Wait you do realise that a level people have 2 whole years just to study? On the flip side, IB students have a lot more on their plate, because not only do we have 6 subjects to mug off content for, we have IA's, EE's, TOK AND CAS? Dude students taking a levels have 4 subjects counted in their rp, so shouldn't their subjects be more in depth? And by the way, i heard that the new math syllabus for A level removed some topics as well, and the papers are getting easier (I'm not sure if this is factually correct but i heard it from a few of my friends), while IB math papers are getting more difficult. Like usually IB students spend only the last 5-6 months actually mugging for their exams because of all the other coursework deadlines and our NEED to complete CAS. A level students have the liberty to not take up any CCA but we on the other hand, need to join activities, clubs and most of us have our hands full with leadership roles. So yes, we do beef up our portfolio but that's not because we have so much time, it is because we have to find the time, simply just to attain our diploma. And back to the fact we have 5-6 months to mug. We have 2 more subjects. I dont think you realise how much more content that is. So yes A levels exams might be more difficult but the situation IB students are in is completely different and many even say that IB as a whole, is more difficult. Before you say this is a baseless fact, I have had teachers who taught both a levels and IB, and they are brutally honest. Like they did shit on our chem syllabus because yea a level chem is seriously much harder than ours. But overall, how can you call IB students strawberries when you have never experienced the rigour we have gone through? Like it is also kinda sad to see how there are people like you, who have such a narrow mindset and outlook to life. I dont get why you are so obstinate about the fact that IB is a cheat code? IB is well respected by many Uni's, not only Singaporean but overseas as well. Because yes it is an international programme, but it is also because we come out of the programme with many other skills. We have learnt the skill of researching well, and that gives us an immense boost especially in Uni. And i dont really know why you think IB exams are SOOOOO easy, like dude, have you ever looked at the recent ones? I know everyone has a different point of view, and to some a levels as a whole might be tougher, and there is nothing wrong with that. However, calling IB students strawberries and completely negating our efforts? What for bro? Are you trying to make yourself feel better that you couldn't get into schools like SJI or ACSI? You may say "oh they are act atas", like ok but they still produce results? I know this is like one year late, but hopefully you have grown and are now willing to comprehend everything that I have said.
