MountBlank Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 Hi! II am from Calderstone in grade 8. I am trying to get into IB in Turner Fenton SS. How were your grades in grade 7 and grade 8. For those who have gotten in, was there something that you think made you gain an advantage? Also how can I prepare for the essay? For my grade 7 report card, my average was 88% and all E's. My PE mark was only 75% and I'm scared if that might affect my chance to get in. I'm worried about my grade 8 progress report card as I have REALLY strict teachers this year and I'm sure I wont get all E's or all progressing very wells (maybe even a progressing with difficulty from the worst history teacher EVER). I know these are a lot but I really want to get in. I'm so sorry for the inconvenience! Thank you so much Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
renren Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 I hate to be that person, but if you're this stressed about just GETTING INTO the IB program, maybe rethink doing it. Ok, but onto the real advice. I got into IB with similar marks to you, but marks aren't the only thing that matters when it comes to getting into IB. Some people I know who didn't get into IB had better marks than me. Just try your best to be an "all-rounded" student, and you'll be fine!

A large part of it is personality Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
