For Current Grade 12 IB Students
Grade 12 IB can be a stressful year. Not only do you have IB assessments and exams, you also have Diploma Exams, practices and games for your team, volunteering, homework, applying for university, family commitments, … It feels as though you’re being pulled in every direction.
The most important skill for an IB student to learn is TIME MANAGEMENT! Learn to keep track of deadlines in a calendar (on-line, paper, whatever works for you), work on assignments BEFORE they’re due, attend Success Support, and don’t be afraid to ask your teachers for help when you start feeling stressed. Teachers want you to be successful: if you’re working hard, they’ll work just as hard to help you achieve your goals.
The Core
- CAS: CAS Log and Expectations
- EE: the Extended Essay
- TOK: Theory of Knowledge
