Hi guys,
i’m currently a junior in the IB Diploma (IBDP) in Canada and i’m considering dropping. This is because for something like the DP, you have to be good at everything; my weakness is in French. My school has a very limited list of what IB courses we can take and one of them is Biology; I lost interest in it. I’m thinking of taking just IB English (HL) and IB History (HL) and a few APs that I like (AP Psych and Microeconomics) in order to show colleges that I’m still challenging myself in subjects that are not my strongest but also showing interest in subjects i want to pursue.
In terms of grades, I’ve been pushing 86-99 throughout my high school career (B in PE once or twice). I want to pursue Economics and Finance (undecided) with my #1 school being Duke and UC Berkeley + UCLA as close #2s. I’m extremely torn if I want to drop the Diploma as whole, drop down to 2 courses or drop it as a whole.
Thanks in advance.
