Finishing the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB DP) is no small achievement. Between Higher Level and Standard Level subjects, Internal Assessments, the Extended Essay (EE), Theory of Knowledge (TOK) and CAS, IB students spend two years building knowledge, developing critical thinking skills and producing an enormous amount of original study material. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
If you’ve completed the IB Diploma Programme, there’s a good chance your folders are full of carefully prepared revision notes, summaries, flashcards, essay plans and topic guides that helped you along the way. Instead of leaving them on your laptop after graduation, why not let them continue helping future IB students while earning extra income?
Your Notes Are More Valuable Than You Think
Every IB student studies differently, but one thing rarely changes. Students appreciate learning from someone who has already been through the programme.
A well-organised Biology summary, an Economics revision guide, Mathematics worked examples or a collection of History essay structures can save another student hours of preparation. Resources created by former IB students often explain concepts in a way that’s practical, relatable and easy to understand.
Those are exactly the kinds of resources students search for before mock exams, final examinations and major assessment deadlines.
What Can You Upload?
Studylast welcomes original educational resources created by students themselves. Depending on what you studied, you might upload:
- Subject revision notes
- Topic summaries
- Formula sheets
- Worked examples
- Essay planning guides
- Revision checklists
- Mind maps
- Flashcards you created
- Study planners
- Personal exam preparation guides
Clear PDF documents with logical formatting, headings and diagrams generally provide the best experience for buyers.
A Few Things You Shouldn’t Upload
The IB places significant importance on academic integrity, and so do we.
Only upload resources that you personally created. Official IB examination papers, markschemes, copyrighted textbooks, teacher materials or content that belongs to someone else should never be uploaded. Your own explanations, summaries and revision notes are exactly what students are looking for.
If you’re unsure about what the IB expects regarding academic honesty, it’s worth reviewing the guidance published by the International Baccalaureate. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
Small Resources Often Become Best Sellers
Many people assume they need hundreds of pages before sharing their work. That’s rarely true.
Sometimes a concise Chemistry formula guide, a Mathematics AI revision sheet or an ESS topic summary is more useful than a lengthy document because students can review it quickly before class or an examination.
If your notes helped you understand a difficult topic, they will probably help someone else too.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I upload notes for individual IB subjects?
Absolutely. Many students look for resources for specific subjects such as Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, Economics, Business Management, Psychology or English rather than an entire programme.
Do my notes have to cover the whole syllabus?
No. High quality notes covering a single topic can still be valuable if they are well organised and clearly explained.
Can handwritten notes be uploaded?
Yes, provided they are neat, easy to read and scanned clearly into a PDF.
Is it free to start selling?
Yes. Creating a seller account and uploading your original study resources on Studylast is completely free.
