IBSTUDENTFROMOULUXD Posted September 11, 2018 Report Share Posted September 11, 2018 Hello everyone, I m thinking of doing the non-regular diploma, and I need to get a confirmation letter from university that require the non-regular diploma in order to do so.

kw0573 Posted September 11, 2018 Report Share Posted September 11, 2018 I know a lot of people who just take a 7th subject (often CS in addition to Math HL, Lit HL, and Chem HL). I think you should get irregular in order to apply to a specific uni, not have a uni letter simply to get irregular. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBSTUDENTFROMOULUXD Posted September 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2018 Thank you for replying @kw0573, For irregular I mean by taking 3 sciences and 2 languages and mathematics. My coordinator said that in order to do 3 sciences I must have a letter from university that require the 3 sciences to send to IB for the permission. Btw, I m currently doing 7 subjects Math Hl, Psychology Sl ,Chemistry Hl, Biology HL, English B Hl, Thai ST sl, and Physics Sl(Im dropping psychology if i get the non-regular permission). I want to do the irregular diploma because I think that I might find Physics easier than Psychology since psychology does require alot of reading and physics is more likely to be mathematical which I know how to cope with. What do you think about this? At least for this year, i will try 7 subject and I will see if i m doing well in physics or not if not then i probably going to do a normal diploma.

kw0573 Posted September 12, 2018 Report Share Posted September 12, 2018 Which one is your current 7th subject? If irregular does not work out, i recommend leaving bio HL (change to SL or drop completely). Physics is a much more common requirement for sciemce/engineering majors than biology. IB physics is hardest at the beginning. A lot of schools dont need both chem amd bio for med/pre med. I dont know admissions well enough to list any school needing bio+physics+chem Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
slmsym Posted September 12, 2018 Report Share Posted September 12, 2018 Usually medicine/vet medicine and biomedical science courses in Dutch universities such as, VU Amsterdam, Maastricht and Groningen, require a non-regular Diploma (meaning that Phisyics SL or HL, Chemistry SL or HL, Mathematics SL or HL and Biology HL only.)
