Logarithms: Practice Test 1 (IB AA SL)

Logarithms: Practice Test 1 (IB AA SL)

This resource is for IB AA SL students who lose marks on logarithms because they apply rules mechanically under exam pressure.

It is a no-calculator practice test designed for students who are early in their understanding of logarithms and need to strengthen conceptual foundations before speed or complexity.

The test focuses on understanding logarithmic structure, including:

• evaluating logarithms as “finding the exponent”
• using addition, subtraction, and power rules
• rewriting between logarithmic and exponential form
• solving simple logarithmic equations

The style and layout closely follow IB AA SL Paper 1.

Each question targets a specific logarithm idea, with worked solutions that model clear, step-by-step IB-style reasoning.

What’s included

• 1 full practice test (36 marks, 6 questions)
• Suggested time: 35–40 minutes
• Complete, step-by-step worked solutions

Suitable for revision, assessment, homework, or cover lessons.
