paige011 Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 I know that there are people who actually enjoy the work IB thrusts upon them, but there are things that people like IB in general.In this post I was wondering if like, well, let's start a game.Post your favorite things about IB, whether it be the people you meet, the memories you make, etc.Be specific!I'll do mine...My favorite part of being an IB student is the family you create with your other students. You all lean against each other for everything it it's awesome. You get to make awesome memories (Like running through the halls to your ex-biology teacher and getting her to print your parts C and F of your IA...) and stuff. Your turn!

IBStuck Posted November 30, 2008 Report Share Posted November 30, 2008 my uni gave me one of their top scholarships just for getting adiploma, so it is literally paying off for me. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aldarion Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 - As many have already mentioned the IB "family" is THE favourite part in the IB for me. The guys here are just so awesome- Challenge that the IB gives- Opportunity to study in English- TOK; I just like it Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KjeAlb Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 - The possebility to bitch about it to all in the regular programmes, and make them think we are superhumans who sleep 1-2 hours a day and only live off coffe, cas and grades. - the goofy science jokes gotta love 'em - and how we have become the outcast at our school Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shirl.Shen Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 -IB "family" and our constant blabbering about last nights homework or tomorrow's assignment & jamming up the halls-IB english and how now whenever I pick up a book and rather than read it I analyze it. -how you have lots of "inside jokes" with the teachers and laugh at the appearance of these jokes in other classes Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
judgev Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 It connects the year as a whole cause we all think the IB is a love/hate thing and at the moment we hate it cause of the pressure and stress to get everything done and to start the intense revision!!!The memories from the different classes, the stupid answers people gave and the way we sometimes out smarted the teachers!!!The stupid jokes the chemistry teacher would say: what's the element of cooper?........CU....later.......HAHAHA!! OMG!The times when we ganged up to say "What we had homework???" and look so blank, but the teacher's always knew we were lying, but hey were not all George Clooney's.There were many things and I cant list them all, but overall we hate going through it yet there's sometime about it that we love!! Dont know it's all a force beyong this world...or so we think! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aether Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Hmm.. seems like fun, what I enjoy about IB is:- Disrupting english classes, CAS classes, history classes...- Complaining about work together- IB school trips- Our school dance competition (IB won)- Excellent literary choices to read in classes (most of them)- Taking days off in picnics and supposed "lab practices" and say it is for CAS Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindieeluieee Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 My favourite thing in the IB is the opportunities of CAS you can do and within the huge piles of work I really found some things I love doing (volunteering to help out at concerts, in which I can listen to fantastic music, making my own charity organisation,etc). I also feel very fortunate to have reasonably good teachers for my subjects. From what I have heard from some of the ppl here, some teachers are truly horrifying.

Rodaklen Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 My favorite part of IB are my classmates. We are so few in comparisong to other baccalaureates and our schedules are very different from them that we are almost the alone at the free hour!We are like a Band of brothers.

thinkgreen95 Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 I'm in grade 9 in IB right now, and at my school we have a lot of really mean cliques in IB and one or two really nice people who get picked on and stuff (i.e. me) and we are so NOT a family...how'd it happen? wow that is an awkward smiley Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
