    No, top 6 of any combination.

    I didn't use it in my top 6.

    They're thinking of the bonus points for HL maths. If your points in maths WITH the bonus points added on is in your top 6, you count it. If not, you don't. If you don't count maths in your top 6, you don't randomly get the 25 points added on to your points.

    I thought maybe that was where the confusion was coming from though, a lot of people were confused about that.

    It's not.
    A course may require a certain level of Maths, but that is a separate issue.
