International Baccalaureate. (or A-Levels)

Did anyone get their grades yesterday for the January Modules?

I'm in my final year of A levels. I just got my retakes back from January. In my Russia AS unit, I originally got a U and now I have an A. I was pretty impressed. I didn't do as well as I wanted to in my Spanish though :/

On the IB, I have a friend who does IB at a different school and she says it's a lot of work. Even though you don't have any coursework (which would suit me), you do a lot more subjects over a wider range and it includes core subjects. If I was in year 11 now, I would consider doing it but I'm in year 13 and after this June, I will never have to go to school again.

fuck-shit:

Yeah.
I got 4As. 100% in my politics exam which I think is a total error but I'm not complaining. xD

I've chosen the IB. I'm looking forward to it, in a terrified, no social life anymore, kind of way :XD

A lot of my friends are in IB classes and I'm thinking about it. Harvard (I don't even want to go to Harvard anymore but at the moment all my classes are the one's they've told me to take) told me that I didn't have to take it, because they're pretty happy with the school I'm attending at the moment but I just want to be sure, y'know? And taking IB classes would make me feel more secure about my future.

Does anyone have any suggestions for IB classes? I already have a faltered social life just because I'm so obsessive when it comes to making good grades. (Which is absolutely hilarious because I'm such a large procrastinator.) Anyway, anyone have suggestions? For example, (I don't keep a schedule) would a schedule be a high necessity?

Mmm, I think I'll go down to the school on Monday. :coffee:

C in Psychology, not far off a B
Kind of disappointed but I didn't revise for it, I had family/friends/Ryan down for Christmas so I guess I'll have to pull through in May :tehe:

It really isn't that bad. I have literally maybe 30 minutes of homework every other night, and my GPA is a 3.93. It's easy. I promise.

I'm doing the IB next year, I can't wait :mrgreen: I didn't think I was going to be allowed on the course because I'm already doing a National Diploma but they let me on.
I went to a taster day at my college and I really enjoyed it, I'm looking forward to september now.

A lot of my friends are doing the IBD. Actually like half of my grade is taking IBD. The rest are taking either AP/IB mix or APs. I'm taking a mix so my IB classes are Spanish ab initio and Visual Arts HLA (the school doesn't offer HLB or SLB).

I did the IB program in high school and I ended up getting my diploma with 33 points overall. Completely bombed my Extended Essay, but I passed, regardless. It was a good experience.
