On Sunday, Jan 25th, we were alerted to out-of-date text on our May Exam Sessions page – this text was written for the May 2020 exam session and had been erroneously cached within Google Search Results.

We sincerely apologize for any confusion that this may have caused and have cross-checked all our Exams Guidance across QuickStart Guides, in-app Guidance, and Help tutorials.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
Several Reddit & Twitter threads have implied that May 2021 exams were cancelled – this is false and inaccurate. Please do not rely on Reddit or Twitter for your IB exams guidance.

The May 2021 exams are still planned to proceed, we have no information to suggest any cancellation.

All official information regarding the May 2021 exam session, as well as all other official news surrounding the IB, will always be found on the IBO.org website.

We will continue to communicate exam updates for IB Diploma and Career-related programme students through the ManageBac Blog, here are additional FAQs and resources, which you can save & bookmark:
