It's time to take off your masks and show your faces. Be proud, most Americans covet our program. Discuss your experiences as an IB student / IGCSE examination alumni et al.

Extended Essay, English Essay and all those little things that screw our lives over during high school.

For those about to enter the program this is a good opportunity to gather enough info, tips, guides and how-to's in order to succeed.

Poor over-educated lads, I feel for you

Dude, those classes were frigging boring haha, writing that essay too although I got a good grade.

How Come? (well, it depends on the teacher) it was pretty much talking your way out of (into) intellectual/philosophical/worldly discussions, no?

Yeah, I guess it depends on the teacher, but still it was boring

I had a friend who grew up doing the IB program, but then went to a plain public school. I found his descriptions of IB kind of interesting.
