[quote=Anonymous]My kids in an IB program in MCPS, and I'm by no means an IB expert....but kids at our school are instructed they must take TOK their 11th/12th grade. They aren't allowed to take more than 3 HLs. Since IB HLs are 2 year classes, it's my understanding that it's not uncommon for kids to take the first year of a 2-year HL, and then decide they just aren't that into it, and decide not to take the second year of hte HL. I don't think that looks bad, since even the first year of an HL is a pretty advanced class. Kids at our school were instructed to do that for Comp Sci for their third HL, as it was not clear they would have an instructor to offer the second year of the comp sci HL. TOK is also supposed to be one of the most significant parts of the IB program. So I'd drop the HL that he cares about least, and take TOK.[/quote]
