I know I'm asking this a year earlier than I should be but can anyone tell me the difference between question banks and Past papers? I know past papers are the actual tests administered by the IB but are question banks a collection of the questions? Or are they just practice questions made up by the teacher as a review of sorts?

Should I purchase past papers or will having some question banks suffice?The questions in the question banks are actually taken from past papers, so yep they are technically the same thing. However, as far as I know, the latest version of the question banks is the third edition, which only contains questions from very old exams (i.e.
It will not contain questions for the new syllabus). So it would be good if you try to get hold of more recent exam papers (for example, since your exam is in May 2016, it might be good to get May/Nov 2014 and May/Nov 2015 papers).
Use these together with the questions banks, and you'll be fine. One more thing, if i'm not mistaken, there are no question banks for language or social science subjects (e.g. English, history, philosophy, etc).PS: somewhere out there in the internet, there will always be people who'd like to share things for free. And perhaps Googlebot can crawl them out. I know I'm asking this a year earlier than I should be but can anyone tell me the difference between question banks and Past papers?

That is, if I'm not mixing my class with the 2016 one. I know I'm asking this a year earlier than I should be but can anyone tell me the difference between question banks and Past papers?
