Be honest: can someone score 777 across Physics, Chemistry, Math AA HLs WITHOUT natural talent if they work extremely hard?
Just like the title asks.
If someone did not possess any natural talent (like, even below average) for mathematics and science, yet they chose Physics, Chemistry and Math AA as their Higher Level subjects, will they be able to reliably score 7s in those subjects if they absolutely maximize hardwork, discipline and the environment?
Say, their ultimate target is to score ≥80% in raw marks in the final exams (which would be a guaranteed 7 in Physics and Math AA and almost always a 7 in Chem).
Just for the mentioned HL exams alone, the student chooses to dedicate this much effort:
6 hours a day every single day (on average) for 6 straight years.
And as for their starting level, they were already operating at the level of mid-high 6 (just 3-5% away from a 7) across all three of the HL subjects.
Assume that during the 6 years of preparation, they will have access to the best resources, the best study methods, the best mentors/tutors, the best home environment, the best nutrition, and will never lose motivation nor ever get burned out.
Also assume that their IA marks are already pre-determined at:
15/20 for Math AA
20/24 for Chem
20/24 for Physics
so it is only the final written exams that they'll have to worry about.
The question is, CAN the person in this scenario score ≥80% in the HL Math AA, Chemistry and Physics exams?
Feel free to be brutally honest.
