[quote=Anonymous]I have experience with one of my DC who did the full IB. In addition to 6 rigorous classes and Theory of Knowledge class, your DC will need to write an Extended Essay on a topic of their choice. They will have an advisor, but they will write this ON THEIR OWN. If your child does not have good writing and organizational skills, I would think this type of assignment at age 17 would be alot to take on. My DC was overseas for the IB, so we had nothing to do with any academic work. DC was totally on her own. She was able to succeed in full IB because of her strength in writing, and overall academic strengths. This would not have been the right diploma program for her siblings, who would have needed more guidance. And yes, excelling in IB does have a positive impact on college admissions. [/quote]
