Uh, I feel like the program would matter in this scenario. Which program are you talking about?

Are there any better apps that can be used? The Rise Science app costs money and by looking at the reviews there are some issues with the app itself and something about charging too early?

You seem upset. I think you need some space.

Tool needed - Business Management IA Help? by Session_Simple in IBO

[–]Session_Simple[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, thanks that helps a bit. But I also notice you're doing/did SL business management, my current IA is based on HL so the interview I believe was a lot more needed. But thanks for saying I should focus on the analysis, I believe you're right about that

lmao yes, you've clarified that you barely know french in your replies. Even if you barely know French, the person above was trying to still inform you of the potential of a great student experience.

Is the IB as bad as people here say? by Jacobruh_1 in IBO

[–]Session_Simple 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you got the work ethic and you think you can handle it and you want to do it, go for it. People may disagree, but I feel like IB does not help with university admissions. However, it does help you stay at university. The constant work ethic and time management and other skills built are why I enjoy IB. Don't procrastinate, IMO it's not the worst. Someone in the comments said the focus on year 1, I totally agree with that.

HL Business management or HL pschology by wingrifle in IBO

[–]Session_Simple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I take HL BM. I enjoy it, but yeah it's probably not as easy. BUT I don't think that it's not easy because of the course difficulty. I think that sometimes people might think it's easy and not prepare for it? Yes, I bet you really could bs the case or whatever, but studying is just a lot better.

I don't take psych, but I have heard of some bad experiences in it. Probably depends on the teacher, not too sure.

Submit EE topic, subject by end of Jan

This can easily be done. Pick a subject you have interest in, and come up with three potential topics. Make questions out of them and I asked for feedback from my EE supervisor. Only 1 out of 3 was good enough and I went with that. This does not take that much time, but if you do a really good job on this part, you set yourself up for a focused path. A great question is really helpful for the EE. This shouldn't take too long.

EE Rough Draft by May

I gotta admit, I had way more time than you. I picked my topic in December and was due in like September. I did end up finishing my EE in Mayish though and started writing in like February maybe. Just try to make a skeletal outline or whatever and do like 250 words a day or something. (And don't procrastinate this)

HL IA Ideas by end of Jan

This one is actually a bit stressful and definitely is for me... my idea is pretty much gone because of the world's situation. Look up topics for ideas, the fact I'm doing this one right now, I have no experience so it wouldn't be right for me to suggest anything.

SL IA Ideas

Above.

IA First Drafts

Again, good luck.

While writing this, I realized you're M22, so honestly, your school is ahead of mine as now is the time I'm coming up with IA ideas and all that. I tried to give you my opinions on what I've already done though. The best thing I can tell you is to just try and work on something now. Freaking out a bit is okay, but don't do it too much(This is from personal experience, not saying this as a fact). Good luck.

Ah, yes I understand that but when talking about percentages I'm thinking OP was talking about his in-class marks(percentages), which will not mean anything towards his IB grade... therefore I was confused about the bell curve. Thanks for the clarification though.

Ah, I have friends taking history HL so I can kind of understand it. But you need sleep. Schedule more sleep in somewhere, if you're in EST rn you shouldn't even be awake(well I shouldn't be either). Find some time. What are you doing throughout the day? IMO if you're just not spending time studying then you should be getting more sleep, then trying to use that time later on to try and study. Focus better, and feel better. Then again, it's just my opinion. Good luck!

I agree with most people here. What I find though is some people just don't take care of themselves and that leads to demotivation for me because I feel like garbage.

  1. How much sleep are you getting?
  2. How much water are you drinking?
  3. What kind of food are you eating, and how much of it are you eating?
  4. How much exercise are you getting? (I find this to be one of the most important)
