IB Class of 2013: advice, expectations?
Blue Alien replied to haley.the.great's topic in General IB Discussion
Mathematics SL is surprisingly easy so far O.O Psychology is amazing, we have the best teacher EVER. English is interesting enough. Greek is kind of difficult to get a 7, but it's not that boring as a subject so I'll give it a go. Biology is pretty easy and highly interesting. Chemistry is kind of difficult, but still manageable. ToK is frustrating as HELL. Well, so far so good -
I´m bilingual, I can speak and read Greek and English both as my mother tongues. However, I speak 3 languages: the ones mentioned before and Spanish. I enjoy reading in either one language, however I find it more difficult to do so in Spanish, since I'm only at an intermediate level.

Oooh your subjects sound cool! Especially modern greek OMG I would LOVE to take that. I'm too absolutely terrified of math SL and might drop down to math studies if it gets to be too much for me. Lets stick together, eh Well Greek is a piece of cake since I'm a native And yes, I am terrified of Maths SL as well but I need them to study Biology Ughhhhh -
Granted but they're all dry and unusable by now. I wish I could eat cereal right now.

The books were okay, however it was difficult not to notice the mistakes the author would constantly make on Greek gods and goddesses. Having been taught Greek Mythology in school for 12 years and knowing the characteristics of gods and mortals and the kind of interaction they could have, the Percy Jackson series were just featuring a completely different version of them -which was, of course, false- and were building a whole story on errors. I would advise the author to actually know Greek Mythology before writing a whole series on it.

I took Psychology! I was considering taking it as a HL and then take Spanish B SL instead of Greek, but my friend who is in IB told me that it has a lot of things to memorize, and that HL is just torture O.O -
