NoNo_XD Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 I have just finished my sophomore year. I'm enroll long into IB Diploma. My question is the following: are you able to take three science IBs? My school says its ok and I've chosen three sciences already: (Biology, Physics and Chemistry). But is it REALLY ok? I mean is it within the IB regulations? I've looked all over the Internet for an answer; but there's A LOT of controversy on the subject. Please help me Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meat Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 It does happen, but it's usually for people who need three sciences for university. I guess since your school says it's okay then it is.I wanted to do the same but it didn't work with our school schedule :/ 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoNo_XD Posted June 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 (edited) I need them because I want to be a forensic detective in the FBI. ( I know I'm ambitious) I need all three sciences to be in forensics. You're taking Arabic SL too? Is it hard? I'm good at Arabic but not great.

Guest Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 I know a friend who is taking all three sciences. He said that to study medicine at Indian universities you are required to do all three sciences. My school made a special exception just for him.

You're taking Arabic SL too? Is it hard? I'm good at Arabic but not great.It's pretty easy. It's one of those subjects than people barely study for. I also wasn't great at it when I chose my IB subjects and wished I could've taken another language, but it's very easy, especially at SL. 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was really worried about that, but now I'm relieved Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Positron Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 You'll either have to take one as a seventh subject or have your IB coordinator apply for an irregular diploma for you. For that you'll need to claim you wish to enroll in a university course that requires you to have studied all three sciences (for example medicine in Karolinska Institute).
