The European Baccalaureate is the school-leaving qualification of the European Schools and of schools accredited by their Board of Governors. The name belongs solely to the European Schools, which have held a monopoly on its use in all official languages of the European Union since their establishment. The cycle covers the final two secondary years, s6 and s7, and is built on a comprehensive multilingual curriculum: pupils combine language, humanities and scientific subjects, with part of the programme taught through more than one language. This page addresses the Mathematics course taught at 3 periods per week, the lighter of the two mathematics options in the compulsory core, where pupils choose either Mathematics 3 periods or Mathematics 5 periods. Topics on this exam: Written examinations (L1, L2 and Mathematics compulsory; five written papers in total), Oral examinations (L1, L2 or a subject taught through L2 - History or Geography; three oral papers in total), and Preliminary mark from S7 formative (A marks) and summative (Pre-Baccalaureate examination B marks) assessment.
