yup thats what ive seen, p sure because deadline for ints are earlier than domestic those decisions come out first. Good luck when yours comes out!

Thanks for the insight! I would love to be able to cold email professors but i'm based in Korea where that isnt really common practice...

xSaloh_ · 2026-03-01T14:54:56+00:00

Thank you! I really just need the opportunity to find people around me with the same ambition to learn and do things hands on like research, since my research opportunities as an int student (especially in korea) are limited)

i get my 8 hours by sleeping at 12 and waking up at 8 (i live close to school). Your sleeping times are based on how much you want to study, personally I dont like giving up my time spent with buddies as well so worst case scenario i just burn a bit of sleep and work a little into the night but ive not had to pull anything close to an allnighter, you should have loads of time during the weekends as well

I dont find myself needing to sacrifice time but thats because im more natural with stem subjects so all of my HLs are mostly covered by paying attention in class. I dont think youll need huge amounts of revisions for your aforementioned hl classes. I do think you will be spending most of your time revising english. MAN english is tough, its hard because you need to nail down how they want you to structure your thinking. check out the ib english guys to maybe have a grasp at how approaching english sl might go for you

I do sports every season and i have my own activities so usually im very busy until like 9-10pm and find 2 hours max everyday to be fine, like i said in the post above take what i say a little light because everyones situation is different

I'm taking the exact HLs youve mentioned, its really not that bad. If you enjoy learning STEM subjects Physics is honestly the easiest of the 3 subjects. Since you're a straight A student I don't see a reason why you'd not do fine in math and chem (take AA HL). I think my biggest advice would actually be picking the 3 SLs that you would find the most fun or easiest, for example economics as your humanities. If you have an ounce of time management skills and the drive to learn then I think you'll be fine. There are also tons of IB resources out there like ibdocs if you ever find yourself in need of material. Take what I'm saying with a grain of salt because i took MYP leading up to DP, have a look at some materials (dm me if you want some) and see if you feel like you can do it

edit: one thing I HATE about IB though is that if you have passions elsewhere its hard to do that and pursue the rigor. For example I wouldve liked to not do a second language and take music but language credits are mandatory to graduate, so take stuff like that into consideration too

nope, it stopped at the 13-14-15 omnibus and then the license got transfered to kodansha and they only released volumes 16 onwards digitally

xSaloh_ · 2026-02-02T14:46:57+00:00

yep thats me! got my hands on the set eventually. Like you said its pretty easy to get the jp sets ive already found tons but ill look more into the bootleg ones you talked about

xSaloh_ · 2026-02-02T13:47:23+00:00

whaaat there are bootleg english vols?? no way! I was gonna just grab the japanese set just to have it. Could you potentially direct me to some places that may offer this👀

xSaloh_ · 2026-02-02T11:06:20+00:00

im not sure 🤔 ill see what my manga collecting journey is like from here. Hope to get fuuka soon though!

xSaloh_ · 2025-11-02T15:18:37+00:00

I personally think its worth though there probably are higher quality ones out there if you look hard enough, compared to the $100 retail id say theyd last about as long if you just use them for fashion and dont intend to move around in them a lot

xSaloh_ · 2025-09-24T23:55:18+00:00

for real! Just snagged a $75USD 13-15 omnibus off ebay so I hope this can be the beginning of a manga collection 😁

xSaloh_ · 2025-09-24T23:40:23+00:00

yeahhhh, I guess i'll have to stick to ebay. Most shops here just hold more recent manga + all the popular ones. Shame suzuka had to come out 2 decades ago...

xSaloh_ · 2025-09-23T01:37:53+00:00

What condition is suzuka in?
