The IB program?

Question

I was wondering if my choices of subjects are hard to do. For higher level there is english, visual arts and business. are these bad or very difficult choices? Also, what is the extended essay like and are CAS hours hard to complete? Please someone answer from experience with doing IB and has already graduated and received the diploma. And does the IB program look good for applications to Canadian Universities?

Thank you =]

Answer 1

those r pretty easy compared to other subjects.

i did Maths,physics and business at higher lever

eco, english, french at Standard level

i found those pretty hard...from my HLs business was the easiest

no ur subjects arnt difficult choices....but nothing is easy in IB anyway.

extended essay is a 4000 word essay that u  MUST complete if u want the IB diploma.....and ill advice u to try get ur CAS done as soon as possible...dont leave it till the 2nd yr....

for ur extended essay it would b easier if u base it on business...i did it on physics and it is really hard to get good grades for essays based on sciences...but its much easier to get an A with a business extended essay

im not sure what job oppotunities u have because i dont knw what r ur SLs and what level of maths u r doing

if u r doing math methods and economics as SL then u can get good jobs in the business sector as u do business HL aswell

hope this helps and good luck....dont take it easy...it may look easy the first couple of months but it isnt.....all u have to do is manage everything well u'll have no problems. trust me :)

no they will look MORE at ur HLs than ur SLs....but that doesnt mean they r gonna ignore ur SLs.....

as for job opporunities...maybe u can do something in business...or art? concentrate on getting good grades for now :) then u r sure to get a very good job one day
