[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I attended RM IB program in the early 90s. The workload was intense and it was an incredibly difficult, stressful experience for me. 4-5 hours of homework per night was the norm, and I struggled to keep up. In my opinion it was way too much stress and pressure for a 15-16 year old. I dropped out of the program after 10th grade and returned to my home high school. AP/honors classes were a breeze after the IB program. I'm glad I had understanding parents who didn't pressure me to stay in the program. College and law school were low stress compared to the IB program stress. A couple of friends who I met in the program dropped out of school entirely. If my kids decide to apply I wouldn't stand in their way, but I wouldn't encourage them to do it either.[/quote] Do you regret doing IB? [/quote]
