The IBO's program is very ironic, in my opinion, because it requires volunteer hours (when you require it its not really volunteering....). I'm not a big fan of it because, aside from the things I've heard from my friends' parents, its been pushed too hard in our school and we dont even have a very good langauge program (one of IB's focuses is internationalism and thus language), having only 3 different, western languages at present.
it's allowed to be present in each county of your state..it's a program that can be started as a preschooler up to 12th grade...

you have to test out in math, science of some sort, English, a foreign language, and 6th subject (can be like art, computer science, anthropology, etc.)
and you do cas--which is creativity, action and service

service is u'r volunteering
action basically yeah working out, running around...getting exercise
creativity..yeah...using other side of u'r brain

each school has a different program but guide lines are the same...test out in may for each subject with different amount of tests aka papers and you have to write certain things or do certain things for each class...internal and external assessments....internal while in class...external end of the year tests...

hope that helps a bit....it's all around...

go IB!!!
either love it or hate it basically...some say it's like ap..tad different tad the same..lol

getting the diploma yes can allow you to go out of like the us for school since its a recognized standard diploma for the world rather than a normal us high school diploma
it helps for us in Florida if we get our diploma full bright futures scholorship money if we don't already qualify for it and like ap can get you out of a few classes if you score high enough... 4 is passing 7 is the highest...

and i'm almost out of it lol...few more tests to go and i'm done...i hope i get my diploma pray that i do for me
if your in IB i feel u'r pain....
