Anyone know how difficult it is to get into the School of Communication?
@IntApp2022 That’s Amazing! Congrats! what subjects did you take?
Wow thats amazing @IntApp2022.
What subjects did you take?
@kitkat2018 @Heisenberg1700 Thanks! 
I took Physics, Bio and Psych HL and Math, French(AB) and Literature SL.
@IntApp2022 lol literally the only subject we have in common is French ab.
Any tips?
Haha well try to get the WA and the oral out of the way as soon as possible. The comprehension is pretty easy, try practicing SL papers for more ease. Writing is what I needed to focus on most though, so the last 5 months all we did in class was vocab and write different texts on various themes. You can memorize a few phrases for each theme that can work well with any question. That’s all, I guess. I’ll let you know if I think of anything else Good luck with your exams @Heisenberg1700 !
@IntApp2022 I’m taking physics HL and I’m worried for the papers. 
@kitkat2018 Physics HL is one of the hardest subject courses in IB, so pretty much everyone is in the same boat there every time. The questionbanks help though. Try solving them
@IntApp2022 thanks! and btw where’d you lose the 2 points?
@Heisenberg1700 I got a 6 in Physics and Psych. They were high sixes though and they broke my heart
@IntApp2022 I’m sure those extra 2 points wouldn’t have made that big of a difference. You are still gonna do great.
does anyone have an idea of when decisions are coming out?
@Heisenberg1700
HL English, Visual Arts, History of the Americas
SL Math, Spanish, Chem (Took last year and got a 4 bc of my IA tried to argue but they wouldn’t let me repeal) TOK as well.
My predicted scores for this year are most likely a 6 in every subject besides art which could be a 5.
TOK paper on uniformities and knowledge.
EE on Psychoanalysis of a Disgrace by J.M. Coetzee.
All students at my school have a set curriculum so we have to take these courses, but I take HL Economics in my free time and also applying for my Real Estate License this summer possibly. (They don’t know about the econ or real estate because I started in mid-November.
If you need anything else, I’m totally ok to compare. What are your stats?
Hoping for an acceptance for both of us!
@Heisenberg1700 also, this semester I got
7-English
7-TOK
6-art
6-math
6-Spanish
6-HOA (Which should have been a 7 but he didn’t give me the extra .5% as a boost which I was tight about)
This was the first semester I was really able to do well because I had to take care of my family often times because both my parents were disabled for a while and had their problems that I cleaned up typically.
@IntApp2022 Holy Moley! That’s crazy! You shouldn’t worry about those two sixes. Honestly that’s Harvard material right there. Idc about SATs, (personally I think they’re ridiculous because they measure how much money you have for prep or you dedicate your life to a test that measures how you do once in your life), but I’m curious where else are you applying?
Any chance decisions will be released today or tomorrow?
@Kova34 Thanks! I’m applying to WUSTL, UChicago, JHU, Emory, Amherst, Skidmore, Middlebury, UPenn, and one or two more. The problem is that I’m an international applicant with financial need so my chances of admission are lower than the already low regular numbers. Let’s hope I get in somewhere! Fingers crossed
@IntApp2022 WUSTL and UPenn for me as well, I think with those stats it would be hard to turn you down tbh.
@Kova34 That’s reassuring, thanks I certainly hope I receive an acceptance, but I guess we’ll have to see what happens. Good luck to the both of us Northwestern might be releasing this Friday based on past years
Good luck to you all. I really am hopeful that everyone will find a great college home after all of this.
