Course Rigor...

[Sci-Fry]

<p>Ok, so I hear everyone on CC talking about "taking the most rigorous course". In my school, we just have the full IB diploma for everyone, and basically everyone takes 3 HL subjects and 3 SL subjects, although some Italians take Italian HL as an extra higher to substitute the Italian Maturita exam.</p>

<p>I'm just taking:
Math HL
Physics HL
Economics HL
French SL
English SL
Chemistry SL</p>

<p>My 3 HLs are pretty tough combined, and probably a lot tougher than other subject combinations for IB, but do they consider all full IB diplomas to be of the same "rigor"?</p>

<p>Yes, the rigor is just fine. At my school, they don’t even allow you to take more than three HLs. But anyway, think of it this way, IB is roughly the equivalent to AP, and taking 6 AP courses would also be considered rigorous.</p>
