If you want to do well in DP, start to prepare as early as possible. It's not the same as A-level or AP where you just study and do papers.The factors which determines your success is more of your ability to manage time and deep thinking. Especially for your first language lit, it needs daily accumulation. Simply remembering contents and opinions as is what you do in igcse doesn't work anymore. Choose wisely. IB isnt for everyone and it's not a easy one
You are so clear in conveying in the simplest way . My son is entering the 9th grade in IB, still 2 years to go for diploma programme . I have picked up so many guidelines , and you would be a treat to hear to for my son too.
currently in IB2! i'm in the worst week so far, i have 2 IA's due tomorrow, a test the day after and the SAT on saturday. but i think it's worth it tbh, the way people talked about the IB before i took it scared the crap out of me but honestly? i leave most my IAs till the last minute and still manage to get them done. idk why i'm watching this but this was really cohesive and well put together! i have to get back to my IAs now ✊
is it tough to manage? like in your opinion how's the overall experience? i wanna take it but i'm scared 😭 although i do get things done on time my only concern is if the subjects are hard or not and are the exams tough?
@@zainaaa9335 It's difficult but you don't have to be scared. After all, millions of students take the diploma. You're also capable of doing it. Don't worry too much about the exams. It's not like you have to get 100 out of 100 marks. For most subjects, 80% or above is a 7, and some subjects you just have to get 70% for a 7. The most important thing is not overstudying a single subject.
do they have exams? i'm considering it but i'm still kinda lost on what to pick and are the subjects tough? and are the essays and research work easy to do, if you're dedicated and committed?
@@zainaaa9335 yes. I picked: French A SL, English B HL, Philosophy SL, Biology HL, Math AI SL, Theatre HL. Theatre and Biology were my favorites. Of course you have exams! 2 or 3 per subject depending on if you picked HL (higher level) or SL (standard lvl), you have to have 3 HL. In sience, math, and language you have 1 internal assessment each, for example a biology lab report that is graded by an IB examinator, and this IA grades go into your final grade. So if you are well organised and have good learning methods, it is pretty fun if you have nice teachers and peers. Honestly best time of my life.
@@Furious_Frost Choisis ce qui t'intéresse, ça sera plus facile d'étudier pour ça. J'ai pris Français A, Anglais B NS, Philo, Math AI, Bio NS, Théâtre NS. Bonne chance !
I got into Cambridge from A levels, and literally everyone I met when I got there have done the same. It would have been harder to get in from the IB - as you don't specialise at 16.
Very interesting - I now wish my school offered the IB! Would’ve loved to take more subjects like music and French further than my GCSEs, and the research and report writing experience of IAs!
Bro you don’t know what you’re talking about. I currently got a predicted with which I can apply to Oxford with but I am strongly thinking of starting grade 11/year 12 again and doing A level for two years because it’s much easier to get into a good uni with A level
@@danmkhv if you can apply to oxford just based on your predicted, then why on earth would you wanna waste time with another go at a levels, sorry but thats kinda stupid.
The worst part of taking IB is not the subjects themselves or the difficulties. You get flattered by the number of works you have to get done at the same time, especially the requirements of the diploma: EE, TOK, CAS, IAs. Multitasking is necessary, so people like me who like to focus on a single thing always find ourselves lost.
Dude I went to a school where it’s ONLY IB, there were basically no choices in subjects so I just had to do it not to fail, also the A levels seem so much better
A levels are better as deeper and free to focus what you want. You can do 3 or 4 or 5 A levels. I did maths, economics, physics, geography and EPQ. Languages can be studied anytime and do not need qualifications to do well in it
This channel is so underrated. I just started IB(in the 2nd week) and things are pretty intense already. I also joined some clubs and obtained some roles that would help me get into the Ivy League, which is where I wanna go. The problem is tho with U.S. universities is that they require you to participate in tons of activities and obtain leadership roles if you wanna get into a good university. But overall, I think the IB would have a good impact in the end. By the way I have a question, in senior year, did your school give you the last couple of months off in order for you to study? Thank you and continue with the great content 👍
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I agree, getting into university is really tough, and there is so much to do! Good luck with your application! Sort of, they gave us a couple of weeks of as study leave, but not a couple of months. This being said, I was 2020 - COVID year, so I didn't even have exams in the end.
in my school, the IBDP is COMPULSORY, and there isn't any other alternatives.. the worse thing is that my school doesn't even have PYP and MYP to lead uop to the IB. It was from IGCSE, and then this big leap to IBDP..
