Free revision cheatsheets for every IB Mathematics: Analysis & Approaches SL topic. AA SL is examined on Papers 1 (no calculator) and 2 (GDC) — no Paper 3. Each cheatsheet below opens the shared, IB-examiner-written page where the SL sections are clearly tagged, with formulas, worked examples, common traps and an exam-attack plan.

AA SL covers roughly the first 70% of the AA HL syllabus and is assessed on Papers 1 and 2 only — there is no Paper 3. Compared with HL, SL drops the AHL extensions: complex numbers, vectors, proof by induction, partial fractions, Maclaurin series, L'Hôpital's rule and the harder differential equations. Every cheatsheet on this hub is the same page an HL student uses, but each section is labelled SL or AHL — so you read only the SL-tagged parts and skip the rest. Prefer the full higher-level set? Browse the AA HL cheatsheet hub.
