What Marksy checks for each English Literature IO criterion

You get a mark for each IB assessment criterion below. The points under each one are what Marksy looks for in your draft. See the mark bands

Criterion A: Knowledge, understanding and interpretation

10 marks
  • Claims show knowledge of both extracts and their wider works or bodies of work.
  • Interpretations are relevant to the global issue and supported by precise references.
  • Connections between the texts and the global issue are developed rather than asserted.

Criterion B: Analysis and evaluation

10 marks
  • The speaker identifies specific authorial or creator choices.
  • Analysis explains effects and significance instead of naming techniques only.
  • The treatment of both works is sufficiently detailed and balanced.

Criterion C: Focus and organization

10 marks
  • The introduction establishes a usable global issue and route through the oral.
  • Transitions make relationships between extracts, wider works, and claims clear.
  • Time and emphasis are distributed purposefully across both texts.

Criterion D: Language

10 marks
  • Vocabulary and sentence choices communicate analytical ideas precisely.
  • Register and tone stay suitable for a formal oral.
  • Errors or hesitation do not repeatedly obstruct meaning.

Your draft stays at the centre

Marksy reads the work you upload, points each comment back to your writing, and puts the most important changes first.
