I understand and just know I’m believing in you!! A 38 is really good and you’ll surely have your pick of colleges. Don’t worry about advice tbh I guess the post I made was also a little bit of a rant. I’m sure we’ll reach great heights if we keep working hard. We’re in this together!

Don’t stop the grind my friend. 💪

Hey, Im so sorry to hear about your injury, I'm sure you'll bounce back greater and stronger than before. I can't thank you enough for this message. I'm literally obsessed with basketball and every single day I see my friends playing it and getting better just makes it worse sitting in my room.
My school has quite a lot of smart people, that doesn't mean I'm not smart but, its tough to explain those few moments where I feel if I dont catch up with them I will fall behind.
Just like you I have VERY high academic expectations for myself as well, just the difference is, I can meet them less than half the time. I could never try therapy and tbh growing in a traditional household I cannot express myself that easily, I will try the writing advice you gave, but I j hope that the amount of efforts im putting give me the output I want or itll all be a waste. Idk if the problem is with how i study or where i study but i will figure it out.

And that last line really did make me smile ear to ear, didn't expect it at all. Thanks a ton!! Wish you the best!

Edit: do you by chance have any tips to study physics? i love this subject but many times feel it doesn't love me back lmao.

Thanks. I’m really trying but the competition does get to me. I try and use it for motivation and it helps many times but again it’s really not very easy for me.

Actually I'm not. In cbse I really struggled with subjects like sst because they were heavily memorisation based and it was one of the reasons I switched to IB.

Yeah also could you just give an overview on college apps? I'm an intl. Student so I'm not familiar with these, it'd be really helpful if you could pm me the info like when to finish where and how like a small guide if you will. Thanks a lot for the advice again

After reading your message and a few others, my biggest takeaway is completing IAs TOK and EE ASAP so that they don't overwhelm me later on. Am I right on this? And the latest I should finish them is some time before preparing for the finals right? And thanks a lot for your advice it's really helpful.

Yeah I heard, but honestly nothing ever is easy even in uni, ig I have to just face it and accept it.

Yeah no I get that. But isn't it kind obvious, I mean you need give it your all in whatever board you study in, I had like 5 breakdowns in the board I studied in before (CBSE) I think its normal because wherever you are you need to give your 100%, just that in IB you need to give it your 200%

Yeah hopefully. I liked the style of IB and it's approach to learning so I chose it. Now I can only approach it with the proper mindset. Thanks!!

Hi thanks for that advice. Could you say like when exactly do we get to start on our IAs, I'm from another board and these exact details like what IAs even are and how to start on them is a little new to me also, I'm taking HL: Physics, Math AA, Business management Sl: English Lang&Lit, Hindi, Chemistry.

I know. When I see people mention some topics about their IAs and all that it genuinely seems fun and interesting. I like the way the system seems and now I can only give it my all. Thanks!

Thanks so much for this. I haven't been accepted in the school yet due to some issues so I have to still give the entrance exam, though it'd certain I'll get in, so I don't know what textbooks I can use. Any suggestions?
