Eternalx Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 Let us to psychology only. Skip all the sciences, also remove the 20min preparation oral and only give students IAs instead of exams. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asterix Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 Remove CAS.Make the extended essay 8000 words instead of 4000, so I wouldn't have to halve my final draft due in a month >.>Make IA's in maths standard count more... I mean 20%? Every other subject is 30%+Let the IBO set a universal deadline for May and November exams.. rather than have school deadlines... my world lit was due 5 months before the final deadline!Sure it could impact peoples study, but let everyone organize their time individually. In 5 months from when I handed my WL in, im sure i could have found SOMETHING to change. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tilia Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 Allow us to study three languages AND two sciences without having to do an extra subject. Also, give us less strange IAs for maths and remove philosophy paper 3. It scares me! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

biochem Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Nooooooooo. Leave the sciences alone! Remove IAs and the IOC/French Oral. Let exams count for 100% of the final grade. Ew. I think orals should be 50% of overall grade. Afterall, it is a good representation of the linguistic skills. but I do agree, science is the best part of IB.

Psychology is a science . I still think if the IAs counts for 100% of the final grade for all the subjects it would PWNS!!!! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelleee Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 get rid of the billion forms you have to fill in for cas, actually get rid of cas all together.ditch the IOC (20 min oral) for A1change the percentages so that there's still some chance of passing if you flunk your final exams. and reduce the workload so that ib-ers can have a life, WITHOUT 24/7 studying.

It just means that you'll be doing 4 HL and 3 SL subjects. Also one of those HL subject must be done outside of school (in your own time) which makes it very very hard to complete.

hermine0817 Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Haha, let me think...Writing CAS diary really is boring, but it is the uniqueness of IB, so no.Removing TOK? NO WAY!IA should have a higher final percentage in the fianl grade and the final exams should have less influence.(Our teachers tell that your final grade is 70% dependent on your final exams. This just isn't fair.)Else, I'm quite satisfyed with IB.A lot of works, of course, but that belongs to the programme, I would say... Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNRS Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Remove the center of the hexagon!(Well, I can do the EE, but I need more time for getting a good mark)(The IBO can't add 3 or 4 hours to the normal day, doesn't it? ) Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tilia Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 remove group 1 and 2 and of course when first started , remove TOK, make the IA in math count more than 24% of the final grad.How can you want to get rid of ToK? It's a really good subject! I think we should be able to substitute one HL with two SL. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
