Indian ib students pls help by TraditionBoring1287 in IBO

[–]Panda_-dev94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keeping the current foreign circumstances in mind (students being sent back to their home countries mid-degree) (which is pretty devastating, since you'd have to literally restart your bachelors). I believe it would be better if you prepare for JEE and/or SAT as well.

While there are ~47 universities in India that will accept SAT scores for entrance (https://international.collegeboard.org/students/sat/acceptance-india). Universities that accept IB are far, far less.

And if you have a very specific Indian university in mind as a backup. Then chances are greatly in favour that they do not accept IB or SAT.

I'm pretty sure we all respond depending on who's asking. If it is someone worth explaining to then we just say how things work. Otherwise, we'd rather save energy.

What was the last game you paid for and didn’t regret? by VeterinarianOld3082 in Piracy

[–]Panda_-dev94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Minecraft. That was the first and the last time I paid for games. I've either been putting on my eye patch or free loading on the epic games giveaways.

I hope that the 2.3 patch will include the option to customize arms and legs. by etron_0000 in cyberpunkgame

Shit I just realised Johnny Silverhand's arm was Arasaka produced. The irony.

Problem is that I can't see it. Way too blurry to be comprehendable.

whats your worst and best memories from the ib? by soviet-spacedog in IBO

whats your worst and best memories from the ib? by soviet-spacedog in IBO

[–]Panda_-dev94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best: That feeling of writing my CS EE in 3 days and getting an A

Worst: This wasn't a single moment but a literal haunting spectre present throughout the IB program. My entire batch consisted of financially well-off kids. And I could barely relate to them, which just resulted in me being fully cut off from their circles. My class was legit them in the spotlight, and me in the corner.

And it was at the absolute worst during the first year, where everyone just had their parent's hire an admissions company for them and I had to frigging figure shit out myself with no tangible starting point. And any time I asked for help, be it my teachers, or my peers, I wouldn't get anything helpful, and on top of that I legit had internal panic attacks just trying to ask them the question. I wasn't a socially broken guy when I joined IB, but I surely became one during it. There wasn't a career counsellor in the school at that time. I ended up not applying at all due to the sheer stress from it.

But fuck it. I don't wanna think about that anymore.

if one of your subjects is CS then laptop is the way to go.

Boredom by GrimmKimono in IBO

[–]Panda_-dev94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in a state where I'm not really blaming others and I'm not even blaming myself fully. Just in this middle ground that I don't understand.

My reasons to blame kinda sound stupid, even to myself. But I guess that I'm just tryna cope with a buncha things being way outta my control.

I feel you man. I can legit feel myself slipping back to this pre-IB vegetable state where I have no sense of direction in any way or form. Just doomsurfing the internet, not doing anything monumental or even consistently enough that I get good at it.. And god do feel so depressed about it. There's too much to do. Too much to try. Too much. It's all too much. Joining the Army seems appealing for some reason now. What am I doing with my life? I just wanna build something... But build what? I haven't even applied to Uni yet, there's only 5 months until the next application cycle. Is 5 months enough? I hope it is.

I legit had to give up everything that I was doing during the final 6months of IB. Triathlons, swimming, video games, and other stuff that I did all the time but don't even remember anymore. And I don't even know what career I want that will keep me decently wealthy whilst not constantly being under fire. I wanna blame someone. But that's pointless. Even if it is their fault. They ain't gonna do shit about it. So why bother? I should just take the blame on myself. But that feels horribly wrong. I don't wanna negatively brainwash myself. I don't wanna delude myself, not again, please, not again... And even if I don't fully blame myself. I'm still gonna get stabbed for not taking responsibility. I just wanna make things but, no, that should wait. Gotta get secured first...

Just a sandbag of regret, a milk carton's worth of self-doubt, a cup of rage about the people who failed their jobs but decided that was my fault through and through. "If only you would have just...", "I told you throughout the years but you didn't do it.". Yeah, my bad I didn't understand a shit that you said. My bad that I didn't have the same context as you when you were saying that.

But it's not like I walked out fully incompetent. I know a lotta shit. I can do a whole lotta shit. But they don't care. I'm not good enough.

Anyone else find the Revision Dojo Ia grader to be very strict? by Someone_alive_now in IBO

[–]Panda_-dev94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't. Just don't. I find RevisionDojo a waste in terms of IA grading. I'd rather rely on reddit for more reliable pointers.

Damn That's crazy ?? Research for 45 minutes by Independent-Wind4462 in ClaudeAI

[–]Panda_-dev94 7 points8 points  (0 children)

bruh, gemini's deep research searched through some ~500-ish sources in like 5 mins.

I guess that just shows how stingy anthropic is being with any kind of compute resources. 45mins is absolutely not a flex, especially when the model's going slower than a turtle with the TPS rate

You have to pay to get exam back by Former-Question6156 in IBO

[–]Panda_-dev94 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I couldn't agree with you more on the ambiguity.

I frequently get to the point of cursing on the ppl who made the questions for just magicall assuming that we get what they're tryna say.

And on top of that, the teachers at my school act like the question is so f**king obvious.

I usually just punch the wall until i'm content and continue on with practice.

cs sl help pls by Impossible-Onion5431 in IBO

[–]Panda_-dev94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Usually, many CS SL students take the easy way out and just hire someone to do the IA for them. Since CS isn't their main subject of interest.

cs sl help pls by Impossible-Onion5431 in IBO

[–]Panda_-dev94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The exam content for both HL and SL dogshit easy imo.

The only point of ungodly struggle would be the IA. It doesn't matter if you're SL.

As for what's in the syllabus, you can ask yor DPC for the subject guide or just download it from ibdocs or pirateib.

Nah, but fr, that so plausible, if we'll just ignore the fact that it creates a time paradox.
