Title: [IB] - International Baccalaureate
Post by: Aksel on August 13, 2011, 01:06:15 am
Hey. I'm starting on the local high school in four days. I'm looking forward for it! Meeting new friends, old friends, new subjects and new teachers. I have choosed what we call "Studiespesialisering" in Norwegian, general translation: Study specializing, general studies or something...

Anyway, I have the opportunity to choose something more international. The IB (International Baccalaureate is a world known course that's mostly in private schools, but have becomed a more general way of teaching. All teaching is done in the most international language, which is English. I really like speaking English, so this would be really awesome. Or to say it, fucking awesome. The IB course also have a lot of co-operation with other IB classes all around the world. Ability for exchange of students are also available.

When I was in Croatia, I met a really nice Polish man that was a year older than me. He told me that he was doing the IB course in Poland. He told me it was really nice, and suggested me to do it.

So, is there any of you people out there that are doing it? It sounds really interested, but I am afraid it will not be related to any of my further plans. I am thinking about a master in business and economics.

I was in it before. And was offered to continue it, but it didn't give me much due to the fact that I excel without it.

Take it, its about the experience overall, not if its related to your future career. I would compare it to when people take a year off to travel between Highschool and University. Its about taking the time to learn to and meet new people.
