but you can't tell if it's real analysis or just describing things.

You've read the criteria. You still don't really know what an examiner wants.

You keep doing work and still feel behind.

Every "EE tip" online contradicts the last one.

You're terrified of building the whole thing on the wrong structure.

You don't need more random advice. You need one clear system where every move maps to the markscheme. That's the entire point of this.

How it works

Three things. Everything else sits underneath them.

Most EE help is either a vague PDF or a $100-an-hour tutor. This is a system, three moving parts that take you from blank page to a draft that actually scores.

From blank page to structured draft

From blank page to structured draft, week by week.

A 14-lesson path that turns a far-off deadline into this week's three tasks. The Research Question Checker stops you sinking weeks into a question that can't break a C. The EE Planner breaks the whole essay into weekly targets, so you always know your next move instead of drifting.

Everything maps to the markscheme. You're never guessing what “good” means, you're matching your essay to the exact thing examiners score. That's the difference between hoping for an A and engineering one.

From a student

“I think the one thing that the site helped me with is understanding what I'm actually being scored for.”

From the founder

“We rarely understand what we're actually being scored on, and the EE is the most misunderstood part of the IB. If someone handed you the ingredients and the tools and said ‘make a cake’, you still couldn't. You need the recipe: how much of what, in what order, at what temperature. That's what separates most students from an A. You already have the idea. You have the ingredients. Our aim is to hand you the recipe.”
— The Founder · 32/34 Extended Essay, final A

Built from a real 32/34 Extended Essay

The Extended Essay Academy is built from the exact system that took a real Extended Essay to 32 out of 34, a final A. It isn't a faceless essay mill and it isn't recycled advice scraped off the internet. It's the resource we wished existed when the deadline was closing in and the document was still blank.

The only way you lose is by not starting.

Go through the system. Use the tools on your actual essay. If it doesn't genuinely make your EE clearer, stronger, and easier to finish, email us within 30 days and we'll refund every cent. No forms, no questions, no awkward follow-up. The risk is ours, not yours.

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers before you start following the system.

Can I start for free?

Yes, your first missions are free and you don't need a card. Unlock the full system whenever you're ready.

Do you write the essay for me?

No. This is a self-study system, we teach you how to research, structure, and write it yourself. Every word stays yours. That's the whole point: examiners can tell when it isn't, and so can you.

Is it built for the current IB syllabus?

Yes, everything maps to the current EE assessment criteria.

How fast can I improve?

Most students find their essay gets clearer within the first few modules, because you stop guessing and start matching the markscheme. How far you go depends on your effort, but you'll never again wonder what “good” actually looks like.

What if I'm completely out of time?

Start with the 1-Day Protocol. It's built for exactly that, the highest-impact fixes when the deadline is tomorrow.