Wow! Yep my school had the same system - straight from iGCSE to IBDP. It was a bit of a shock, particularly in terms of workload, but I think in the end it was manageable for most people. Good luck!
IB helped you to write essays that helped you to get admission in university. So, I know a friend, who started teaching English Reading & Writing from several teachers for about 3 years while he was studying in school. Well, that definitely improved his English Writing skills and he got accepted in Oxford University in his very first attempt to study Medicine. So, my Question is, Why do we still need to get IB Diploma if we can still get accepted by other top universities without it?
Your IB experience is a whole world different to mine. I don’t have flexibility we don’t have many choices as a IB school. I also felt like the way they thought was much more efficient than regular school even with the larger workload
Hi I having an interview to enter an IB program school as PYP teacher. I don't know anything about the this. But I succeeded to pass for the first step of the interview. Tomorrow I will go to the second step. But my worry is about the demo class. As I don't have any idea of how it works in the classroom. I saw a lot of video about the explanation of the PYP. But noone show a step by step demo class
Hi, I can try to help you a bit with planning your classroom. I have been educated under the IB system. Some essential elements for me are the following: You ought to encourage your students to investigate by themselves. You are a guide providing them with the necessary knowledge to delve into the investigation. You must help them develop their skills (you can search for the IB profile attributes online) and allow them to develop their passions and improve both their knowledge and abilities. In this way, you can't simply feed the knowledge to your students but make them become involved in their own learning process. Hope this helps.
Nothing giving you that procrastination rush and panic as IB work. I managed to do that with my EE. IB trained me to be able to still be able to function on a week average of 2 hours of sleep. Good luck in your IB and make sure you dont fall too far into the hole of procrastination. 🤣🥳
Thanks for this We're Americans living in New Zealand and had never heard of IB. Out little girl will be attending primary school that follows the IB curriculum through age 12 and we were wondering if it's with seeking out a secondary school which will continue that pathway. Do you have any sense as to whether the IB would find more naturally to students who have been studying with that method since childhood?
Hi), I am currently in my first year of ibdp and I'm not doing great in almost all of my subjects, some parts I transfer to English school late and have problems with the language. I am thinking about transferring to the Cambridge aice diploma instead but honestly I also want to continue the ibdp course. Could you give me some advice on how I should act in this case?
I'm sorry you are finding the IB difficult! I don't know much about the Aice diploma, so I can't advise you much. I think if you look at what you want to follow after school (degrees, work, etc.), ask yourself whether you would have the same opportunities with the Aice diploma vs the IB. If yes, then there is no reason to not switch!
Thank you so much for your vid. Right before I watched ur video 2yrs ago now I met ur vid this.. although I dont know about IB well, however, I found IB course had great influence on many Ib students. you look quiet differnet before ur vid. Is Ibdp a very hard training programme??
Hi thanks for the lovely video I’m looking for an IB Mentor (not a subject tutor) but a coach to guide my child on how to prepare for the DP How can we find past papers and flash cards ?
IB is done when you're in grade 11 and 12 whereas IGCSE is done when you're in grade 9 and 10. So obviously IB will be more difficult. But if you compare IBDP with the A levels, ppl say IBDP is much more difficult esp with the HL subjects
It worth if U apply outside Ur country within High Universities Reputation Only ...... And if U are Eastern Catholic within Western Catholic boards Educations system teachers and staffs as they not Grants U a highest Score.... But the problem here IB Students average will be equal to the non IB Students and the Non IB students will be Higher for acceptance than IB Students,,,, As the IB Students study and write Exams For all Books compare to the Non IB Students.... Here is A Lack of Luck For the IB Students... As there is No IB University Exists in each province Only for IB Students Acceptance to balance and compare there Levels to Non IB Students..... Hopefully they could solve the issue Related to the IB Students within Building IB University in Each Province of The Country like Canada .... To be Qualified for there achievement and Study Performance of the IB Students....
I did Bio, Chem and Econ HL, and Maths, Spanish and English lit SL. Let me know if you would like my help with anything IB or Medicine related - my email inbox is open!
I was wondering what type of maths you did for medicine? and also do you have a social life when doing ib because im considering it for next year but Im afraid I wont have any social life which is very important to me. I also cant choose between calculus and statistics. Idk which one is more beneficial.
