IB Diploma Programme Results

At the International School of Berne (ISBerne), we are pleased to share the achievements of our International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme students for the May 2025 examination session:

• Cohort size: 33 students
• Average score: 32.0 points (out of a maximum of 45)
• Global average: 30.58 points
• Bilingual diplomas awarded: 5

Our students consistently perform above the global average, reflecting their commitment, the support of our teachers, and the strength of our programme.

Most importantly, the majority of our students successfully move on to their preferred higher education pathways in Switzerland and internationally.

Standardised Testing

ISBerne is not a test centre for the Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT) nor the American College Testing (ACT). Students will need to make independent arrangements outside of school to take these examinations. Opportunities are limited to take the ACT in Switzerland.

Given the variety of mother-tongue languages, cultures, scholastic backgrounds, and destinations of our students, we do not use standardised tests nor are students exposed or accustomed to multiple choice testing.
