<p>I think, therefore IB</p>
<p>Wow, you guys are really fanatical about the IB program. IB is a means, not an end. Dropping the program doesn't mean that the OP is a horrible person who can't manage his time and doesn't appreciate learning and will soon drop out of college. It means that he doesn't think certain requirements, such as the extended essay and documentation of community service are really worth his time, and that's pretty much what he said in his original post. Personally, I think it's a tough call, because it would seem rather anticlimactic to work through all of that and then never actually finish it and get a diploma, but I can understand why joker123 would want to drop it. I'd probably just go ahead and finish it up, but I don't think it makes a huge difference either way.</p>
