How Hard Are these IB Classes? IB Kids Only

<p>I'm an incoming Junior and I'm going to do the IB Diploma. This is my schedule:</p>

<p>IB English HL
IB Math SL (2nd year)
IB History of the Americas
IB Biology HL
French 3
TOK/Band (TOK for 2 trimesters/Band for 1 trimester if it works)</p>

<p>It would also be great if people provided online resources for the IB classes.</p>

<p>*I already posted this in the IB forums, but more people come through here</p>

<p>BUUUUUUUMP</p>

<p>Depends on the school/teacher. I know at my school the IB classes are mostly taught with AP classes. </p>

<p>Next year I plan to take AP/IB econ and IB enviro, IB envrio is pretty easy!</p>

<p>Hi!</p>

<p>Are you aiming for the full IB diploma? Because you only listed 4 IB subjects, and are required to take 6 - including 3 HL courses.</p>

<p>EDIT: Just read your other thread. Seems like your school is splitting the courses over two years.</p>

<p>From my experience, it is possible to finish a course in one year (I did Chemistry SL and ITGS SL in one year), however, I really hope you have good teachers - or else you’ll suffer.</p>

<p>I also took English A HL, Biology HL, Business HL, Arabic A SL, and Math SL. Those subjects were a lot better because they were spaced over two years.</p>

<p>My hardest courses were Arabic, Math, and English. Don’t think Eng. will be a walk in the park… it WILL make your brain hurt. And at the end you have, along with two written exams, an oral test which is horrible.</p>

<p>All these courses also have internal assessments (IA’s) which are due senior year that you should NOT procrastinate. The Math IA was the most fun for me.</p>

<p>And don’t forget your community service hours (150 h), extended essay (4000 words), and TOK essay.</p>

<p>In conclusion, IB will be strenuous no matter what subjects you take, but in the VERY end, you’ll realize it’s worth it. :slight_smile: I have TONS of resources, so feel free to PM me! </p>
