[quote=Anonymous]the IB diploma also requires achieving Level 5 competency in a language - which generally means at least 4 years of language and this is a big hurdle for many students. it's a bit surprising that an IB student would find UVA to be a "breeze": most IB students are keen to challenge themselves and it's pretty common to find that they work very hard at their studies, and (2) that they would not pursue the same rigor in their studies in college. We hear, and have personal experience, that IB students are well prepared for college level work. That said, those we know are taking challenging courses and not "breezing" through their studies at the Naval Academy, Princeton, Chicago and Columbia. [/quote]
