Hi! II am from Calderstone in grade 8. I am trying to get into IB in Turner Fenton SS. How were your grades in grade 7 and grade 8. For those who have gotten in, was there something that you think made you gain an advantage? Also how can I prepare for the essay? For my grade 7 report card, my average was 88% and all E's. My PE mark was only 75% and I'm scared if that might affect my chance to get in. I'm worried about my grade 8 progress report card as I have REALLY strict teachers this year and I'm sure I wont get all E's or all progressing very wells (maybe even a progressing with difficulty from the worst history teacher EVER). I know these are a lot but I really want…

Hello, I'm taking IB starting next year. I'm planning to take English B, Math, Physics, and History HL with Chemistry and Indonesian A SL, but I'm really confused on what to choose because I have not decided my major in uni yet + I don't like chem at all. Do you think its an idiotic choice or should I go with it? Is it a too hard combination? If you have any experience with this combo, please do tell.

I hope everyone is having an amazing summer! For new students who are eager to learn ahead, here are my flashcards from the school year: https://github.com/ClosedCaptions/HighschoolFlashcards The repository includes all my subjects from grade 9, including the required Pre-IB courses and my electives: music and computer science. I excluded my gym flashcards as it does not have a final exam. I plan to keep updating the repository as I progress through school. If anyone would like to change the formatting to the French flashcards, feel free to edit them and attach the new file under this post. For those who are unfamiliar with Anki, I highly recommend it for s…

Hey, I have the opportunity to start IB in autum at the Felix-Klein-Gymnasium in Göttingen, but I'm not entirely sure if it is a good idea... First of all, I'm a bit sceptical about taking the IB in general, because everybody is just freaking out about how much work it is and how much effort it requires. Secondly, I heard that the chances of getting into University aren't much better if you have completed IB. Furtermore, the Felix-Klein-Gynmasium has been an IB School only since 2006... I just wanted to kindly ask you to tell me about your opinions regarding this matter: Would you prefer the IB program over the German Abitur ( especially given the fact that I have never t…

Hello people of IBSurvival! I had a question about the Merivale HS waitlist as I am not finding the answer ANYWHERE! Basically, got my IB results on Friday, Feburary 24, 2023. The email said that I was put on the first quarter waiting list. I have an overall average of 91% The email went on and during the end, it said that "If needed, a second round of admissions would occur the week of March 6th." I still didn't get the email. The reason I am writing this is because I have many friends (11) who were on the 1st quarter waiting list and nobody got in. I am wondering if anyone who applied to Merivale HS got in from 1st quarter or if someone applied …

hi! I'm entering the IB next year and am very unsure whether to continue with my plan, as many people have told me it will be too hard. my school is making me take literature and history as HL, and the only math courses it has are Math AA HL and Math AI SL. I'm planning on taking AA HL. I will also do Spanish SL for year 1 and ESS SL for year 2. I also want to take Physics HL, however I'm on the fence about that as it's 4 HLs. I want to go into engineering and I really love and am good at math and physics, I have a 4.0 right now, although take that with a grain of salt because my school is very IB focused so there is not much challenging coursework for 9th and 10th grader…

HI, I'm applying to the ib program at St Robs and my exam is in a week. I looked at a few practice tests online and they all seem very different some extremally easy some not as much so I'm not sure what level of math and English will be on the exam. Does anyone know if it will just be the things we learned in the school curriculum for gr 7 and the start of gr 8 or will there be harder questions.

Hey everyone, As you can tell from the title, I'll be writing the Pre-IB entrance exam for BSS and St Roberts this fall. I got all E's and an overall average of around 92% on my 7th grade final report card, (but I'm not sure how low the acceptance rate for both schools are so I'm not sure if that's enough). Does anyone know roughly how many students get accepted into the program each year? Also, does anyone know how difficult the actual exam is? How much time do you get for each component, roughly how many pages of each component are there and around how many questions are on a page? How hard was each section, and what types of questions were on the exam? Especially …

Can someone please explain to me how the exam is broken down, what can I expect, and what are my chances for getting in?

How well do I have to perform on the test in order for me to get into the program?? St.Roberts only relies on the test scores, im pretty sure. Also, is there any advice or helpful tips for studying for the tests? …

For senior year in the IB diploma, there are 5 HL courses I have to take: HL English HL Studies in Literature HL Business Leadership HL Physics HL Science I’m assuming this is allowed because I can’t graduate with the diploma without these courses. For SL I take, SL French SL Math There is no HL Math offered at my school. However, there is an HL Math online course. I need to take HL Math for the university programs I want to apply to. So, I would have to take 6 HL courses, one SL course, and a TOK course. Do you think this would be allowed?

Hi, for me the IB exams are coming right around the corner and I have been practicing for around 2 weeks with different CEMC Waterloo grade 9, grade 8 and grade 7 tests. I can do the tests but, i'm really worried that I may be missing something or might not be studying everything I should be. I normally don't study this hard for tests since i'm pretty well prepared already but, I have been spending lots of time studying for this test. Definitely shows how high my anxiety is! 😅 I know that for this year, due to Covid, while submitting your application you were required to also submit an English essay. So, now I just have my math part coming up. If there is anyo…

Hello people of the interwebs: I am currently a grade 8 student that took the Bayview S.S. IB acceptance exam. The results said that I would be on a wait list and there were no offers of acceptance. Are there any students that were on a wait list and got accepted (or not for that matter). What’s it like? What are my chances? I had an average of 80-88 on my grade 7 report card; and all E’s on the grade 8 progress report card. I actively participate in class and my teacher didn’t hate me that much ( I think) :P. I’ve heard from some of my friends that the wait list was nothing more than a polite way to say “rejected”... Please help me I am str…

Hello everyone! I am thinking on joining an IB school next year in Portugal and I was wondering if I have to do this “IB10PY” which I assume is 10th Grade before I do the actual IB Diploma Program? I am doing 10th Grade in the national Portuguese system and would not like to repeat it. I also finished the PYP Program and got to Grade 9 of the MYP in an International school before I moved back to my native country of Portugal if that means anything in this situation. I am turning 16 this year and would not like to graduate a year later than all my peers. Can I simply start the IB Diploma Program next year with no hassles? Thank you.
