[quote=Anonymous]My DD is currently a junior doing full IB at W-L - the workload is very heavy and it is pretty intense. She went from getting all As -- including AP classes -- to a mix of As and Bs. She has had to work much harder -- good time management and executive functioning is key for success in IB.

I don't have the context to compare to the workload at Gonzaga, but my DD has multiple quizzes and tests each week, as well as in-class essays and other written homework. It is a ton of work. What might be different is that they are allowed to do test corrections up to a certain grade if needed. The teachers also all seem pretty great and students can meet with them during General's Period (it's a short free period) or at different times to discuss their work and how to do better.

If you're interested in looking at college admissions related to kids in the IB program, I'd recommend looking at W-L's Instagram for the 2025 class: https://www.instagram.com/wldecisions25/  The IB logo is used whenever a kid was in the program. The list is pretty impressive. [/quote]
