The History IA is a 2200-word investigation you choose, a real deep dive into one narrow question, like ‘Why did Goan bakers favour coconut vinegar over palm in the 19th century?’. Structure is everything: introduction, investigation, reflection, sources. I’ve seen brilliant IAs on spice routes fail because they were just stories, not arguments. My life says forget grand topics—the best ones come from what’s around you, the history in your own kitchen. I helped a boy write a stunning IA on the evolution of the ‘fish thali’ as a socio-political document after he spent a week here at my stall, listening to my old customers argue about their grandmothers’ recipes.
