How to prepare for IB?

Question

I'm going to be in grade 9 and i'm enrolled in the IB program. Everyone tells me it's really hard and a lot of work and i'm really scared that i won't be able to handle it. even though i'm a good student with straight A's except for gym and drama right now.

But is there any way i can prepare for IB?

Answer 1

Don't freak out about IB. If you're smart enough to get into IB then you're smart enough to handle it.  It depends on your school district but english is completely easy, all you need to know is how to read. History is probably the hardest one. At my school it was all writing.  But really, don't panic. It is a lot of work, but it's still not too much.  I mean I had a job and I handled it. I hope this helps!
