I need some urgent guidance regarding my IB subject choices for next year!!! This is what I've entered; English Lit A HL Economics HL History HL Maths SL Environmental systems and societies SL Mandarin ab initio SL However, I still have the opportunity to make changes so I thought I'd ask for some thoughts on them before I finalise. First of all - do they seem optimal for law at Russel Group/Ivy Leauge unis? English Lit, Economics, Maths and Mandarin are more or less definite so I am left with two concerns; I am considering swapping out History HL to G

I have to choose my EE subject and I'm thinking about Economics and Global Politics. I like both subjects equally and find them pretty much related to each other. I have to submit my choice next week and I still have no idea what to choose! What are the cons and pros for these two subjects? I was thinking maybe it is more difficult to do the research for Economics or am I wrong?

Hello, I'm in MYP 4 and I'm wandering about the selection of the classes I will choose in individuals and societies for the DP programme. Could one of you c tell me what is studied in that course and how could I use it? Thank you very much, E.Ricci

So I'm doing my Extended Essay in Global Politics, because im genuinely interested in it and i take it at HL too. But, im kind of confused about which topic to pick.

I want to write my essay on something that is recent and relevant, or i'll lose interest. Any ideas?

During my Global Politics class I began contemplating about why we have the "Minority Vote". Basically what I'm thinking is that : We worked so hard to remove segregation from Society, but yet we reinstall it in our political system? Was it ever removed from our political system? Why is the "Minority", generally the African-American population and doesn't the Asian, Hispanic, Native American, etc.? I think back to when my mom had all these stock exchange shows and news channels constantly being playing on our TV, around the time of the last Presidential Election (Donald Trump vs. Hil

Hi, I kind of procrastinated and my supervisor hasn't responded to me about my EE topic (I don't think he checks his email during the summer break). I'm doing my EE in global politics and I want to compare the foreign policy of the United States under the Bush administration and the Obama administration toward Israel. I want to look at which was more effective and how it affected the domestic opinion of Israel. I also want to investigate how each foreign policy of each president affected relations with other countries and how successful it is. I'm freaking out right now since it is due in

Hi, right now i'm in Pre-IB and I have to choose the subjects i'm going to have in DP1 and DP2. I'm pretty nervous because I don't know what i should choose... Im sure im not the first person to have this problem, but i need some help from previous IB students. Before you ask, I don't know what I want to work with in the future, but I know i'm interested in the "social direction", meaning i'm interested in the social sciences etc. Some things that i'm not good at: speaking/presenting in front of a lot of people and chemistry/physics. So this is basically what I was planning on taking (ye
