Being way off may hurt you but different interpretation can give you creativity points or for that matter they may have you redo the question

Sometimes things like that happen and you feel like you screwed everything up. But I know a guy who couldn't enrol at a uni he wanted just because he was a single point short in total amount of points needed. He decided to pick a completely different subject and in following years he found a thing he loves in that field. So all went better than expected :D If a plan fails, just try something else without resentment. It might work out even better. Keep your chin up

Well, as long as you did well on the other questions, you should be fine. Good luck OP

Hopefully your well thought out and brilliant essay will dazzle the grader long enough to make him/her forget what the question was also

Paper 2 today, you ready?

read d question well next time.. or ur future wont be d same as u determined.

I'm sorry for you, OP. I did the IB exam as well today. Kept frantically checking if I really understood the question. Which question did you choose?

They blocked Facebook in China but not FML? But that's Western influence! (Go ahead and hate)

Good luck guys!

That's called "Bedazzle them with Bullshit". If you read the question right, you wudda made shit up anyway
