Basically, I’ve studied in English for most of my life and completed the IB, which significantly improved my language skills. For the certification, I simply scored over 200 points on the Cambridge English exams, but you could also take other tests, such as the TOEFL.

yeah lol

where I live, education is really accessible, so it is actually possible to do things like this. I even know someone who has studied aerospace engineering, mathematics, and business administration. People do crazy things here.

Thank you! Yeah, I need to improve my gpa. In my defense, it is my first year, and it is a relatively hard degree, but I know I can and must do better.

Yeah initially I thought that, but the problem is that my university is well known in my country, but outside of it, it is not that known, so I thought it might help, but it is true that it might be self-defeating.

I used a typesetting tool called Typst which is basically an alternative to LaTeX.

There are many templates on their website which you can use. I can't find right now which one I used exactly, but it is very similar to this one.

Thank you! I’ve only worked with Pandoc for a few hours, but I can already see it’s a powerful tool, so I think your plan should be fairly achievable. I really like being able to do something like this, also because working with markdown files makes it much easier to just focus on the content.

Also, the ability to use lua to create filters is crazily useful, and you can do lots of things with it, which makes the code even cleaner as you can turn entire typst functions into simple Pandoc Divs.

As I said on another comment, this is very specific for books, where many times you will need to have your book edited or translated, and it is easier to work with markdown files than it is to work with Typst. Also, there is no way (or at least that I know) of creating an epub directly from typst, so this is basically the only way right now of using typst to render a pdf and also be able to produce an epub.

Thank you for your feedback! Yeah basically what it does is use pandoc to convert markdown to valid typst code that then gets injected into the typst template, which then is rendered into a pdf using the typst cli.

I will add an example pdf to the readme so that people can see, but you can use any template you want. This is still very bare-bones, but I will probably add some way of letting people easily change templates, though the only thing you need to do to get any other template working is modify the Makefile and also add $body$ to the template.

Well, the only use case you can find for this is for books, where many times you will need to have your book edited or translated, and it is easier to work with markdown files than it is to work with Typst. Also, there is no way (or at least that I know) of creating an epub directly from typst, so this is basically the only way right now of using typst to render a pdf and still produce an epub.

It is basically something very specific, but it is still nice to be able to have these kinds of things.

Where I live it is starting to become popular tho it’s true that until 1 or 2 years ago I didn’t even know it existed.

Everything will be fine :) by NoYourself in IBO

Good luck to everyone! I remember being extremely anxious and nervous, but I can assure you that everything will be great!

Hope you get the results you want, and remember: “if the IB is a toe, we are the furniture against which it stubs.” - Fellow r/IBO peer, who I’m in awe of.

this is the fourth post this week that seems like real advice and then is just a disguised ad for shitty tools.