I did SL maths. We didn't have AA or AI back in my year. I don't think the maths matters that much I'll be honest, but statistics is probably the most beneficial for you. You can absolutely have a social life in the IB, don't worry!
My son has just passed his second standard from a Cambridge school and now i want to put him in An IB school..can u plz guide will it be suitable for him in junior school? And what careers suit an IB student at higher levels thanks
Like plz i didn't understand IB is the global recognized qualifications so its equivalent to Alevels right. Cuz i am doing Alevels, So IB is done after School, right? I need clarification And its a programme of how much time like 2 years?
I have a doubt. Is it needed to admit a child in IB since Early years? Like lkg and ukg or it doesnt matter if we join the child in state/cbse/icse/igcse etc and then shift the child to IB? Is it recommended that since early years and pyp IB is needed if we plan on joining the child in IB in the later years? Please suggest. Thank you and all the best.
I’m currently an IBDP student and I’ve been in an IB school since middle school, but quite a lot of my classmates only joined an IB school in grade 11 (first year of DP) and it was not much harder for them than it was for those who graduated IBMYP
Hello, Is it possible for you to share the resources used for learning. My daughter is planning to do MathsAA, Chem n Physics plus Economics n Spanish. Would really appreciate. Thank you
My youngest daughter is wrapping up her Senior Year as an IB student. I had to learn when NOT to disturb her because the STRESS was REAL!!!! I don’t know if she would agree with you because this year I think there are 37 IB students, next year there are 11. The word at her school is that obviously IB is not worth the stress. (*FYI - She got into Brown ED, UMICH, etc., so to me LOL it was worth it)!
I'm beginning my second year of IB and am actually thinking of dropping, I am not planning on applying at any universities outside my country (in Latin America) until later on, to do my postgraduates internationally. I am missing so much of the fun of the senior year, and it comes between me and my social life. People really treat you different when you are in ib compared to ab. I keep wishing I leave high school soon, because now my class is only 11 students, and it is so boring and exhausting; meanwhile my ab classmates seem to have a really good time every day, without so much unnecessary stress. I really do not recommend ib for people who do not plan on applying internationally on their first year, and if you are shy, it is already hard for you to have a social life; now imagine with ib, a social life is practically impossible, and you will miss out on the best years of high school and being a teenager. I am really not happy right now, and you are supposed to do hat makes you happy; it feels like I am just doing it to keep other people happy rather than myself. Although I do think; in the year I already took of ib, that it has indeed helped me at writing essays and my investigation skills, the balance is way off for me, with more cons, rather than pros. That was my personal opinion, and I hope I am still able to drop, and just enjoy high school. But after all, it may be different for everyone; just remember to do whatever makes you happy.
@@lucianasandoval7921 So many of my daughter’s friends dropped IB. I think my daughter tried to warn me that she was considering dropping, but she’s hanging in there. She has less than 2 mos. left at this point. I pray that you do what’s best for you and that you are successful in all of your present/future endeavors.

(*FYI - She got into Brown ED, UMICH, etc., so to me LOL it was worth it)!
I'm beginning my second year of IB and am actually thinking of dropping, I am not planning on applying at any universities outside my country (in Latin America) until later on, to do my postgraduates internationally. I am missing so much of the fun of the senior year, and it comes between me and my social life. People really treat you different when you are in ib compared to ab. I keep wishing I leave high school soon, because now my class is only 11 students, and it is so boring and exhausting; meanwhile my ab classmates seem to have a really good time every day, without so much unnecessary stress. I really do not recommend ib for people who do not plan on applying internationally on their first year, and if you are shy, it is already hard for you to have a social life; now imagine with ib, a social life is practically impossible, and you will miss out on the best years of high school and being a teenager. I am really not happy right now, and you are supposed to do hat makes you happy; it feels like I am just doing it to keep other people happy rather than myself. Although I do think; in the year I already took of ib, that it has indeed helped me at writing essays and my investigation skills, the balance is way off for me, with more cons, rather than pros. That was my personal opinion, and I hope I am still able to drop, and just enjoy high school. But after all, it may be different for everyone; just remember to do whatever makes you happy.
@@lucianasandoval7921 So many of my daughter’s friends dropped IB. I think my daughter tried to warn me that she was considering dropping, but she’s hanging in there. She has less than 2 mos. left at this point. I pray that you do what’s best for you and that you are successful in all of your present/future endeavors.
@@lucianasandoval7921so real. What did you decide on doing?
